The life of a Hollywood actor is difficult and miserable. You are a celebrity today, but no one will remember you tomorrow. These women shone in films in the 1980s and 1990s, when Russia was flooded with Western films, and now they have to work on uninteresting projects or maybe go out of business.
Carrie Anne Moss
The classic movie “The Matrix,” in which she played Neo’s lover Trinity, catapulted her to fame. Then came the second and third installments, followed by dozens of films whose titles no one will ever remember.
Brooke Shields
Your parents probably secretly saw the movie “Blue Lagoon”, which contains lewd scenes. Brooke, the attractive actress, played the lead role. It was in the 1980s! She continued to shine, to work as a model and to live surprising romantic adventures thereafter. Except for the role of a low-brow image, nothing has changed in principle.
Jodie Foster
“The Silence of the Lambs”, “Anna and the King” and other films “The Accused” – it is easier to count the absences of Jodie in the films of the 90s. However, in recent years the star has stepped back and now participates in production projects.
Emmanuelle Behar
A starring role in the French film “Left of the Elevator” catapulted Behar to fame. The stunning blonde beauty was a man’s dream come true in the 1990s, but she quickly faded into obscurity. She turns in a few films and leads parallel humanitarian actions.
Meg Ryan
Meg’s career peaked in the 1990s when she appeared in films like Sleepless in Seattle, You’ve Got Mail and French Kiss. Following this, the singer retired from the day and focused on parenthood. She returned in 2015 with the film “Ithaca”, in which she not only played one of the main roles, but also directed.
Mina Suvari
You’ve probably had dreams of Mina while watching Beauty and the Beast. She’s also appeared in “American Pie” and on the covers of men’s magazines, but recently disappeared.
Andy McDowell
The actress rose to prominence through her performance in Groundhog Day. Subsequently, there were other successful projects, followed by a dark period in the 2000s. Andie decided to become a model and the face of a cosmetics company. She still appears in mediocre soap operas.
Julia Ormond
“Legends of the Fall”, “First Knight” and “Sabrina” demonstrated Julia’s tenacity as a performer. But eventually, the jobs got narrower and narrower. She eventually moved on to television soap operas in the 2000s.
Kelly Mc Gillis
She was nominated for a Golden Globe for her performance in The Witness. Then her romance with Harrison Ford became world buzz. His best work, however, is considered “Top Gun”, a film starring Tom Cruise. She hasn’t had many major roles or filmography since then.
Erica Eleniak
Erika started her career as a model before becoming Baywatch’s main star. She later appeared in other productions based on them, although she struggled with other parts.
Carrie Otis
When she starred in “Wild Orchid” with Mickey Rourke in the mid-1980s, she caught the attention of men. The film’s romance came true when the couple tied the knot in 1992. They separated soon after, and Otis married an environmentalist.
Alyssa Milano
Phoebe’s personal favorite from ‘Charmed’. However, Milano has also been on Melrose Place, Who’s the Boss and other shows. She returned to acting after the birth of her daughter, while writing books and doing charity work.
Rene Russo
The action comedy “Lethal Weapon 3” catapulted her to national prominence, and in the late 1990s the movie “The Thomas Crown Affair,” starring Pete Brosnan and Rene Russo, was released. She then starred in unnoticed films until her role in “The Avengers” brought her back into the spotlight.
Jacqueline Bisset
“The Wild Orchid” and “Anna Karenina” are two of Jacqueline’s major works. Bisset is now 75, although she continues to play small roles.
Nastasja Kinski
Nastassja Kinski became famous for her roles in the film versions of Russian classics: “Springtime Waters” and “The Humiliated and Insulted”. Tarantino offered her the job in ‘Inglorious Basterds,’ but something went wrong and she declined. She frequently visits Russia, indicating that things are not going well.
Kathleen Turner
The actress, who was nominated for an Oscar for ‘Peggy Sue Got Married’ and won a Golden Globe for ‘Romancing a Stone’, is now facing health issues. Kathleen was diagnosed with a serious autoimmune disease in the 1990s and her treatment had an impact on her physical appearance. Turner recovered from her illness and returned to acting and film, although she was not a big hit.
