Her versatility and wide-range have been praised in such films as Millers Crossing, The First Wives Club, Meet Joe Black, Mona Lisa Smile, The Hoax and Used People. Award-winning actress Marcia Gay Harden has forged a remarkable body of work, always staying true to her chameleon style of “becoming the character.” Her character portraits have been described by critics as “searing”, “heartbreaking”, “inventive”, “pure and profane simultaneously”, “astonishing”, “authentic” and “sensuous.” From the glamorous Ava Gardner in Sinatra, to the artist Lee Krasner in Pollock (for which she won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress), to the down-and-out Celeste in Mystic River (another role which received an Academy Award nomination), Marcia has created a signature style based in character transformation.
