As the daughter of one of cinema's most intense actors, Nastassja Kinski emerged in her own right as an actress who was praised for a number of acclaimed performances. After receiving her start in German movies, Kinski attained international stardom as the titular heroine in mentor Roman Polanski's Oscar-nominated "Tess" (1979). She later starred in Paul Schrader's erotic horror thriller, "Cat People" (1982). Kinski gave one of her most affecting performances as an estranged wife in the arthouse hit, "Paris, Texas" (1984).
