In 1989 Jodie Foster won her first Oscar for The Accused playing Sarah Miller, a young woman who suffers a brutal gang rape in a bar who is determined to bring justice to the perpetrators, including the ones who encouraged and cheered on the attack. She actually thought this performance would ruin her career entirely and prepared for the worst. Her fellow nominees included Meryl Streep for A Cry in the Dark (or Evil Angels depending where you’re from (aka ‘the dingo has my baby)), Melanie Griffith for Working Girl, Sigourney Weaver for Gorillas in the Mist (was also nominated for a supporting role for Working Girl), and Glenn Close for Dangerous Liaisons.
Join host Kyle Brownrigg with guest host Fiona O’Brien as they discuss.
