Primed for a comeback


Tarantino should put her in his next film. Very talented actress who made a great Lolita.

Comeback? To those of us who appreciate beautiful ladies with beautiful talent and beautiful intelligence, she never left.

True, but I was referring to her career.

She has a jaw-dropping sixteen projects in various stages of completion at the moment. Unfortunately, none of them appear to be very high profile. But at least she's getting regular work.

I don't think she was ever a well-known name, but I'd love to see her return to form as an indie darling. She, Brad Renfro, Bijou Phillips and a few others quietly made a bunch of great, dark coming-of-age movies in the early 2000s and it'd be cool if something like that struck up again.

Also, I can't help noting Tarantino is a pig and the world would be done a great service if no one were in any more of his films. Blech.

"Comeback" to what, high profile movies? She has been steadily working for twenty years, and in an industry that pays better for even small movies and requires less work than that of your average person's job. Her net worth is likely greater than that of many CEOs who stress themselves out.
