Virginia Madsen spent the first twenty years of her acting career playing minor roles in films. Her break-though role came in her critically acclaimed leading role in 2004’s Sideways, which catapulted the 46-year-old actress to the Hollywood A-list.

Before Virginia became a household name, critics were already well-aware of her acting prowess. In the 1997 Matt Damon legal drama The Rainmaker, Virginia played ‘a witness for the plaintiff.’ Critics called her performance ‘strong’ and ‘solid.’
