Debra Winger was amazing


I first remember seeing her as Wonder Woman's little sister on Wonder Woman. She was charismatic.

Urban Cowboy. Officer and a Gentleman. Terms of Endearment. I was in high school in the early 80s and Debra Winger was IT!

I remember seeing the coming attractions for Mike's Murder and then...nothing. Her career seems to have stalled. I caught Black Widow on video but it didn't do much at the box office. Debra Winger was a huge star. Huge. She was as big as Meryl Streep in the early 80s. I wish her career had sustained.

I just caught that 2-part episode ("The Feminum Mystique") and Debra was sexy and charismatic as Wonder Girl. In fact, she took attention away from Lynda Carter, the star of the show!
