What's Her Name - Parker Posey


Fans of Christopher Guest’s mockumentarys surely know how great Parker Posey can be, most notably in Waiting For Guffman and Best in Show. However, she has also starred in a number of early 90’s respected independent comedies, Richard Linklater’s Dazed and Confused and Noah Baumbach’s Kicking and Screaming. In the late 90’s she finally received a number of supporting roles in more mainstream hits, You’ve Got Mail and Scream 3. Entering the 90’s she continued to be noticed to mainstream audiences in mid-level movies such as Josie and the Pussycats and Laws of Attractions. Finally she had a mostly thankless role in Superman Returns back in 2006. So her resume outside of Guest is mostly spotty, but she still maintains a presence in a number of average mainstream movies.
