Education: Herbert Berghoff Studio, New York, NY Attractively sharp-featured Canadian-born actress of Yugoslavian parentage gained notice in BLAZE (1989). As Blaze Starr, Davidovich was the celebrated Louisiana stripper for whose love Paul Newman's Governor Earl Long risked everything. The film's commercial failure slowed down Davidovich's career as a mainstream Hollywood lead. Several parts in offbeat films followed—a supporting role (she replaced an ailing Elizabeth Perkins) in the atypical romantic comedy, THE OBJECT OF BEAUTY and a lead opposite Tom Hulce in the Soviet-set drama THE INNER CIRCLE/THE PROJECTIONIST (both 1991) about Stalin's projectionist. She returned to Hollywood as the adulterous wife of a possibly psychotic John Lithgow in Brian De Palma's absurdist thriller RAISING CAIN (1992). That same year, Davidovich appeared in the unsuccessful Steve Martin vehicle LEAP OF FAITH. Moving increasingly into popular fare, she was also the hooker girlfriend of cop Wesley Snipes in the tepid crime drama BOILING POINT (1993) and the "other woman" in Richard Gere and Sharon Stone's # |

Kinderpsycholoog Dr. Nix Carter lijkt zo’n aardige kerel, nu gaat
de schat het tijdelijk
rustiger aan doen om zijn
dochter de begeleiding te
geven die ze nodig heeft.
Maar
zoals gebruikelijk is bij films van Brian ‘Dressed to Kill’De Palma: de dingen
zijn
niet zoals ze lijken. Sterker nog: de dingen zijn veel erger dan ze
lijken. Dr. Carter is
namelijk een duivelse man met vele persoonlijkheden en in
de film wordt hij door zijn
doodgewaande vader aangezet tot afschuwelijke
misdaden. Maar wie komt daar achter?
In 1993 eindige ‘Raising Cai’op de 52ste
plaats in de Video Top 100 en dat wil zeggen
dat het video publiek er wel pap
van lustte (Foto boven: Het ideale gezinnetje met John
