I heard her tell the story on KABC radio in LA. Hosted by a guy who taught at film schools and directed movies. She was probably around 23. She said her father was attacking her when she was 15 and her mother arrived home and shot him.
I have also read that her mother covered for Charlize who actually shot him. But who knows. A gun surely saved her from rape and possibly murder at the hands of her father.
She is the most beautiful woman i have seen and that includes Hayak and kidman and Berry and a few others. Never expect common sense out of celebrities, but supposedly she has a high IQ. Why can’t she figure this out and love me as she always has.
The interview was on the Rod Lurie show. He was or is a critique and director. Had a weekly saturday show on movies.
