Holly Hunter might object to being called "spunky,"
but she fits the definition in the very best sense: compact and
yet forcefully energetic, she's also charismatic, sexy, and uncompromisingly
bold in her choice of roles. Her unmistakable Georgia twang was
silenced in The Piano, for which she won the Academy Award, but
her spitfire delivery of dialogue is essential to her appeal,
whether she's expressing vulnerable emotion, rapid wit, or endearing
vulnerability. Fearlessly riding the boundary between appealing
leads and daring supporting roles, Holly
Hunter tackles every character with intelligence, adventure,
and no small degree of, yes, spunk. Holly
Hunter films include
The Piano
Broadcast News
Miss Firecracker
Raising Arizona
Roe Vs. Wade
Living Out Loud
