She won an oscar a few years ago! I remember saying, "Isn't that the girl from Prince of Darkness?" She gave a pretty inspiring little speech about how she thought she'd reached the end of the road as an actress and then found a new life working behind the scenes.
Oh man, she was so hot in an episode of Moonlighting called Sleep talkin' Guy. She played a hooker who was sleeping with a guy from the mob, who talked in his sleep. David Addison found out and started paying her for inside info to start cracking cases.
Seemed clever and beautiful.
