Andie has established herself as an accomplished actress in a career that shows no signs of slowing down. Her undeniable charm and talent has resulted in worldwide recognition.
She could be heard as the voice of “Etta the Hen” in the animated summer hit Barnyard, and before that she starred in Beauty Shop with Queen Latifah and the telepic Riding the Bus with My Sister, directed by Anjelica Huston.
Andie earned praise for her performance in the Emmy-nominated HBO original film, Dinner with Friends. Daily Variety called her portrayal “arguable MacDowell’s best work yet” and USA Today says the film was “blessed by an on-the-mark performance by MacDowell.”
Her other dramatic performances include End of Violence, directed by Wim Wenders, which was selected to screen at the opening of the 50th Anniversary of the Cannes Film Festival in 1998. In addition, she appeared in The Player and Short Cuts, both directed by Robert Altman; Unstrung Heroes, directed by Diane Keaton; the ever popular St. Elmo's Fire; the dark comedy ‘Intervention’ and ‘Daydream Nation’. Andie has now finished filming the ‘Footloose’ remake which is being released in April 2011 and the ‘Monte Carlo’, which is due for release in May 2011.
Andie earned the title of #1 female box-office draw worldwide with her performances in the smash hit romantic comedy ‘Four Weddings and a Funeral’ and the western ‘Bad Girls’ with Drew Barrymore. She also starred in the holiday classic ‘Groundhog Day’ with Bill Murray.
She first received critical acclaim and accolades for her performance as a repressed young wife in Steven Soderbergh's sex, lies and videotape. The film won the Palme d'or at Cannes and garnered Andie the Los Angeles Film Critics Award for Best Actress as well as a Golden Globe nomination. Additionally, she was presented with the coveted Cesar D'Honneur for her body of work and the Golden Kamera Award from Germany's Horzu Publications.
