Jennifer Connelly Early Career:

Connelly's entry into the world of entertainment began with modelling when she was just ten years old. Discovered by a friend of her father who worked in advertising, she was quickly signed by the Ford Modeling Agency. Her early modelling work included appearances in magazines and advertisements, which helped her gain early exposure. Connelly also appeared in several television commercials, showcasing her natural on-camera presence.

Her first significant acting opportunity came when she was cast in the 1984 film "Once Upon a Time in America," directed by Sergio Leone. In this epic crime drama, Connelly played the young Deborah Gelly, the love interest of the main character, portrayed by Robert De Niro. Though her role was relatively small, it marked her official entry into the film industry and provided her with valuable experience working alongside seasoned actors and under a renowned director.

In 1985, Connelly landed her first leading role in the Italian horror film "Phenomena," directed by Dario Argento. She played Jennifer Corvino, a young girl who has a psychic connection with insects and uses her abilities to solve a series of murders. The film's unique premise and Connelly's performance garnered attention, establishing her as a promising young actress capable of handling complex roles.

Connelly's breakout role came later that year with the fantasy film "Labyrinth," directed by Jim Henson and executive-produced by George Lucas. She starred opposite David Bowie as Sarah Williams, a teenage girl who must navigate a magical labyrinth to rescue her baby brother from the Goblin King. "Labyrinth" became a cult classic, and Connelly's portrayal of Sarah was praised for its depth and relatability, further solidifying her status as a rising star in Hollywood.

Throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s, Connelly continued to build her career with roles in a variety of films. In 1988, she starred in "Some Girls," a romantic comedy where she played Gabriella, a young woman whose family has eccentric tendencies. Her performance was well-received and demonstrated her ability to handle comedic roles.

In 1991, Connelly starred in the romantic adventure film "The Rocketeer," playing Jenny Blake, the love interest of the protagonist. The film, set in the 1930s, showcased her versatility and her ability to perform in action-packed, period-piece roles. Although the movie received mixed reviews, Connelly's performance was praised, and it added another significant credit to her filmography.

Another notable role during this period was in the 1996 film "Mulholland Falls," a noir crime drama where she played Allison Pond, a character involved in a web of intrigue and corruption. Her performance in the film demonstrated her growing maturity as an actress and her ability to tackle more serious and dramatic roles.
