Then Simson introduced his which Rodwell "preferred." West would have done best to lead his trump, but he decided to play a forcing defense, leading the king and another diamond. Simson ruffed in hand, finessed dummy's club queen successfully, played a spade to his ace, ruffed a spade in the dummy, and ruffed a diamond in hand. Another spade ruff, the club ace and a club ruff in hand (it couldn't help East to ruff in) brought declarer's trick total to eight. Since Simson was still clutching the A-K of hearts, lie claimed his contract.

I I know a lot of actors say that but with I me, the work speaks for itself." Russell's latest film, the succinctly titled "Whore," backs up that asser-Ition. From its opening sequence, I when Russell's character stands out- side a highway tunnel and turns down a man who requests anal sex, the movie turns every Hollywood cliche about prostitutes upside down. Russell's Liz, a working-class woman who skids into prostitution after a bad marriage, is no "Pretty Woman." Her gritty, humiliating and toften dangerous life as a hooker Jftears liule resemblance to Hollywood's traditional take on prostitution.

Russell's exotic, regal looks and during marriage to acclaimed British director Nicolas Roeg belie her roots as a self-described Valley Girl until she opens her mouth. used to call L.A. going over pthe 1 didn't have dinner over 3he hill till I was Turns out she's as blunt and tough-talking as -U- Southern Hills 8: Frankie Commando Johnny 1:40,4:30,7:15,9:55.

But Russell grimaces when talking about her family, and makes it clear that she doesn't feel she got a raw deal. She remains close to her family and says they're proud of her accomplishments, "1 hate it when actors talk about what a hard time they had as kids," she says.

"That was just my life. It wasn't horrible. When you're free, white and over 21, how hard can it be? Get over it!" After leaving home, Russell studied acting at the Lee Strasberg Institute in Los Angeles. At 18, she landed her first big movie role in "The Last Tycoon," playing opposite her childhood hero, Robert Mitchum, and several other big names. Others, she says, were surprised when she didn't appear to be intimidated by working with major movie stars at such a young age with no experience.

"I have this facility for shutting all that fear out," says Russell. street level, prostitutes are treated like garbage. Imagine waking up in the morning and thinking, this is what 1 'm going to go do today. For the past 12 years, Russell has not had to wake up and worry about such hard choices. She was barely 22 when she met Roeg.

Since then, the couple have built a seemingly enviable life involving both artistic collaboration and two young sons. The Rocgs live in London and Los Angeles. But there was nothing in her background that prepared Russell for life with an iconoclastic British filmmaker. Her mother was only 18 when Russell was born and then had four more children. Russell's father left when she was 6 and she never liked her stepfather.

She dropped out of school at 16 and left home for an apartment over "the hill." "I was fed up," says Russell of life in high school and as the oldest sibling in a family where her mother often survived on food stamps. "I flllG WUllldll fJia3 111 TV IIU1V. "Whore" is sometimes uncomfortable to watch. Russell almost 3rned the role down. "I read it and I said I didn't want -ID do it." says Russell, 34, whose past films have included "Black 'Widow" with Dcbra Winger, "Im-jpulse," "Physical Evidence," "Bad Timing" and "The Razor's Edge." Zc "I thought I'd done too many ITdangerous films.

I wanted something Jeasy. I thought, 'why do I have to put butt on the line all the "Whore," which was written and directed by maverick filmmaker Ken ERusscll (no relation), shows the flip jside of Hollywood hookers. It's a stunning slap in the face to a generation who remember Jane Fonda's glamorous call girl in "Klute," Julie "Christie's winsome madame in and Mrs. Miller," Shelley Long's ditzy streetwalker in "Night JShift" or any of the many prostitutes portrayed on screen over the years. Russell decided to do the film after repeated reassurances from director "Russell that her scenes would not be Texcessively explicit.

Russell says playing the part of Liz, who is beaten and gang-raped during the course of the fUm, had an Himpact on her. She based some of her Txharacter on prostitutes she met while researching her role as a policewoman in "Impulse." "What shocked me most was the degradation," Russell says.
