Answer: Nurse

As "Forever Young" unfolded in 1939, Daniel was grief-stricken over the imminent death of his girlfriend, and volunteered to participate in a scientific experiment during which he was cryogenically frozen. He awoke 53 years later in 1992. Aside from being confounded by modern technology (and the fact he was aging at a frightening pace), Daniel still pined for his lost girlfriend Helen. He was befriended by Claire, an emergency room nurse, and her young son Nat (played by Elijah Wood). George Wendt (Norm Peterson of "Cheers" fame) had a supporting role as Harry Finley, Daniel's best friend (and the inventor of the cryogenic freezing process). "Forever Young" was directed by Steve Miner, who would later direct Jamie Lee again in "Halloween H20: 20 Years Later", her 1998 return to the slasher film genre.

From Quiz Jamie Lee Curtis - Hollywood's Free Spirit

Answer: A Fish Called Wanda

Released in 1988, "A Fish Called Wanda" was one of Jamie Lee's most popular and successful films. Set in London, Jamie portrayed Wanda Gershwitz, a jewel thief plotting to outwit the other members of her gang and take all of the stolen jewels for herself. Shakespearean-trained actor Kevin Kline played Otto West, Wanda's lover and partner in crime. Michael Palin rounded-out the gang as Ken Pile, a stuttering, bumbling hit man who could only manage to kill a little old lady's pet dogs, one by one. John Cleese portrayed Archie Leach, an English barrister defending another member of the gang (and the only one who knew where the stolen jewels were hidden). Wanda seduced Archie as part of her plot, leading to inevitable complications. Jamie Lee has described "A Fish Called Wanda" and her collaboration with John Cleese as, "... one of the greatest movie experiences I've ever been part of." Kevin Kline's performance as Otto earned him the 1989 Academy Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role. John Cleese and Michael Palin (both "Monty Python" alumni) won 1989 BAFTA Awards, for Best Actor and Best Actor in a Supporting Role, respectively. In addition to starring, Cleese was also the film's writer and executive producer.

9. During her long film career, Jamie Lee has portrayed a wide range of characters from all walks of life. In which film did she play a character named Elizabeth Solley?

From Quiz Jamie Lee Curtis - Hollywood's Free Spirit

Carpenter also created the character Laurie Strode, which Jamie Lee played in four films: "Halloween" (1978), "Halloween II" (1981), "Halloween H20: 20 Years Later" (1998), and "Halloween: Resurrection" (2002). As for the other three characters, Jamie Lee starred as Kit Foster in the 1999 sci-fi thriller "Virus", and as Louisa Pendel in the 2001 drama "The Tailor of Panama". She also played the supporting role of Elaine Bowen in the 2001 comedy "Daddy and Them". And just for the record, John Carpenter was not involved in any of those projects.
