As time progressed decent film roles were becoming less available to her and demand for her as an actress was decreasing.  However she made a comeback with her role in the 1987 film, "Barfly" for which Faye was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress.      

Along with film work she has also appeared on a number of television series such as, "Columbo", "Soul Food", "Touched By an Angel", "A Will of Their Own", "Alias" and "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation".
