Bridget Fonda....what happened?


I think Bridget Fonda is a true descendent of the Fonda clan. Loads of talent and great looks.. so why hasn't she had a higher profile career?

She looks so much like Peter it is uncanny. Must have her mother's coloring..or I think Peter's mother Frances was blonde?

She was great in Godfather 111 and lovely in this. Can anyone tell me why she hasn't been a major star?

I found this via Google. I always enjoyed her & thought she was absolutely charming in "It Could Happen to You".

Pretty much decided she didn't want to do it (film career) any more and stopped some 14 years ago ... like that. She was pretty big though in the early to mid 90's.🐭

She got fed up with acting and found a happier life.

Yes and I certainly wish her well. Talented family and Aunt Jane would be a hard act to follow.

Must be nice to be born into entertainment world "royalty" and have a chance to try out the career and then marry a successful composer and not have to struggle all oyur life.

Some have it easy. And some of us shouldn't have been born.

Juuuust feeling sorry for myself today.

She married musician Danny Elfman in 2003 and decided to be a mother and housewife instead...
