With her expressive blue eyes, soft, Southern-tinged voice and an acting range that can carry her from hysterically funny to terrifying in seconds, Patricia Arquette is one of the most underrated, talented actresses of her generation.

A year later she gained attention for her starring role in _Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, A (1987)_ , considered by many to be the best film of the Nightmare series.

She won a CableACE award in 1991 for her portrayal of a deaf epileptic in Wildflower (1991) (TV).
