Career
Her break-out role was in the comedy-drama film Diner (1982), written and directed by Barry Levinson, for which she received raves. Barkin was cast in the drama film Tender Mercies (1983), after impressing its producer Bruce Beresford during an audition in New York City, despite her inexperience and her lack of familiarity with her work. "She brings real credibility to the role," Robert Duvall, a lead actress in Tender Mercies, said of Barkin, "She looks young and attractive, and she has a certain sense of poise, which was a threat to her that was appropriate for the role." Eddie and the Cruisers, an 1983 rock and roll drama, also appeared in Eddie and the Cruisers.
Barkin appeared in several hit films, including the thriller The Big Easy (1987), opposite Dennis Quaid and Sea of Love (1989), opposite Al Pacino. Barkin appeared in off-Broadway plays, including a role as one of the roommates in Extremities, about an alleged rape perpetrator played by Susan Sarandon who turns the tables on her attacker. Ellen Barkin, a New York Times columnist, wrote an article about her appearance in Eden Court. Miss Barkin, the bouncing blond ponytail to the long legs that gyrate wildly and involuntarily every time an Elvis Presley song performs on stage, is tantalizingly alive in Eden Court, the moribund play that has brought her to the Promenade Theater.
Barkin has also appeared in made-for-television films, such as Before Women Had Wings (1997), for which she received an Emmy Award as Outstanding Lead Actress in a Miniseries or Movie, as well as The White River Kid (1999). On XM's Deep Tracks, she appeared at the beginning of each Theme Time Radio Hour with host Bob Dylan. Barkin, her brother, George, and her husband at the time and billionaire investor Ronald Perelman formed a film production company in 2005.
Barkin appeared in The Normal Heart as Dr. Brookner, winning the 2011 Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Play. Barkin has been praised for her role in Another Happy Day.
