I agree, Suzy. In Homicide her eyebrows were far bushier.

ok, aside from the 2 ER episodes the only Margulies work I appear to have seen is Richard Linklater's The Newton Boys, of which I only remember that it had a studly cast and Eric Bogosian was sitting behind me.

I really only know her from TV but I loved her character on "ER".
not gonna lie, this poll is pretty much the result of irrational Moore dislike combined with free association but it did give me some Margulies things to check out

Moore has impressed me since Vanya on 42nd Street, but her career is justified by Far From Heaven and her Baez impression in I'm Not There alone.

What, her bare vag in Short Cuts failed to turn you on?

"Far From Heaven" is the only Moore performance that I think justifies the hype; I actively loathed her in pretty much everything else I've seen her in (except "Children of Men", mostly because of what happened to her).

i don't quite have Perry-level dislike of Moore, but she's been a drag in far more movies than she's been good in. also don't understand the sexiest woman alive thing, she's a classy broad and all but i've never really looked at her that way in the slightest. Margulies is v hot though.

Michael Caine's made more terrible movies than anyone we've ever polled, but they're not held against him, right?
Good Moore performances: Vanya on 42 Street, Safe, Boogie Nights, Far From Heaven, I'm Not There. She can a freckled drip, though, sure.

*she can be
ya but how many other actresses can play freckled so convincingly and consistently?

ha – just realized that Moore is "Domino Dancing" in red-haired freckled form to Dan.

a hit-or-miss actress in things i tend to see vs. a reliably ok actress in things i tend to ignore

If Michael Caine's bad movies aren't held against him, it's because he is usually not the main reason why the movie is terrible. "Goldmember" had way more problems in it than Michael Caine, for example.
In fairness, I don't hold "The Hours" against Julianne Moore because everyone else in it except for Toni Collette and Meryl Streep was really the end of the fucking world and should never have been offered a role again.

I would have said Moore, then Margulies, then Moore again, and now Margulies on the basis of "The Good Wife. She's such a good wife!

Moore is 5'4" and Marg is 5'6" acc to google
― some dude, Thursday, 7 January 2010 16:23 (fourteen years ago) link
i think Moore's statuesque features make her seem like she could be tall but i can definitely easily picture her being short
5'4"!
― chartres (goole), Thursday, 7 January 2010 16:24 (fourteen years ago) link
Marg is more like 5'8", trust me on this one.

She was good in the Sopranos and Traveller (underrated movie in general). Oh yeah, she was also in the ridiculous but fun TV version of The Mists Of Avalon
Voted Moore - if only for Safe
