Halle Berry's career was in freefall until she took off her top in "Swordfish". The industry had been trying to get her to do nude scenes for years, but she wouldn't. Then she does two, one with a pretty heated sex scene, and wow, she gets an oscar. Surprise, surprise.

Was Swordfish before or after X-Men, I can't remember..

"Then she does two, one with a pretty heated sex scene, and wow, she gets an oscar. Surprise, surprise."

Actually, she was incredible in this movie. I'm not a huge fan of hers (especially after her acceptance speech), but in my opinion she deserved the award.

Thanks for the ping, oph.
