Biography
Rebecca de Mornay studied acting at the Lee Strasberg Institute in Los Angeles. She debuted as a movie actress in Francis Ford Coppola’s One From the Heart (1983), but her big leap to fame took place with the box-office hit Risky Business (1983), by Paul Brickman, a film she starred in opposite a young and practically unknown Tom Cruise. Her role as a young prostitute who sets up her business in the home of Joel Goodsen (Cruise) while his parents are out of town won her the critics’ unanimous applause. She would later go on to be outstanding in the role of a psychopathic nanny in The Hand That Rocks the Cradle (1992), by Curtis Hanson, and the erotic thriller Never Talk to Strangers (1995), by Peter Hall, where her co-star was Antonio Banderas.
