Her next two films Gozāresh (The Report) (1977), directed by Abbas

Revolution in 1979, subsequently becoming a U.S. citizen. After
several years playing small roles in television and film, her

film critics' awards and a nomination for an Academy Award for Best
Supporting Actress. Her other film appearances include The Exorcism
of Emily Rose (2005), X-Men: The Last Stand, The Nativity Story
(both 2006), The Odd Life of Timothy Green (2013) and Star Trek
