->''"I'd like to have had my career move a little slower, I find the attention just a bit daunting."''

Betsy Brantley, (1955), is an American actress best known for starring in ''Five Days One Summer'' with Creator/SeanConnery.

After several small roles in theatre and a small role in ''Film/ShockTreatment'' as reporter Neely Pritt, Brantley was cast as Kate in ''Five Days One Summer''. Creator/FredZinnemann didn't want a well-known actress in order to keep the illusion of virtue.

After ''Five Days'', Brantley went on to star in more films, most notably in ''Film/IComeInPeace'', ''Film/{{Schizopolis}}'', and in ''Film/{{Kimi}}'' as the voice of the titular character. She was also used in ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit'' as the performance model Jessica Rabbit would be animated over.

Brantley also played roles on TV in ''Series/TourOfDuty'' as Dr. Jennifer Seymour and in ''Second Noah'' as Jesse Beckett.

Despite her stardom, Brantley remains a rather private person. She was married to Creator/StevenSoderbergh until 1994 and the two had one daughter.
