Tina Turner (born Anna Mae Bullock; November 26, 1939) is an American singer and actress whose career has spanned more than 50 years. She has won numerous awards. Turner started out her music career with husband Ike Turner as a member of the Ike & Tina Turner Revue. Success followed with a string of hits including "River Deep, Mountain High" and the 1971 hit "Proud Mary". With the publication of her autobiography I, Tina (1986), Turner revealed severe instances of spousal abuse against her by Ike Turner prior to their 1976 split and subsequent 1978 divorce. After virtually disappearing from the music scene for several years following her divorce from Ike Turner, she rebuilt her career, launching a string of hits beginning in 1983 with the single "Let's Stay Together" and the 1984 release of her fifth solo album Private Dancer.
Her musical career led to film roles, beginning with a prominent role as The Acid Queen in the 1975 film Tommy, and an appearance in Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. She starred opposite Mel Gibson as Aunty Entity in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome for which she received the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture, and her version of the film's theme, "We Don't Need Another Hero", was a hit single. She appeared in the 1993 film Last Action Hero.
When provocatively impish drug addict Sophie is forcibly shipped off by her passive mother and brutally domineering stepfather to dodgy, messianic and platitude-spouting Dr. Arthur Hail's completely isolated Fiji island boot camp for wayward teens (a.k.a. Camp Serenity), her perfectly respectable boyfriend Ben refuses to stand passively by. He fakes a drug problem to get himself enrolled in Dr. Hail's Advanced Serenity Achievement Program, where he plans to find and escape with Sophie. Meanwhile both teens witness and endure the physically harsh and psychologically brutal conditions fostered by the doctor and enforced by Logan, his militaristic and imposing chief of security - where all "enrollees" have "less rights than prisoners on death row."

Sophie: Will you do something for me?::Ben: Yeah. Sure, anything. What?::Sophie: Marry me.::Ben: [laughs] Wha... Yeah. Okay. This must be good weed.
Ben: I told her to take it easy on you but she was right. You're a prick.
Sophie: Yeah, it wasn't really a very friendly welcome chaining us to some cement blocks and then nearly half-drown...::Dr. Arthur Hail: Each one of you have emotionally, psychologically and even physically kept your parent chained to a block of concrete day and night for years now, so we think it's only fair to let our newcomers experience what it must feel like to be in your parents' shoes, if only for one night.
Ellen: Everyone starts as a black shirt. It symbolizes your confused emotional state. As you work the program you progress, first to yellow and then to white, like me. If you work the program, it will work for you.
Dr. Arthur Hail: A clear conscience is to your soul what good health is to your body.
Dr. Arthur Hail: [watching the girls kick Sophie in a group assault] Every time we give these kids the proper incentive, they will rise to the occasion.
Sophie: So what's the big idea?::Dr. Arthur Hail: The idea? I'll give you one cookie; in return, you open up and tell me all your deep dark secrets.::Sophie: Well, here's a deep, dark secret for you, Doc - I hate cookies.
Sophie: Look, if Hail said this is a good place, maybe this is the right place for me.::Ben: Look, forget Hail.::Sophie: Okay.::Ben: He doesn't know what he's talkin' about. He's not even a real doctor. He got his Ph.D. on the Internet.
Rhonda: [reading a student's letter-writing lesson] "My sweetest girl, I've been dead for a few years now, but I know you'd rather hear from me than anyone living, because no matter what you do, you know I'll always support you. Don't judge your mother too harshly. She loves you dearly and is doing her best."
Dr. Arthur Hail: When did you first realize that you couldn't trust Ben?::Ben's Father: It was only a short while ago. Uh, frankly, it came outta nowhere. Uh, that's why it was so painful for us. He told us that his girlfriend dumped him.::Dr. Arthur Hail: Sophie.::Ben's Father: That's right. He took it real hard, and, uh, before that we never had any problems. Ben convinced us your program would help him.
