actresses whose movies you never miss

[mamabeard]

the two that pop into my brain right now are vanessa redgrave and meryl streep. both are strong, soulful, kind, funny, and self possessed. i'll try to think of others (i know there are others i just can't think of right now)..

so, who are your favourites, and why?

[mojomom]

Julia roberts, i really like her and find her energy in movies to be infectious. Also Diane Keaton and Meryl Steep.

[pamamidwife]

Catherine Keener. Never has let me down. I don't know if she's ever made a horrible movie.

Maggie Gyllenhaal

[MelKnee]

Bette Midler - I see all of her movies. I haven't liked all of them but, I can usually count on her to give a great performance. Comedy and drama. Love her!

[Joi]

Pam- I T A !!!! Those are two of my favorite actresses in the whole wiiiide world. Therefore you rock!

Oh and I can't forget Parker Posey.

[IslandMamma]

oh, I Parker Posey!!! Does anyone remember the movie "Henry Fool", btw? One of my favorites, and she was brilliant in it...

-Juliette Binoche
-Michelle Rodriguez
-Liv Tyler


...and I'm totally embarrased to admit this, but I like Julia Roberts. I do. She's purdy.

[Jennifer Z]

Emma Thompson, especially if she is matched with Kenneth Brannah. Those two have such a good chemistry. She always seems to pick really thoughtful works too.

I get a kick out of Sandra Bullock...I don't know what it is, but I really enjoy her.

[pamamidwife]

oh, yeah, Parker Posey! Party Girl!

Jennifer Jason Leigh.............she always makes interesting choices in her roles and is an astounding actor
