Geena Davis BIOGRAPHY
After high school, Geena entered New England College in New Hampshire and then transferred the next year to Boston University where she majored in drama. With good reviews, Geena moved to Los Angeles where she was cast as Wendy in the short-lived, but critically acclaimed Television Series "Buffalo Bill" (1983). She then returned to the big screen in the below average Transylvania 6-5000 (1985) followed by the successful Chevy Chase movie Fletch (1985). From there on, she was on a roll with future husband Jeff Goldblum in the horror remake of The Fly (1986). More successful were Tim Burton's dark comedy Beetle Juice (1988) and The Accidental Tourist (1988). For the last film, she was the surprise winner of the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. Their first film was Speechless (1994) which flopped at the box office. Undeterred, Renny decided to film the big budget Cutthroat Island (1995) starring pirate Geena, which also flopped. Geena has since starred in the thriller, The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996) and played Eleanor Little in Stuart Little (1999) and Stuart Little 2 (2002).
