SEAN YOUNG - Linda Bronco

Sean Young moves into the next phase of her career as the attractive, headstrong and devoted mother figure Linda Bronco. Young's performance as Linda has both dramatic and comedic nuances that previously surfaced in her other films, including BLADE RUNNER, ACE VENTURA: PET DETECTIVE, STRIPES, DUNE, COUSINS, NO WAY OUT and WALL STREET.

Additionally, she had prominent roles in several critically praised television shows, including Robert Altman's GUN (ABC), WITNESS TO THE EXECUTION (NBC), EVERYTHING TO GAIN (CBS) and UNDER THE BILTMORE CLOCK (PBS).

In the fall of 1999, she stars in the forthcoming release SPECIAL DELIVERY with Penny Marshall. And not one to rest on her laurels, she follows POOR WHITE TRASH with two more buzz-worthy independent films. She stars in THE AMATI GIRLS (also starring Mercedes Ruehl, Cloris Leachman, Lee Grant, Paul Sorvino, Mark Harmon and Jamey Sheridan) for Triple Axel/Tricor Ent. & FilmArt (a new division of Paramount) and SUGAR & SPICE (directed by Francine McDougall and produced by Oscar winner Wendy Finerman of FORREST GUMP acclaim) for New Line.

"I enjoyed getting the opportunity to play something so different from the cool femme and bad girl roles I have played in the past," she reflects. "Linda's a radical departure -- a low-income, poorly educated woman who can be seen as trashy. I could describe her as 'rode hard and put up wet.' However, despite the fact that she has been through a lot, she is no victim and nobody's fool. She learns things the hard way, but she lands on her feet, getting wiser in the process." "This character is so different that I had to look deep inside myself to discover who she really was. But we do have a few things in common -- like her, there is nothing I wouldn't do for my children."
