Karen Black


Happy Birthday to

Karen Black

71 today


I agree wholeheartedly with Karen's sentiment in the photo, but you think she could have posed with a real gravestone, the whole pic looks a little fake. Few people work as much as Karen, 5 films currently in production according to imdb, tragically all of them look awful. You've got to slow down love and just take some passion pieces, please.

I recently got the DVD of "Five Easy Pieces", which earned Karen Black her only Oscar nomination. Although I don't think she ever surpassed her early work, I have enjoyed her in a variety of character roles.

She does absolutely nail the role in Five Easy Pieces, so it's no wonder she had trouble topping it.

I confess I don't think I've seen any of her work since the early 80's.
