Probably my mother's all-time favorite scene (as we always said she'd do the same):
Aurora Greenway: It's past ten. My daughter is in pain. I don't understand why she has to have this pain. All she has to do is hold out until ten, and IT'S PAST TEN! My daughter is in pain, can't you understand that! GIVE MY DAUGHTER THE SHOT!
Prashant, she was just on Broadway in a David Mamet play but it didn't do very well with critics or audiences. She has been in the odd thing over the years.

Whatever happened to Debra Winger?

Thanks, Jeff. I think I only ever saw her in TERMS OF ENDEARMENT and AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN. Didn't know she was into plays.
