Helen Mirren is one of Britain's most beloved actresses. But back in the '70s, before landing her first television gig, she tried to make ends meet while working as a promoter for an amusement park in Southend-on-Sea in Essex. Her job's exact nature included attracting customers for rides at The Kursaal amusement park. It's safe to say that Mirren has had a roller coaster of a career since, starring in movies such as "Gosford Park," "Eye in the Sky," and "The Good Liar" and bagging herself an Oscar for "The Queen."
