Kimberly Williams — (MINI-SERIES) The 10th Kingdom;  Part 1 of 3  IMDb info
10th Kingdom is pretty clever.  The effects are first rate, the acting is superb, & the script has flashes of brilliance.  Unfortunately, it also has a few uneven parts... but I put it down as very much a net plus... especially since Kimberly plays the Damsel.  For those who completely missed it, the premise: The Brothers Grimm meets The Brothers Gibb, fairy tales & bedtime stories are real, & Kimberly's character Virginia goes quite literally through the looking glass to the alternate universe of the Nine Kingdoms.  Our first stop: The Troll King's combination Torture Chamber & Shoe Closet.

[Who says Trolls don't have a sense of humor? J  I assume that decoration is only painted on.]
"Welcome to the Troll Kingdom.  Wanna play 'This Little Piggy?'"
[Cute tummy...]
[...& cute yabos! J ]
"How 'bout this one."
"Uh, it went to market?"
"(Hey, a new guy.)"
"& who are you?"
"I'm the Troll King."
"(Hope he's not lookin'
for a Troll Queen.)"
"So, what ya gonna
do to her, huh Dad?"

What are ya gonna do to sweet, innocent Virginia?  Huh, Mr. Troll King?
Inquiring minds want to know!
By the way, this scene has the following snippet of genuine dialogue:
Virginia:
"I'll tell you anything you want to know."
Troll:
"Torture first, talk later.  It's better that way."
Like I said, flashes of brilliance. J
