Anne Heche, the film, television, and Broadway actor, died last week at the age of 53. The media made a great deal of the tragic circumstances surrounding her death, and many were quick to point out her own culpability for the circumstances. Which is true, but hardly kind, and Anne Heche’s health struggles have been discussed for decades—the tabloids have never been shy about discussing her troubles, particularly during the late-1990s height of her film career. She came out as sexually fluid at a time when identifying as queer was seen as a potentially career-ending faux pas; her relationship with a woman exposed her to homophobia, and her subsequent relationships with men were seen through the lens of her mental health struggles in a media landscape that diminishes bisexuality and views neurodivergence as evidence of weakness.
Even if she slid off of the Hollywood A-list, she never stopped working, and her performances only got better and better. If movie audiences sometimes lost sight of her, theater and TV audiences never did. Here are a dozen of her very best performances.
