#TBT: Nell

/ No Comments

1994 was a great year for movies and an especially good year for Jodie Foster. For those who don’t know, Jodie burst onto the scene as a child star in Maritn Scorsese’s Taxi Driver making her a star. However, it was her role as Clarice Starling in Silence of the Lambs that turned her into an international superstar. These days, Foster uses her talent as a much sought after director and has helmed many episodes of the hit Netflix series, Orange is the New Black.

But, in 199r she starred in Nell portraying a beautiful young hermit woman with many secrets and racking up many nominations, including one for the Academy Award.

Take a look at Nell…
