Best Actress ?

Sat Jul 01, 2006 11:27 am

In your opinion, who's the best actress and what movies etc do you most remember them for ?

For me its a tie between

Jodie Foster - Silence of the lambs, Contact, Panic Room and Flightplan

and

Judi Dench - James Bond

I like Jodie Foster. My brother likes her for her part in Silence of the Lambs and I like her for her part in Panic Room. I like all the main actresses in CSI: Miami too.

Jodie Foster is cool, but I think the best actress of all time was Vivien Leigh (A Streetcar Named Desire, Gone with the Wind). Silence of the Lambs was a great movie though.

Jodie Foster. :) I loved her in Panic Room and Contact.

I'm probably not voting for the most skillful actresses out there, but i love Mandy Moore and Julia Stiles. movies with them in it are generally quite good. what i mean is, i like romantic comedies with them in them

Both of them are quite talented. I loved Moore in Saved! and Julia Stiles was excellent in Save the Last Dance

Nicole Kidman's pretty awsome too. Especially in The Others and The Hours.

I really don't pay much attention to celebrities, but I really like Uma Thurman. She completely owned in Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill.

I love Meryl Streep and Kathy Bates.

IMO, Meryl is just the definition of a great actress and she's the epitome of greatness. And she's awesome in The Devil Wears Prada.

And Kathy Bates, c'mon her putting that block in between that guys feet in Misery, and then just freakin whacking it with the hammer, or whatever it was, was just plain awesome... Not that I like that type of stuff, it was just done in a cold merciless way.

Meryl Streep and Rachel McAdams.

Both are brilliant actresses and I love their movies. Amazing work really.

I've seen a lot of Meryl Streep, (The Hours, The Devil Wears Prada, etc.) But I haven't seen Rachel McAdams around a lot. =\ Maybe I'm just not paying attention.

Well, she's done movies such as Mean Girls, The Family Stone, Red Eye and The Notebook among many others. Those are just her most notable.

I don't watch many movies, but of the last television season, I thought Jean Smart (first lady Martha Logan on 24) blew everyone away by far.

And whoever played the president did a great job, too.

(Albeit, I don't think he's a woman. :P)
