She earned £25million for appearances in Gothika, X-Men 2 and Catwoman. If she had any sense of decency, she'd give back some of that money.

There must be some emotional investment in keeping up the notion that there are roles for black women and roles for white women and roles for latino women.
Silly me. I was under the illusion that in 2005 there were roles for women and roles for men.
I stand corrected.

Miss Berry said there was such a shortage of decent roles on offer that she had resorted to buying the rights of books she wanted to develop into films. Such an original idea! Someone should buy the rights to "Gone With The Wind" and make a movie. Then they could film "Ordinary People", "Little Women", "Tom Sawyer", "The Firm", "Hunt For Red October" . . . . .
What a dunderhead.

The beautiful Ms. Berry should be more selective in choosing her roles. "Catwoman" was not a wise choice, as it will go down as the bomb of the year.
To: KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle
She recently divorced Eric Benet after he admitted cheating on her with a dozen other women.Married to one of the most beautiful women in the world, and he cheats on her. I guess her discernment about men is about as good as her discernment about film scripts.

"Miss Berry said there was such a shortage of decent roles on offer that she had resorted to buying the rights of books she wanted to develop into films."
This happens all the time. MANY actors/actresses are involved in getting material for themselves--why is this considered something she had to "resort" to? It's like saying she's "resorted" to reading scripts that she eventually declined to film.
BTW, I'm amused at some of the responses here. We've been saying all along that Hollywood is hypocritical in its liberal pose, backing liberal politicians like Boxer who attack black women. I don't get the reactions to someone who supports our view of Hollywood as one big garbage factory.

Wait, didn't she win an Academy award? That role wasn't a good one? "Logic," what's that?

Hey Halle. These are YOUR libs who have a history of helping blacks. Oh, they really haven't done much, have they? What group (ok, party) has reached out and actually DONE things for and with blacks? Hows about the Republican conservatives. Compare Condi Rice to "Sheets" Byrd. Colin Powell to "Babs" Boxer. Racists, the whole bunch.
