Why did she do Speed Racer?
Her career still hasn't recovered. One of the best actresses in Hollywood and she can barely get TV roles these days.

I don't think that was the movie that hurt her career.
shareWhich one do you think did?

I think it was a slew of movies back to back...perhaps her peformance in Sleepy Hollow (?), Prozac Nation's never to be seen in theaters ordeal, Pumpkin, Miranda, Anything Else...maybe Cursed as well? She got a lot of flack for her performance in Monster which I felt wasn't deserved. She was pretty awesome in that film, but next to Charlize's epic performance, things went down. While she's had quite a few Oscar worthy performances (Black Snake Moan, The Opposite of Sex, Monster, The Ice Storm and Prozac Nation if it would've been released to theaters), I guess maybe she's never really played the rules according to Hollywood's standards. I've been rooting for her career to skyrocket since 1996 and am still hoping foe the day to see her recognized by The Acadamey. Until then, OOHHHH WEELLLL!!! She is still, annd probably always will be, my favorite actress of all time. And I'm proud to be a fan!
shareThat's pretty much what I was thinking, thanks for writing it down.
Hollywood may not be doing it but the fans are out there, holding up her career, and always will be.
As for Speed Racer, she seems to be more all-around perfect in it than in any other role.
Cats are underdogs.

YOu're on drugs. That's the worst role she'sever had.
YOu realyl think it's better than Buffalo 66 or The Opposite of Sex?

Not talking about the role, or the movie overall, just about her as an individual-in spite of the movie. Other than that it has no interest to me. The two you mention are among my favorites.
Cats are underdogs.
Oh okay. Sorry I misunderstood.

The ones where only she was the lead. None of them were box office hits.
