New York: Tired after three hours of shopping in New York City, actress Jessica Lange relaxes in a rented limousine. Her pet scottie, Jake, is curled up in the corner. In her first film, Jessica stars as the woman who wins the heart of “King Kong”. The role is in the Dino De Laurentiis remake of the movie classic. Due to go on world tour to promote the movie, Jessica was given $6,000 for a wardrobe after she explained to Paramount Pictures and Dino De Laurentiis that she didn’t have “a thing to wear”.
