The career nudography of Georgina Cates:
She was a favorite of mine, and then she just disappeared from sight.
You may have noticed that all of her credits were concentrated in the
period 1995-99, when she was in her early 20s. She then married Skeet
Ulrich, had twins, and retired to Virginia at the ripe old age of 24 to
raise a family. She and the Skeeter are now divorced and she has started
working again. Even after all that time off, she's still only 33.
Some Sherilyn Fenn
Although she is only 43 and still working, she hasn't done a nude
scene since 1993. Her film nudity legacy is still intact because the
scenes she did back then were so impressive. We've covered Two Moon
Junction (1988) ad nauseum, so here are a couple of her more obscure
roles from the same era:
While on the subject of Meridian,
Charlie Spradling also
flashed a bit in that film, so ... here's Chucky.
Marie Trintignant
Marie
Trintignant in One Summer Night in Town (1990).
Hers is a tragic story. Marie Trintignant died in 2003, age 41, from
head injuries sustained in a violent quarrel with her boyfriend,
Bertrand Cantat, the lead singer in the group Noir Désir. He was
convicted of her murder (manslaughter) in Lithuania, served time in both
Lithuanian and French prisons, and was freed on parole this past
October, despite the fact that Marie's famous mother personally
petitioned French President Sarkozy to deny the parole. Cantat served
only about 3 1/2 years of his eight year sentence.
The entire Trintignant family is in the film business. Her mother
Nadine is an auteur, and her father is the internationally famed actor
Jean-Louis Trintignant (And God Created Woman, A Man and a Woman). Marie
made her first screen appearance when she was just four years old, in a
film written and directed by her mother. At the time of Marie's death
she was just finishing a TV movie about Colette, also directed by her
mother. Nadine was thus the director of her daughter's first and last
screen appearances, some 37 years apart.
