In addition to starring in Disney-attraction short film “Captain EO” with Michael Jackson for director Francis Coppola (1986) and her father’s final film, “The Dead” (1987), she was in Woody Allen’s Oscar-nommed “Crimes and Misdemeanors” (1989), was Oscar nominated as best supporting actress for “Enemies: A Love Story” (1989) for Paul Mazursky and was Oscar-nominated for her lead performance in Stephen Frears’ “The Grifters” (1990).
The distinguished roles that followed brought Huston more acclaim as well as the opportunity to work with many of the most important film directors of the late 20th century.
