Movie beauty Daryl Hannah has turned her back on her acting career to focus on saving the planet - despite her remarkable comeback in the hit Kill Bill movies.
The 44-year-old actress garnered critical acclaim for her part as villainous Elle Driver in director Quentin Tarantino's martial arts epics, helping her win a succession of high-profile film roles.
But Hannah is unimpressed by her dramatic career revival, and insists her latest film, Living Neon Dreams, will be her last until she has satisfied her need to protect the environment.
She explains: "Time has taught me to worry less about myself and be more compassionate about others' anxieties. I am more focused on trying to save the planet and other living creatures than on my career at the moment.
"I won't be doing anything for a while because I'm focused on environmental issues. I live in a solar-powered house built with eco-friendly materials and things salvaged from a 19th century barn.
"I also drive a 100% bio-diesel car. I try to follow this ideal through all aspects of my life."

*MIBabe03* 08-19-2005, 08:48 AM Eh, oh well. Props to her for the Kill Bill movies though.
barwars 08-19-2005, 11:23 AM Hippie.
crystals 08-19-2005, 04:14 PM I think it's cool that she's more concerned about the environment than her career. :)
It's very admirable that she's going to save the environment, but I thought she quit Hollywood years ago.
;)
*Pleasant Tomorrow* 08-19-2005, 05:17 PM Well, good for her. At least she's doing something.
Dean Winchester 08-19-2005, 05:45 PM I think Daryl realizes she's 44 years old, she's getting at an age where Hollywood wants nothing to do with you if you're a female, might as well bow out when you still have somewhat of a career than stick around another fifteen or twenty years and get no roles outside of Lifetime movies and roles as the mother. But to me, Daryl never seemed the type who'd do a good job in a maternal role, she tried it in A Walk To Remember and wasn't that good at it.
I still love Daryl tho, Clan Of The Cave Bear's one of my favorite movies.
TheGreatPretender 08-19-2005, 07:25 PM Good for her, if she wants to do something that has a good cause there is no reason to put her down for it. God, people.
Penny Lane 08-19-2005, 07:52 PM She was very good in Steel Magnolias. :D Her career kind of went downward since then. Too bad! :(
