Why Jennifer?

In 1997 this website was created as a mark of respect and admiration for this remarkably talented actress. At that stage in her career Jennifer was still very much under-appreciated as a serious actress. She had been acting since her early teens but in the mid 1990s her career was undergoing a quiet phase. Her relatively small and very loyal fan base stemmed from her early performances in films such as “Labyrinth”, “Career Opportunities” and “The Rocketeer”. A significant amount of Jennifer’s popularity was unfortunately prompted purely by her physical beauty, and many web sites at the time were primarily aimed at catering for this.

The focus of this site is on providing a comprehensive archive of Jennifer’s career, particularly her earlier career in the 1980s and 90s. It is not intended as a repository of any and all photos, latest news and gossip. There are plenty of sites that cater for that and we remain committed to providing a site that emphasizes quality over quantity. We are not here to update the site every 24 hours or bury you in a mountain of Coppermine albums.
