Those two weeks were the longest of my life.” “So, I read for him, came back the next day to do another scene, did a camera test with Bill Hurt and then had to wait 10 business days to find out. “When I did, she said ‘don’t move, I’m going to get Larry’. When Body Heat’s casting director, Wallis Nicita, heard I was in town, she called me in to read. “I flew out to LA to audition for another film three months later and Larry still hadn’t found his actress. “I couldn’t even get in for an audition in New York because the two men who were the casting directors there said I had no film experience, so it would be a waste of time for the director, Larry Kasdan,” she recalled. I don’t know how effective it will be, but I do like the thought of starting a legal fund for women who can’t afford representation – that’s the sort of thing that appeals to me because it’s practical.”Ī lifelong activist, Kathleen began her career on the stage in 1977, but was catapulted to international stardom four years later with her debut film role as a femme fatale in Body Heat. “I’m glad it’s being exposed and it’s way overdue. “Even if there were opportunities I missed, I would have been so unhappy anyway, so what would have been the point? “I was unhappy there, so in a sense, I escaped all of that. “People said it would affect my career and ability to have choices, but I said I couldn’t be there. “There was an inherent contempt, I would sense that, and I would be out there working and would feel insecure about myself and under attack, so I would get on the first plane back to New York. Speaking ahead of her visit to Scotland with her first cabaret show, Finding My Voice, the 63-year-old Oscar nominee said: “I never lived in LA and I realised in hindsight that it was very much because I couldn’t stand the feeling, the culture towards women, out there. The star of Romancing The Stone and The War Of The Roses believes the Me Too and Time’s Up campaigns, which raise awareness of sexual violence towards women and the connected need for change in the workplace, are “way overdue”. SCREEN legend Kathleen Turner says she refused to live in Los Angeles at the height of her career because of Hollywood’s sexism.
