Janet is a transvestite who is entangled by Dr. Frank n Furter (1975). Sarandon fought for Annie in Bull Durham (1988) more than 15 years following her first appearance in the film. She flew at her own expense from Rome from Italy, from Italy to Los Angeles. She stated "It was an incredible script... it eliminated a myriad of stereotypes and challenged the American definition of what success is". "When I arrived, I spent some time with Kevin Costner, kissed some ladies at the studio, then went back to my plane".
