Then again, with Hollywood actors - particularly ones with immediate family in the business - "retiring" doesn't mean anything. You can come back whenever you want. It's hardly like people taking early retirement from regular day jobs and then changing their mind a couple of years later.

It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

I wonder why Christopher Guest never put her in any of his films. It's true that there aren't that many great roles for 40-50-something women, but her own husband does them very well - Maybe they don't want to work together.

I just hope he isn't retiring from doing films! He's hysterical!

Yeah, she is done with acting, but it's not of her own choice. She was done with acting when producers and directors stopped putting her in their movies, not when she "quit." I like her a lot, but let's be realistic. Nobody's been interested in seeing/putting her in movies for about 20 years now.

i have to wonder how much of that is because she's getting older vs. how much of it has to do with her no-bullshit attitude screwing her out of getting cast in more stuff. i can see her being offered parts in stupid sitcoms, and playing MILF roles in teen comedies, but i can also see her returning scripts with the word CRAP scrawled on the front. lol

whatever. she's cool, she's got a fabulously bitchy sense of humor, and her husband is one of the funniest people alive. shrug

possibly. but considering the majority of her work (barring a few things), I doubt that's the case. She's mostly been in crap.

yes and she hasnt been totally naked in a movie yet! her career is incomplete!


Interesting you say that - I've always thought that the monologue at the end of one of the old NPG Ahdio Shows (where a woman talks to her friend about being an actress who strips off in movies for more money) sounds like Jamie Lee Curtis. Totally sounds like her. Anyone else know what I'm talking about?

Maybe she decided this finally after watching Christmas With The Kranks and decided not to risk subjecting the world to any more shit. I think Dan Aykroyd should follow suit. The last good thing he did was Grosse Point Blank.
