Born on May 9, 1979 in New York, New York, USA. Reportedly 5' 7".

It might be time for Rosario Dawson to get a new agent.

After an auspicious beginning with 1995’s controversial Kids, Rosario at the time of this writing has more bombs under her belt than an Arab on his way to a synagogue, and is only known (if she's known at all) as the one chick in the Josie and the Pussycats trio that nobody knows. The trouble is that, while she's a fine enough actress, her most obvious (and therefore primary) asset is her ample chest, something audiences have seen too little of since He Got Game to maintain much interest in her. She doesn't necessarily need to be topless right now — an actress with aspirations of being taken seriously probably shouldn't do more than a few nude scenes until after she's established herself for her non-anatomy-related talents — but some generous cleavage now and then would certainly help her on her way. (Actually, another nude scene would go a long way for Rosario, as it's been a long time since the last one.) After all, most American audiences like their screen eye-candy petite, white, and blonde; Rosario's big-boned, black-Puerto Rican-Irish-Cuban-American Indian features and dark hair may not be much of a box office draw for them. But big boobs and cleavage are, and if Rosario hopes to land roles in bigger and better films, she'd do well to remember that.

Sin City

It’s Don Quixote meets Pulp Fiction: Three (or so) interweaving and ultra-violent tales of a directionless, burnt-out thug on parole, a directionless, burnt-out cop on the verge of retirement, and a directionless, burnt-out death row escapee who independently seek redemption and meaning by avenging or protecting the fallen women who for a fleeting moment made their lives worthwhile. Stylishly adapted with gory exuberance by Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino from the stylishly bloody graphic novels of Frank Miller.... Read more

Oliver Stone’s surprisingly so-so costume drama with Collin Farrell (looking a bit like a surfer dude), Angelina Jolie, Val Kilmer, Jared Leto, Rosario Dawson, and Anthony Hopkins opens today. While it’s not properly terrible, it’s definitely a disappointment — and in some ways a bit of a mess: One gets the sense that it was conceived in chronological order and then scrambled in the editing room to give it a JFK/Nixon vibe....
