Guinevere Turner is a actor|actress and writer. She was born in Boston, Massachusetts, USA on May 23, 1968. Amongst other recent films, she starred in the 1997 British BDSM/sexual fetish|Fetish comedy film Preaching to the Perverted as the New York City|New York dominatrix "Tanya Cheex". Guinevere Turner and I Shot Andy Warhol director Mary Harron wrote the screenplay which ended up being selected for the film version of Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho. She appears in it in a brief cameo, where she has the in-joke line "What makes you even think I'm a lesbian?" An early film Gwen starred in, for which she also helped produce with her then-girlfriend, Rose Troche, was called Go Fish. In it she plays a young woman whose friends help her in the (lesbian) dating scene. Director Kevin Smith was a fan of the movie, particularly a scene in it wherein, in an imagined sequence, some of a character's friends chastise her for "selling out" and sleeping with a guy, and used it as an inspiration for his rather unique take on a similar theme in his own film Chasing Amy. Gwen appeared in Kevin's Dogma, in a small role as a bus clerk. Guinevere Turner is a lesbian. ==See also== * The L Word ==External links== * http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0877587/ IMdb entry * http://www.guinturner.com/ Guinevere Turner Fansite
