<p>Beloved '90s Actress Looks Nearly Unrecognizable 37 Years After Starring in 'Rain Man' originally appeared on Parade.</p>
<p>This iconic actress has appeared in countless major films — sharing the screen with stars like Tom Cruise and Sandra Bullock.</p>
<p>If you've seen shows like The Golden Girls, Friends or CSI, or blockbusters like Rain Man and Speed, chances are you've seen her work.</p>
<p>Beth Grant, 75, has built a notable career with over 100 film credits across the '80s and 2000s. And now, the veteran actress has been spotted making a rare public apperance in Los Angeles.</p>
<p>Grant looked nearly unrecognizable from her usual on-screen roles, donning a nautical-themed outfit and oversized straw hat — and she pulled it off quite well.</p>
<p>Though she usually tends to keep a low profile, the actress stepped back into the spotlight with a rare carpet outing earlier this year.</p>

<p>Although she got her start in film back in the late '70s, her breakout role came in 1988 with Rain Man. The opportunity was so emotional for her, she called her father in tears.</p>
<p>"I called my dad and I was crying. I was just crying because I couldn't believe it," she told Collider in an interview. "I had thought since the day they called me I knew I was going to do it different and do it strong, this pioneer woman, and I just felt like it was going to go all the way, that movie."</p>
<p>And she was right — Rain Man marked a major turning point in her career. She soon landed roles in even bigger films, including Speed, where she starred alongside Keanu Reeves.</p>
<p>When asked which roles she's most proud of, Grant didn't hold back — and let's just say, her list is very impressive.</p>
<p>"I'm also very proud of Kitty Farmer in Donnie Darko and I'm very proud of Sissy Hickey in Sordid Lies and Willadean in Blues for Willadean," she said to the outlet. "I like a lot of my crazy characters. I love my character in Little Miss Sunshine with that big ol' bouffant flip."</p>
<p>While she's grateful for the many roles she's had, there's one part she still wishes she landed.</p>
<p>"Well, there are some that I didn't get that I really wanted. Like, at the time, I really wanted Titanic, and Kathy Bates got it," she revealed.</p>
<p>Even after decades in the business, Grant shows no signs of slowing down. In recent years, she's appeared in series like The Bondsman and Mayfair Witches, continuing to add to her already iconic resume.</p>
