Her later career includes character roles in Miss Congeniality (2000) and Sweet Home Alabama (2002). She starred in several major films throughout the mid-1960s to early 1980s such as The Sand Pebbles Carnal Knowledge The Wind and the Lion and Gandhi and received an Academy Award nomination for her role in the 1979 film Starting Over. Her first film was The Group (1965) which was based on Mary McCarthy's novel of the same name.
