Susan Sarandon
Birth Date: October 4 1946
Birth Place: N/A
It was after the 1968 Democratic convention and there was a casting
call for a film with several roles for the kind of young people who
had disrupted the convention. Two recent graduates of Catholic
University in Washington DC, went to the audition in New York for
_Joe (1970)_ (qv). Chris Sarandon, who had studied to be an actor,
was passed over. His wife Susan got the major role of the daughter
of an advertising executive. Dad kills her drug dealer boyfriend
and befriends an opinionated assembly line worker who collects
guns. Five years later Sarandon made the film where fans of cult
classics have come to know her as Janet, who gets entangled with
transvestite Dr. Frank n Furter in _Rocky Horror Picture Show, The
(1975)_ (qv). More than 15 years after beginning her career
Sarandon at last actively campaigned for a great role -- Annie in
_Bull Durham (1988)_ (qv), flying at her own expense from Rome to
Los Angeles. "It was such a wonderful script ... and did away with
a lot of myths and challenged the American definition of success",
she said. "When I got there, I spent some time with Kevin
[Costner], kissed some ass at the studio and got back on a plane".
Her romance with the "Bull Durham" supporting actor, Tim Robbins,
had produced three sons by 1992 and put Sarandon in the position of
leaving her domestic paradise only to accept roles that really
challenged her. The result was four Academy Award nominations in
the 1990s and best actress for _Dead Man Walking (1995)_ (qv). Her
first Academy Award nomination was for Louis Malle's _Atlantic City
(1980)_ (qv). When Robert Hofler, writing a 1994 article for BUZZ,
asked Sarandon whether it was difficult being directed by the man
she lived with (Tim Robbins for "Dead Man Walking"), she answered:
"I lived and worked with another director, and when you do that,
you're in a real hostage situation. There are situations where
you'd walk off the picture, but you can't walk because you've gotta
go home and make the tuna melt". Hofler: "You're talking about
Louis Malle?" Sarandon: "Yeah". Hofler: "Malle directed you in
'Pretty Baby' and 'Atlantic City'. Did working with him contribute
to your breaking up? Sarandon: "Nah. I'd quote Proust on that one.
It was just time."
