Well, out actress Cherry Jones Cherry Jones (born November 21, 1956) is a Tony Award-winning American actress. Biography Career Jones is known primarily for her stage work, including her Tony-winning lead performances in Lincoln Center's 1995 production of The Heiress , who played the role, tells The Buzz that Officer Paski was totally gay, and she says the same of her new role in Shyamalan's woodsy new 19th-century thriller, The Village. Jones plays Miss Clack, a pipe-smoking single woman who "has a certain innate strength" and is "gay as the day is long." At least Jones whipped up a backstory back·sto·ry n. 1. The experiences of a character or the circumstances of an event that occur before the action or narrative of a literary, cinematic, or dramatic work: to that effect: "Night knew what I was doing--they all did--and it was so sweet." Given Shyamalan's love of surprise twists, everything else about The Village--about a commune's truce with forest beasts--is shrouded shroud n. 1. A cloth used to wrap a body for burial; a winding sheet. 2. Something that conceals, protects, or screens: under a shroud of fog. 3. a. in secrecy. Next up for Jones: another cop, in Ocean's 12. "I seem to be moving into that period of my career," she says, "where I get to carry badges and live out every childhood fantasy I had as a young lesbian with my gun and holster." |
