Carice Van Houten Biography
Born September 5, 1976, in the Netherlands, actress Carice van Houten worked steadily in her native country on both the small and big screens, garnering a number of nominations for her work. She first started to acquire international fame as the star of Paul_Verhoeven's Black_Book, portraying Rachel Stein, a Jewish woman who disguises herself and uses her allure and beauty in order to manipulate the Nazis in charge of the occupation of Holland. The exposure from her work in that film served as a springboard for van Houten, and she was soon appearing prominantly in high-profile Hollywood pictures, such as Bryan_Singer's WWII drama Valkyrie, starring Tom_Cruise; the sci-fi film Repossession_Mambo, as the wife of Jude_Law's character; and the biographical drama Vivaldi, starring Joseph_Fiennes as the classical composer.
