	NationMaster.com - Encyclopedia: Debra Winger
		Born Mary Debra Winger in Cleveland Heights, Ohio to a Jewish family, she spent several years in Israel, and served in the Israeli Armed Forces.
		Winger appeared in small roles in the nondescript Slumber Party '57 (1977), Thank God It's Friday (1978), and French Postcards (1979) before beating out more than 200 hopefuls for the lead in Urban Cowboy (1980), which paired her with John Travolta and gave her an opportunity to demonstrate her ability.
		Debra Winger is the example of a pioneer in this battle because of her decision to bow out of the industry while still in her prime.

		Partially paralyzed and blinded in one eye for several months, Winger thought long and hard about where her life was going, and decided that upon recuperating she would become an actress.
		Winger quickly made it known that she was not interested in playing the Hollywood game and was content to let long periods go by without making movies, rather than appear in something she didn't feel strongly about.
		This spurt of activity brought cheers from Winger admirers, and served as a reminder that she is one of the most gifted actresses in films.

	Bio for Debra Winger on MSN Movies
		But Winger chafed at the impositions placed on her by tight TV filming schedules and she retreated to theatrical films, where she made a most inauspicious debut in the award-losing Slumber Party '57 (1977).
		Winger became a full-fledged audience favorite for her peppery role opposite John Travolta in Urban Cowboy (1980), which led to the most famous of her "working-class" roles in An Officer and a Gentleman (1982).
		Winger never again had a box-office success to match Terms of Endearment, though she remained a darling of the film critics for her work in such little-seen epics as Mike's Murder (1984) and Black Widow (1986).

		The fulcrum of her thesis is Debra Winger, the once in-demand actress (and still quite sexy) who, between 1980 and 1984, starred in a series of box-office smashes and critical darlings that made her one of the most renown and recognized actresses of her time.
		The result is Searching For Debra Winger, a 100-minute documentary in which Arquette interviews two dozens actresses about the experience of being an aging woman in an industry entirely fixated upon looks and image.
		Searching For Debra Winger, when it works, is a compelling and insightful documentary that examines the problem of sexism and gender inequity in Hollywood with pristine clarity.

	The Austin Chronicle Screens: Video Reviews
		Winger came to prominence in 1980's Urban Cowboy, followed by the smash hits An Officer and a Gentleman and Terms of Endearment.
		But Winger was in peak form for what has been regularly described as "a stylish thriller." Paired with Russell (a most intriguing actress with a score of bad films behind her -- think Whore), Winger plays a federal agent on the tail of a chameleon-like young woman (Russell) who marries wealthy men and kills them.
		The plot is gripping and relatively fast-paced, and Winger and Russell are excellent counterpoints to each other -- Winger is earthy and likable, and Russell is sexy and sinister.

	SEARCHING FOR DEBRA WINGER - DVD
		The title, Searching for Debra Winger (referring to the inspiration that triggered the film: to discover why it is that Winger retired from show business), is made ironic by the fact that Winger has come out of retirement since to appear in her husband's shitty Big Bad Love.
		Consider that Arquette takes a moment before Fonda begins to tell Fonda how much she admires her, and then cast the rest of the interview in light of her fawning inability to edit her idol when she veers astonishingly off into the weeds.
		It's only as interesting as a Barbara Walters interview, or an "Extra!" exposé on the hardships of Hilary Duff's busy life, except that it lasts two or three times as long and bears the directing credit "Experienced By: Rosanna Arquette." She means well, I'm sure, but it still makes me want to puke.
