Wow...she turned down a lot of parts that would have made her a mega star. She will always be a beautiful sexy woman to me ....enjoy the few love interest parts that don't involve the Dark side she sometimes plays. But my favorite movie of hers is the Hudsucker Proxy and I like to replay the part where she whistles in the newsroom ....her Katherine Hepburn voice was a turn on. Always on the look out for next role

She turned down the chance to play Lorraine in Back to the Future (she hated Spielberg for his affiliation with John Landis).

What’s wrong?

He killed her father.

Landis was the director. It still comes down to the stunt people to make sure a stunt is safe or not. The stunt people are the experts and they should have made a different call.

Is there a source for this? I can't imagine Spielberg offering her that part just after being sued by her.

"The Ultimate Visual History" book by one of the publicists (Michael Klastorin).
