In 1994, England's Julia Ormond was poised to be the next big thing in Hollywood.
The New York Times magazine even did a piece on the publicity involved in launching the highly anticipated career of Ormond.
After her introduction to American audiences in Legends of the Fall as the tragic Susannah opposite Brad Pitt, Ormond's next choices failed to propel her career the way Legends had seemed to promise.
Legends of the Fall was followed by another period epic, First Knight, in which she played Guinevere in the King Arthur story, also starring Sean Connery and Richard Gere (with a terrible dye job).
First Knight bombed and Ormond's next film, the highly anticipated 1995 remake of Sabrina, in which she played the lead role formerly played by Audrey Hepburn, failed to meet expectations.
Ormond landed the role in the '97 Smilla's Sense of Snow which was the filmed version of the highly acclaimed novel by the same name but the film received almost no publicity.
Ormond's career has been comprised of a number of choices that at the time seemed like safe blockbuster bets but have led her astray.
Changing her strategy, Ormond has begun to star in smaller, independent films. Recently, Ormond starred in the acclaimed Russian film The Barber of Siberia by director Nikita Mikhalkov.
The Barber of Siberia was the opening film of the 1999 Cannes films festival and has had enormous international publicity, putting Ormond back in an international forum through channels other than Hollywood.
