“I have one that no one came around to, and I’m still embarrassed that I was in, it’s called Speed 2, and I’m very vocal about it. Makes no sense: slow boat, slowly going towards an island,” she said to Entertainment Weekly. “That’s one that I wished I hadn’t done.”

Outside of film work, Sandra became a restaurateur in 2006, opening Bess Bistro in her adopted hometown of Austin, Texas. Three years later she added a second eatery, Walton’s Fancy and Staple. “The acting thing is so beyond my control,” Sandra told Vogue in 2013. “Acting isn’t mine. You are like a tiny piece in this big corporate mechanism that needs chemistry and divine intervention. This [Bess Bistro and Walton’s Fancy and Staple] is mine.”
