Brigitte Nielsen: Career
Brigitte Nielsen is a Danish actress who became very popular in 1980s B-movies, most notably as the titular character in Red Sonja, due to her stature (she stands at 6'1", or 1.85 metres, tall) and sultry looks.
Because of these attributes, she was termed an "amazon" by the world press. Nielsen reached the height of her fame in 1987, when she played the assassin Karla Fry in Beverly Hills Cop II.
she wasn't bad as the comic-book sword 'n' sorcery heroine Red Sonya in the 1985 film of the same name. And she certainly filled the costumes (what there were of them) in Domino (89) and Chained Heat 2 (93). To fully assess the thespic skills of Brigitte Nielsen, one must witness her starkly realistic performance as a curvaceous NASA detective in the lunar looney tune Murder by Moonlight (93).
