Valerie Perrine BIOGRAPHY
Perrine made an impressive screen debut slyly parodying sex-bomb types, as porn queen Montana Wildhack, the object of hero Billy Pilgrim's fantasies, in the film adaptation of Kurt Vonnegut's time- tripping satire Slaughterhouse-Five (1972). She won Best Actress honors at the Cannes Film Festival and was nominated for a Best Actress Oscar for her frank, accomplished performance as comedian Lenny Bruce's stripper wife in 1974's Lenny She had good parts in a handful of other films including W. C. Fields and Me and The Electric Horseman (1979), but in Superman (1978) and its 1980 sequel she succumbed to playing the kind of ditzy bimbo role (as Lex Luthor's buxom companion) she'd managed to avoid earlier in her career. Her nadir was reached in the hideous disco extravaganza Can't Stop the Music (1980). 1982's The Border in which she held her own with Jack Nicholson, was a brief return to form. Recent films, including Maid to Order (1987), Bright Angel and Hit Man (both 1991), have wasted her talents, although she did land a solid part in the 1989 TV remake of Sweet Bird of Youth and a good character role as Dennis Hopper's ex-girlfriend in Boiling Point (1993).
