Gina Gershon has starred in many great movies, including popular films like ‘Face Off’ and ‘Killer Joe’. She’s also known for her roles in the provocative films ‘Showgirls’ (1995) and ‘Bound’ (1996).
Bound is a fantastic thriller featuring a compelling story and starring Jennifer Tilly. The film, written and directed by the Wachowskis, centers on Corky, a tough ex-convict, and her lover Violet, who team up to steal millions from the mob and frame Violet’s corrupt boyfriend, Caesar. The movie is particularly known for a beautifully sensitive love scene between the two actresses, which resonated with the LGBTQ+ community. Bound was a critical success and paved the way for the Wachowskis’ later, groundbreaking film, The Matrix.
Showgirls stood out as a particularly controversial project. Director Paul Verhoeven was a major force in Hollywood at the time, fresh off the success of films like Robocop, Total Recall, and Basic Instinct. While known for pushing boundaries with sex and violence, Showgirls took it further, leading to issues with US censorship. The film also marked Elizabeth Berkley’s first leading role, but it was met with harsh criticism that significantly stalled her career for many years.
We interviewed Gina Gershon about her experiences with both films and how she feels about them after 30 years. Here’s what she shared with us…
