Wild girl with a heart of gold
|
她来自美国影史上最著名的家族之一：巴里摩尔家族。她的经历似乎比她出演的电影更传奇：11个月开始拍广告，7岁出演ET(《外星人》)中那个和外星人接吻的小女孩，12岁开始酗酒吸毒，14岁自杀未遂，19岁结束两个月的婚姻，创办制片公司......巴里摩尔是少数没有消失的童星之一，1992年她重返银幕，并接拍电视剧和广告，《有毒的常青藤》使她获得一线影星的地位。此后她在《惊声尖叫》、《永远的蝙蝠侠》、《霹雳天使》等影片中也都有不俗的表现。

-Drew Barrymore

Comments
Drew Barrymore certainly gets high marks for being head strong. Whether dealing with her drug problems, her legal separation from her parents, or the vices of fame, she has managed to rise above the pitfalls of being famous, with a promising acting career. No longer the nice little girl from ET, Drew has turned heads in Hollywood over the last few years with both comedic and dramatic turns in film.
personality&talent
Her laugh is contagious, her personality is sincere, and her charm is as sweet as honey. Put simply, she is definitely someone you can have a conversation with, unlike other top actresses in Hollywood today.
Acting as a perky teenager won't qualify her for an Oscar nomination anytime soon, but she is considered talented by her peers, which might be her greatest compliment.
accomplishments&fame
Her career has a roller coaster quality. She was successful at a very young age, and then followed up with mostly B-movie appearances, only to surge back to the top of her field in the late 90's in several major studio hits.
natural beauty
She can be best described as cute. She is by no means drop dead gorgeous. Tabloid remarks about her weight are mostly unfounded since she usually maintains in fine shape.
personal style
People love Drew Barrymore, but stylistically speaking, she dresses like an Oklahoma farm girl half of the time, and the other half, she seems to wear dresses that seem don't fit her so well. She's got her life together, now all she has to do is get her wardrobe in line.
bio
Drew Barrymore began her career at such an early age, we can say she was practically born on stage. At just 11 months, she appeared in a Puppy Choice Dog Food commercial, and got her first movie role at the age of two, playing a boy in Suddenly Love.
At five, she appeared in Altered States, and later made herself into a household name with the blockbuster ET. She was described by good friend and director Steven Spielberg as a teenager who was "13 going on 29".
She was born on February 22, 1975 into a family famous for its love of being in the spotlight. Her kin include the legendary Lionel, John and Ethel Barrymore. Troubled times came for Barrymore, when she tried alcohol for the first time at age 12, and marijuana at age 13. Soon after, she turned to cocaine, and stirred controversy with her near nude appearances in Far From Home, and was forced into ASAP Family Treatment Center, a drug rehab clinic.
She stole her mother's credit card and escaped the clinic. She was unsuccessful, however, and was returned to rehab by authorities. She made a special appearance in a television movie warning teens about the dangers of drug abuse, only to fall back into her addiction.
1989 was her all-time low; she unsuccessfully attempted suicide, and was sent back to rehab. She was finally able to overcome her addictions, and decided she no longer needed any parental aid. She divorced her mother at the age of 15.
Her career began its recovery with a role in Poison Ivy.
Her career continued to blossom, with roles in Mad Love, Batman Forever and Boys in the Side. A 1996 role in Scream and a critically acclaimed performance in Woody Allen's Everyone Says I Love You confirmed her return to the top of her profession.
Barrymore has continued to persevere through a lot of adversity. Her persistence and energy have helped her recover from the difficulties of growing up in front of the camera and the public eye, and have shaped her into the strong and determined woman she is today.(SD-Agencies)
