A third-generation Hollywood star, Anjelica Huston
suffered a disastrous debut directed by her father, Hollywood
lion John Huston (who later repaid the debt lensing her Oscar-winning
turn in Prizzi's Honor). She rebounded with a slow but ascending
career arc paced by thoughtful, nuanced performances in roles
showcasing her striking physical presence and versatile dramatic
and comedic gifts. In the process, fame by association has been
transformed into acceptance as a skilled and disciplined actress
(and, more recently, budding director) who handles contemporary
grit and period grace, piercing drama and deadpan comedy, with
equal aplomb. Anjelica
Huston films include
The Grifters
Prizzi's Honor
The Addams Family
The Witches
