Taking the Backseat
Before she became the Marisa Tomei we know and love, she struggled a bit in the early part of the nineties. Burnt out, she took the backseat and auditioned for smaller parts. These minor roles included movies like Dirk and Betty, King of the Jungle, The Watcher, Happy Accidents and What Women Want. Tomei continued this pattern until the early years of the 2000s. Even taking a part in Sandler’s Anger Management!
