I would have given her a 0.0 rating, but she deserves credit for having pretented to be a lesbian for so long. She certainly had Ellen fooled.
Her biography says people fretted that her career would be destroyed by her "coming out," but she seems to have worked the notoriety of being gay into a platform for better roles. This she did at the expense of Ellen's feelings and the gay community, which certainly didn't need her using homosexuality for publicity.
But justice would prevail as her career has faltered since she dumped Ellen and claimed she was now straight again after being magically healed of a serious mental breakdown.
As for her acting, it really leaves a lot to be desired. The best on screen role I saw her in, John Q, was because she basically played herself, a nasty, calculating jerk.
No one should be allowed to thrive at the expense of someone else's feeling or by trying to jump on the bandwagon of a group of people suffering from discrimination. Notice she jumped off that bandwagon in 2000, as the country was taking a decidedly conservative turn.

Ms. Banfield dared to go to the areas of the world most impacted by America's response to the attacks on 9/11 and other parts of the world impacted by terrorism. She interviewed the victims of the Taliban and the subsequent war, terrorism in Israel/Gaza Strip/Palestine, and even the terrorists themselves. She risked her life to bring you the unvarished truth and expected you to learn and draw your own conclusions. For her troubles, she was called a whore by Michael Savage (he was rewarded with a show on MSNBC, for whom Ashleigh worked), demoted to a stint on the Today show, and eventually forced to leave in NBC in order to continue her career as a serious journalist. But she kept her dignity intact and is now beginning a new career as a reporter on Court TV. She did a fantastic job of getting to the heart of the tough issues we faced after 9/11 and did so in language the average person could understand without making us feel talked down to. Brilliant.

Ms. Sosnovska had more chemistry with her equally amazing co-star (Eden Reigel) than most any other actor had on All My Children. Her acting was superb, and at times subtle. In one scene she expressed the most heart-renching sorrow with a single tear. Amazing. Unfortunately, All My Children chose not to follow the beautiful love story to its logical conclusion, and Olga left to pursue other roles. She felt that if the writers weren't going to stay true to this important storyline, it wasn't worth her time. Beautiful, talented, and principled. An amazing human being.
She next took a role on a British spy show called Spooks in the UK (MI-5 in the US). She plays Fiona, a member of the MI-5, Britian's equivalent of the CIA. Here she could really show her talents. She was tough, sexy, and caring. Despite being very thin, she was very believable as a tough secret agent. Her ability to play a variety of roles and display the full range of human emotions is unparalleled.

SiobhanInPhilly must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could SiobhanInPhilly possibly have for not rating a single film?
