Cathy Moriarty Sexy

Remember when Martin Scorsese’s Raging Bull (1980) was released and all the press was about Robert De Niro’s weight gain? Well, the real scoop was the director discovered Cathy Moriarty since he hired the blonde amateur to play prizefighter Jake LaMotta’s wife. The part made Cathy a star and got her an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress. The voluptuous ingenue then lit up the screen as a suburban seductress in the black comedy Neighbors (1981). Sexy roles in the comedies Kindergarten Cop (1990) and Soapdish (1990) followed, as did a chance to strut her stuff with Antonio Banderas in The Mambo Kings (1992). Set in the 1950s, the French-American musical has Cathy getting mam-handled by Armand Assante during a playful sex scene. Sadly, her ample breasts are fondled through lingerie. Sadder still, it’s as close as the bombshell came to getting naked on camera. Darn. Still, fans can appreciate her titillating turns in the comic sequels Another Stakeout (1993) and Analyze That (2002) as well as the Casper movies. In between, Cathy could be seen on the CBS sitcom Bless This House (1995) and heard on the animated series Stories from My Childhood (1998). Since then, the hardworking hottie scored recurring roles on NBC’s Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (2013-2014) and FX’s The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story (2018). But not before she won a CableACE Award for Best Actress in a Dramatic Series for Tales from the Crypt (1993). Or is it Tail from the Cath?
