Earlier this week, Nathaniel over at The Film Experience posted pics of his top 20 actresses, and since then it's become the meme sensation that's sweeping the blog-nation. As yet, nobody has officially tagged me, but I've never let that stop me before. So here's my contribution to the cause- if these aren't necessarily my "top 20", they're certainly 20 who've fascinated me and given me plenty of enjoyment as a moviegoer. And now, away we go, in rough chronological order:
Louise Brooks
Marlene Dietrich
Barbara Stanwyck
Gloria Grahame
Delphine Seyrig
Gena Rowlands
Catherine Deneuve
Vanessa Redgrave
Juliet Berto
Liv Ullmann
Hanna Schygulla
Madeline Kahn
Isabelle Huppert
Meryl Streel... er, Streep
Linda Manz
Judy Davis
Juliette Binoche
Maggie Cheung
Emmanuelle DevosAnd finally, in tribute to the overpowering awesomeness of Synecdoche, New York, the Kaufmanesque doppelgangers...
Samantha Morton, and...
Emily Watson
