Originally from Bucharest, Romania, Elina emigrated to the US as a child under somewhat harrowing circumstances. She studied&amp;nbsp;acting and started performing in theater productions in&amp;nbsp;New York and was hired by Hal Hartley after he saw her in play. She starred in a&amp;nbsp;number of his films including Simple Men, Amateur and Flirt, and in the last 30 years, has acted in everything from Schindler's List to Seinfeld to Basquiat to A Very Long Engagement, and this is just a small sampling of her work! Most recently, Elina starred in the excellent experimental sci-fi film After Blue (Dirty Paradise)!
