compared to whom? It's not like the Academy is going to be naming Emanuelle Beart, Sylvie Testud and Gong Li every year.

i think the list is pretty damn solid, especially for its quota of skinny blonde chicks

Anyway, I think her best work was probably made back in the early '80s, so maybe she's just the wrong age for this board.
Hey, this is a board that listed 1980 as the cut-off date.
We totally disagree – she's improved, warmed, whatever. She's insufferable in The French Lieutenant's Woman, Sophie's Choice and In the Still of the Night.

One of my friends went to college with Jodi Foster. Said she was very nice.

Laura Linney is massively overrated but I don't hate her. Actually I don't hate most of the actresses on this list but I hate some of the movies they were in with a fiery passion.

(For example, I love Nicole Kidman to death but MY GOD "THE HOURS" WAS A GIGANTIC PILE OF HORSESHIT)
Actually the only one I really hate is Julianne Moore.

even if Linney never made a good movie ever again, I would have to love her because of You Can Count on Me.

The Hours is so so bad.

nah, Linney's just entering Philip Seymour Hoffman overrated land, but she's fine.

Interesting. You know I was going to mention when this thread was still active that I was surprised no one had mentioned Michelle Pfeiffer, but there you go.
