Watching legal eagles on hbo go and I remember she was poised to be one of the big stars of the 80s and that never happened. Heck I hadn't heard about her in anything and had forgotten about her until tonight. Drugs? |
isnt she from urban cowboy and officer and the gentleman? |
Perhaps because she has no talent and has a history of farting on her castmates?
|
Very fickle business and fans. Some actors make you wonder how they keep getting movie offers. |
She was known to be very difficult. |
I think she married Tim Hutton, had a child and dropped out of movies on her own volition for several years. |
This is what I read. She chose family over work. |
They made a whole documentary about this -- "Searching for Debra Winger" -- and about women aging in Hollywood in general. But, yes, she dropped out of her own volition. She has talked about in recent years, especially when her book came out a few years ago. |
I hear she's starting a detective agency with Barbera Hershy and Lori Petty. Their first case is looking for the past two decades. |
Don't forget "Black Widow." She was so good in that movie with Theresa Russell. If you haven't seen it, find it and watch. |
Maybe she didn't want to play the game. |
One word: crazy. Went through bad divorce with Timothy Hutton and completely lost it mentally. Inside information. |
She was in the third season of In Treatment on HBO. I don't think her role was universally praised, but I thought she was pretty decent. I'm still bummed about that show being cancelled. |
She has some incredible, iconic roles under her belt.
Terms of Endearment, Officer and a Gentleman, Urban Cowboy. |
Why is no one mentioning will and grace? That's a show we should be discussing... |
