"But soon she became disillusioned."

No. Not possible. That movie was so good and brought out her natural talent so well.

"I figured if things got really bad, I could always sell it on eBay."

Plan B? Remember, with pot involved, B stands for 'busted'!

Or WAS she talking about the pot?

[Jeff Meyerson]

She showed such an amazing range in Blair Witch that I am shocked, shocked I tell you her career took this path.

[MikeyVA]

Her acting range was from A to B.

[Stev0]

But she was so good in...um...let me check IMDb...nothing anybody ever heard of, much less actually saw.

She'll be selling her a$$ on Ebay

i liked the movie. i liked pot. i quit pot in '81. i've seen the movie once. so, it all works out.

[Horace LaBadie]

Dudette.

[Clankie]

Smoke makes your eyes water too.

I'm so embarrassed. I've never seen "The Blair Witch Project". I did read Dave's review on it though. Stev0 she did a guest appearance on "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia" according to Wikipedia. I've never seen that either.

[Elon]

Never hoid of her or the movie, but after Jeff's glowing reviews, I have an urge to see it.

[Loudmouth]

There are many actors I wish would quit to grow pot. Nic Cage, Maaaatt Daaaamon, Julia Roberts, most of the Baldwins... I think Andy Dick tried to stop growing pot to act. Didn't work. I think Keanu Reeves does both. Dude.

I never saw the movie. I was told it was filmed by a "shaky camera" method, aka "Hurl-a-rator 5000". That was enough.
I don't smoke pot, either. But I sure wish Congress would. It would tighten up the Space Rangers and loosen those with terminal butt-pucker.
Maybe they could get something done over a pizza or something.

[Jeff Meyerson]

Trust me, cindy - you missed nothing. Go to youtube and check the parodies, which are as/more entertaining.

[Jeff Meyerson]

Here you go - Heather's infamous apology scene.

The pot had to help.

[PirateBoy]

Her reasoning must have been that if you can't be smokin' hot (She was never in the running for that), you can at least be smokin'.

[Ralph]

The critics never seemed to notice my acting career, despite some lead roles. I've played the witch in the Blair Witch Project, the wind in Inherit the Wind, Godot in Waiting for Godot, etc.

At least I think I did. I may have been stoned at the time.

[FLPeon]

I saw that movie. Shaky camera and lots of snot from the "actors" who were scared of something. I wasn't scared of anything and just wanted my money back. I think that was the last time I went to a theatre to see a movie. Sheesh.

[nursecindy]

My movie career has also stalled. I've been in TWO movies. Patriot Games and another one they shot last spring. I can't remember the name of it. I'm still waiting to hear if I've been nominated for an Oscar. I think I was nominated for "Best actress walking behind other people who are walking behind the actual stars in the movie". I'll remember you all in my acceptance speech.

I saw that one, nc.
You were fabulous.
