'Catwoman' flop is highlight for Berry

Halle Berry says making Catwoman was a highlight of her career despite it being a box-office flop.

The movie was slammed by critics and Berry's performance was awarded a Razzie – the prize for Hollywood's worst acting.

Speaking at the Cannes Film Festival launch of the new X Men, however, the actress said none of that made her regret it.

"I had a wonderful experience on Catwoman, a wonderful experience," she commented. "Some perform well, some don't. The audience has a right to reject certain things. But it doesn't mean the experience was anything less meaningful for me than anything else I've ever done.

"In fact it was one of the highlights because I pushed myself and grew as an artist in ways that never will be realised by anybody but me. To me it was well worth it."
