A very underrated actress. Watch three of her films back to back and you'll likely see three very different characters. She was damn good in this film too.
I loved In the Cut ~ it was great to see Meg stretch herself as an actress like that. It's also one of the few Jane Campion movies I like, but that's another discussion.
Sad that the movie "In The Cut" is considered as Ryan's career downfall. I really enjoyed the movie. It had an erotic atmosphere with beautiful cinematography. Flawless performances from Meg Ryan, Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Kevin Bacon.
There's an obvious hypocrisy between what fans accept from male movie stars and female ones. There were always roles for "cute girls" but when the looks start to go, those roles dry up. The actress can either expand (if they are good enough thespians) into supporting roles or jump to the "mommy track" and make much fewer films. We see far less of many of her contemporaries too such as Nicole Kidman and Michelle Pfeiffer. It's just the way Hollywood works and most actresses claim they are glad to be free of the Hollywood meat grinder. Just enjoy your millions, Meg, and be happy you got out when you did.
My recollection is that the scandal of the messy divorce between her and Dennis Quaid tainted with the rumors about Russell Crowe did more damage to her than did a movie role. None of this hurt the reputation of the men, but Ryan suffered a lot of condemnation at the time, as I recall. I also don't believe Ryan's career has ended...she has changed course, as all aging actresses have to because society is very unkind to older women and very accepting of aging men. I think the title of this video is misleading.
Pretty sure it was the affair with Russell Crowe and the failure of Proof of Life that did more damage than In the Cut. Then there was the follow up Against the Ropes, The Women, and In the Land of Women that sealed her fate. I still love her tho. I hope she makes a comeback.
I thought In The Cut was a very good movie. It was filmed beautifully, the horror scenes were properly horrific, and her acting in the film was great. Maybe it wasn’t the film ruining her stardom and just her taking a step back from silly celebrity. It’s one thing to be good at what you do and to be famous. Two different things entirely.
This movie was started pre-9/11 (Jane Campion was scouting locations at NYU, my school, in 1996) and (like FLESH AND BONE) was supposed to get Ryan past romcoms. But when it came out in 2003, the country wanted to forget anything with a pre-9/11 edge. I always thought this was the right role at the wrong time.
She should not have Been judged so harshly. I loved all her movies. She was a great actress. It's a shame people can be so harsh. She definitely didn't deserve this. ❤
All I can say is that I loved her in everything thing that she was in; she was excellent, believable and made me want more; never to end! That is a pretty great compliment!🥰🥰🥰
I think the affair with Crowe hurt her image way more than a movie that barely anyone saw. I don't remember that movie at all but I do remember all the hype in the media about the Russell Crowe relationship.
Never heard of The Cut. I always though her downfall came with Bonfire of the Vanities. Hollywood is so brutal. Glad I never had the talent or looks to be drawn there.
In my opinion, I think a lot of the outrage that came from the release of that movie was ginned up by the media. For the most part she was always recognized as a cute sweeter than sweet actress and to a degree was typecast as that. However, the Hollywood community is extremely toxic by nature and they will turn on anybody at any given moment if they feel there is something to gain from it. I saw the movie and while it was definitely a dynamic departure from her cotton candy rolls I think she portrayed her character well. The fact that the movie was not particularly well written is really not her fault. Strictly speaking, I think she really got burned out on Hollywood nonsense and decided to park company of her own volition. Frankly, the idea of that movie ending her career as the subject of this video is kind of weak in its premise. In fact, I think if she wanted to act again she could go back and get good rolls anytime she wants. Simply put, I don't think Hollywood dumped her so much as she dumped hollywood. LOL
I hope Meg is happy very very happy because the public is a fickled beast. She's always been a very attractive lady, but most especially female actors Stars whatever deserve be treated a lot better than what they usually are! I have special insight to these things because I worked in the entertainment industry myself behind and in front of the camera having been retired now since 2004!
This is so sad. Meg was a super star. She was the queen of the romantic comedy. And for GOOD REASON. Meg wasnt just cute and lovely. She was / is also a great and versatile actress. People including the critics just pigeonholed Meg like no other actor / actress in history. Every legendary actor / actress deserves to branch out and show audiences everything they're capable of. I think Meg was screwed out of an Oscar nomination.
Meg Ryan, is and was a versatile and talented actor. She did not deserve the reaction or treatment she got. Hollywood and audiences can be fickle with actors who don’t do what is expected of them. She did nothing others haven’t done before her or after her and they suffered no I’ll will for it.
I see a role not a actor or actrss.but some actors I like some like Mel Gibson I boycott . He can play good or bad people do it well but his off screen is anti jewish so I avoid him totally .
I think The Cut, it these producers who shoot the movies with crap episodes, making stars appear bad but I loved her acting in the Cut, it's the Producers that are missing out...PR by these Movie Production Companies...and her X Dennis was disgusting
I think this attitude that people have that they own an actor and the image is totally absurd. I'm not sure why any actor or actress needs to appear nude on the screen. I find all that nudity to be a demeaning/controlling aspect of movie making. That being said I could care less about an actor's personal life unless they kill someone. I don't idolize actors. I admire them for their work and the image that they are able to put on the screen or stage or radio. I don't confuse what an actor does for a job and their personal qualities. Some may be the same, most are greatly different. The whole idea of acting is to act and convince viewers/listeners that the representation is real. If they can't do that they aren't acting. But the audience is super stupid if they believe that the act is the person. I like to see a good performance even if I hate the script. I think Meg Ryan is a good actress whose audience confused her with a fictional Pollyanna. I'd love to see her in in-depth roles. Maybe as she ages we will get to see her take on more in-depth characters. Or maybe she has had enough--totally understandable. At any rate, I have enjoyed her performances.
What hypocrisy audiences have! Like the famous proverb states, "Let the one who is without sin cast the 1st stone!" Everyone is guilty of something! We all have our secrets that never see the light! Give her a break!
This channel is pretty much bullsh$t. Meg certainly did carry on after this movie. In 1989, she got her first lead role in the romantic comedy film 'When Harry Met Sally...', which was followed by her portrayal of Annie Reed in 'Sleepless in Seattle' and Kathleen Kelly in 'You've Got Mail'. Some of her best roles, they earned her 'Golden Globe' nominations and established her as one of the most successful actresses in romantic comedy films. The list of her other such movies includes 'When a Man Loves a Woman' (1994), 'French Kiss' (1995), 'Addicted to Love' (1997), 'City of Angels' (1998), and 'Kate & Leopold' (2001). Her filmography also includes the biographical film 'The Doors' (1991), the war-film 'Courage Under Fire' (1996), the action-thriller 'Proof of Life' (2000), and the comedy-drama 'The Women' (2008). In 2016, she produced, directed and starred in the drama film 'Ithaca'.
I've also been a big fan of Meg Ryan. Some of her other great movies were DOA, Innerspace and Flesh and Bone, all 3 of these also starred Dennis Quaid. One of my personal favorites, Joe vs The Volcano, also Hanging up and IQ. Meg is a terrific actress, one of the best in the business in my opinion.
Actors should be seen as a common person in their private life and public opinions made on their actions and public beliefs . On screen they are just a character. Every great actor/actress have played a bad part. Forget it and let them work. Their next movie maybe be a blockbuster. I think she was great in courage under fire.
No matter what somebody does you don’t treat them like that it’s wrong and don’t spread rumors that you don’t know nothing about about her having an affair wrong
So Meg Ryan’s career gets ruined and Mark Ruffalo’s get boosted? Dennis cheats on Meg but she gets completely slandered for having a relationship with Crowe? What a load of bull
ITS GOOD SHE LET IT ALONE, BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE SO QUICK TO JUDGE SOMEONE AND DONT EVEN KNOW THEM, HOW ABOUT WE FIND WHAT KIND OF SKELETONS THE PEOPLE HAVE INBTHWIR BACK, OH NO! THAT WOULD BE MESSING WITH THWIR PRIVACY, LOL, BUT IM GLAD SHE LEFT IT ALONE, SO SHE CAN LUVE THE NORMAL FREE LUFE SHE WANTED IN THE FIRST PLACE.
I'll never understand why there is any stygma for performing nude scenes or sex scenes in a movie that is coined as "an erotic thriller". Actors and actresses aren't suppose to be pinned down to a public image. The main reason you act, is to perform in a way you've never performed before, in hopes that something great comes from it. I can think of a handful of movies that didn't turn out great, but I'd still give the people in them credit for trying to do something that breaks the mold. One of the worse reviewed movies is "Showgirls", but if there is one thing I'd credit Elizabeth Berkley for in her graphic nudity as a stripper in the movie, is that she committed to the part. There is nothing worse than a movie where someone is not convincingly what they are portraying, like Jennifer Lopez in Hustlers. She's the SUPPOSE to be the hot stripper that shows a newbie the ropes..but then never strips beyond underwear.. Whats the point. If Jennifer wasn't willing to strip totally naked, fine, but they should have found another actress for that role that would have. I mean you had another singer in that movie that WAS IN FACT an actual stripper. So why didn't they just have Cardi B show her the ropes. She at least does a topless scene with pasties.
This was going to turn Ryan’s career toward better juicier roles. Like all things just before 9/11, the movie was made in one world and released in another. Jane Campion was crafting it in the late 90s, when edgy was good. It ended up being released in 2003, when the US needed to feel safe, grounded, in the wake of the attacks. It should have been Ryan’s next FLESH AND BONE, but it wasn’t a safe movie, so it bombed. It’s a beautiful eerie film, though, and Ryan and Ruffalo had great screen chemistry…
Didn't see "In the Cut," therefore, can't comment on that...however, Meg Ryan was a good actress. "When Harry Met Sally," is a favorite of mine...all couples can relate to this film in some way or another, so realistic...
I never watched her in the Russel Crow or the "in the Cut" movies - still enjoy rewatching the DVDs I bought from the 90s - If she made enough money to now live and enjoy her freedom - good on her.
Quaid was a self-confessed drug addict who repeatedly cheated on her. She didn't defend herself - presumably to spare her children. Best Hollywood actress since Marilyn Monroe - and considerably more versatile!
Russell Crowe was not "ruined" with his involvement with Meg Ryan. He got to be nominated with an Oscar again. Then continue his film career with ease. It was Meg who got the unfair brunt of that scandal years ago. With her career started to free fall.
I feel she was a victim of the time … although it wasn’t that long ago… the female experience in entertainment was quite different then… I think it was the then male dominated industry had and has a habit of treating actresses no matter their popularity very disposable way.
I hate to say this, but it might be because she doesn't look like Meg Ryan any longer. She's still a great actress but as it happened with Jennifer Gray, too much of a physical change in your appearance can destroy your fan base. I still love both young ladies, but they did make some poor choices in hoping the knife would improve their looks. They were both knock-outs as they were.
Megs career died because of in the cut movie - I am no Hollywood expert, but I did notice it got quiet as “Ms Romantix Comedy” did the naked I like Meg - not mocking. I still wonder if any more films with Tom Hanks are in her future maybe he has fo save her He kinda got quiet too after Castaway
Let's face it she got over 40 there's only so many rolls for women over 40 she was easily thrown away when all she usually played was the perky ingenue you can only do that for so long and then it's over with

I really feel sorry for meg having to go through that during the early 2000,s
She didn't deserve that
Couldn't agree more. Great actress.
Love her still! If u don’t like the movie, don’t watch it!! She’s a gem! Miss her movies.
Agree ‼️👵🏻👩🌾❣️
A very underrated actress. Watch three of her films back to back and you'll likely see three very different characters. She was damn good in this film too.

Supposedly Nicole was meant to star in the film before Meg and that’s why she still has a producing credit
I thought it was because of the plastic surgery that altered her looks that ended her career.
My recollection is that the scandal of the messy divorce between her and Dennis Quaid tainted with the rumors about Russell Crowe did more damage to her than did a movie role. None of this hurt the reputation of the men, but Ryan suffered a lot of condemnation at the time, as I recall.

I'm glad that meg is happy in her life now 🤗😊
Meg Ryan is lovely. She is a great actress. FANS STILL LOVE HER. ❤️
The public treatment of her seems unfair to me, especially considering Ruffalo's career was enhanced by the same movie.
Ruffalo had the luxury of still being unknown at the time. It wasn’t until the following year when he did 13 going on 30 that he was put on the map
Pretty sure it was the affair with Russell Crowe and the failure of Proof of Life that did more damage than In the Cut. Then there was the follow up Against the Ropes, The Women, and In the Land of Women that sealed her fate. I still love her tho. I hope she makes a comeback.
Meg Ryan was a great actress.
Who here without sin , cast the first stone! I ❤ love Meg, She’s still the Best Ever! Hugs to you Meg.
Wish she would never have had plastic surgery.

Super great actress Meg Ryan, all the best..🥰😘
Meg Ryan is her own “WOMAN” how, what, when, where, why, and how she lives her life is her business! Go for it Meg!
I thought plastic surgery ended her career? From cute to weird
She got older and wasn't getting good movie roles. From Ms. Harper.
She is a great actress
She should not have Been judged so harshly. I loved all her movies. She was a great actress.
It's a shame people can be so harsh. She definitely didn't deserve this. ❤
All I can say is that I loved her in everything thing that she was in; she was excellent, believable and made me want more; never to end! That is a pretty great compliment!🥰🥰🥰
In French Kiss... OMG. She is so cute and fun... for being insanely neurotic and dressing like "a little boy."
I think the affair with Crowe hurt her image way more than a movie that barely anyone saw. I don't remember that movie at all but I do remember all the hype in the media about the Russell Crowe relationship.
And everyone absolutely love Dennis Quaid. Hollywood is so fickle to it's female stars.

She simply got old and hit the wall. It happens to almost all actresses. They are only valuable when they are young and very attractive.
I hope Meg is happy very very happy because the public is a fickled beast.

I think The Cut, it these producers who shoot the movies with crap episodes, making stars appear bad but I loved her acting in the Cut, it's the Producers that are missing out...PR by these Movie Production Companies...and her X Dennis was disgusting
She is so much better off without Hollywood and ignorant, fickle fans.
No one in the “public” judged this lady. She is much loved so far as I can tell. This is media noise at best.
It was the best role I ever saw her in. Society sure is screwed up.

They deserve to be. It's their money being spent on entertainment.
I had a huge crush on Meg Ryan while growing up....oh wait, I STILL have a huge crush on Meg Ryan!!!! Very beautiful person
Mark goes on to the hulk and meg can't get arrested they were both in the cut
So Meg Ryan’s career gets ruined and Mark Ruffalo’s get boosted? Dennis cheats on Meg but she gets completely slandered for having a relationship with Crowe? What a load of bull
He's several years younger...
Meg had a great career the wall is undefeated
She was my fantasy girl. So damn cute. Then had the plastic surgery and to me just ruined it for me .
I really dislike the botox-lips thing. I thought she should have known better than to go for that.

I've always liked Meg Ryan and still do.
We're happy to know that you love Meg! Which role of her appealed to you the most?
''people felt violated' people are weird
I loved Meg from back as a soap opera star. I viewed her movies to be secondary
Meg Ryan played betsy Stewart on as the world turns. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
I think it was really the Russell Crowe thing. Dennis got a lot of sympathy then and she and Crowe were just about ruined after it came out.
Thanks for watching!
Dennis cheated on her before she even got with Russell Crowe.
Quaid was a self-confessed drug addict who repeatedly cheated on her. She didn't defend herself - presumably to spare her children. Best Hollywood actress since Marilyn Monroe - and considerably more versatile!
Russell Crowe was not "ruined" with his involvement with Meg Ryan. He got to be nominated with an Oscar again. Then continue his film career with ease. It was Meg who got the unfair brunt of that scandal years ago. With her career started to free fall.

Actresses are only valuable when they are young and hot. Don't feel sorry for Meg as she replaced other older actresses when she was young.
She looks like emma watson
She was very popular and very attractive girl she should stay as an actress
She is no longer very attractive and that is why she is no longer acting.
I hate to say this, but it might be because she doesn't look like Meg Ryan any longer. She's still a great actress but as it happened with Jennifer Gray, too much of a physical change in your appearance can destroy your fan base. I still love both young ladies, but they did make some poor choices in hoping the knife would improve their looks. They were both knock-outs as they were.
OH, MEG WE HARDLY KNEW YE !!!!!!!
Megs career died because of in the cut movie - I am no Hollywood expert, but I did notice it got quiet as “Ms Romantix Comedy” did the naked
I like Meg - not mocking. I still wonder if any more films with Tom Hanks are in her future maybe he has fo save her
He kinda got quiet too after Castaway
“Meat to chew on”… 😂
Perhaps if the plastic surgery was not so drastic, she would still be as bankable.
Let's face it she got over 40 there's only so many rolls for women over 40 she was easily thrown away when all she usually played was the perky ingenue you can only do that for so long and then it's over with
Meg was great funny she did not deserve that kind of crap from anyone
Of course you don't mention one of her great movies City of angels with Nicholas cage And Meg Ryan
It was a sad movie with great performances by meg Ryan and Nicolas Cage. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
"Great movies" and "Nicholas Cage" do not belong in the same sentence.
she lost me in an interview with Michael Parkinson
"You'll Never Work in This Town Again" !
Even the all time great actors can have a bust. She was great in the prisido (sp?) Playing Sean Connory 's daughter.
Love her anyway!
Yep, she took the low road.
Plastic surgery ruined her career
It can't be the reason,
IDK about anyone else, but she lost me as a fan when she started spending more time on plastic surgery than on screen.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO glad the film career went away NEVER liked her!!!!!!!!
sooooo glad you never had a worthwhile career of any kind!
The public is a heartless mass. She seems like a sensitive person, so she is probably happier now.
There's still donkey shows. =)
Hard faced be eye ch. When someone can not relate to ordinary people they do not do well. Parkinson showed her as the awkward person she was.
