Amy’s Favorite 100 Actresses
67-62.
67. Ludivine Sagnier (FR, ’79), 66. Eva Green (FR, ’80), 65. Kou Shibasaki (JP, ’81), Audrey Tautou (FR, ’76), Jennifer Connelly (US, ’70), Do-yeon Jeon (KR, ’73).
How’s it going up ’til now? Do you want to call me names already?
Do-yeon Jeon roles are far between, but she usually defies convention whenever she’s on the big screen. Now, if only South Korean film would just let her be, and give this woman as varied a gig as Song Kang-Ho gets to have.
61-56.
61. Rachel Weisz (UK, ’70), 60. Holly Hunter (US, ’58), 59. Hikari Mitsushima (JP, ’85), 58. Saoirse Ronan (IE, ’94), 57. Joan Chen (CN-US, ’61), 56. Laura Linney (US, ’64).
I didn’t think Hikari Mitsushima would place so high, but her evolution grade (this process is just like Pokemon) gave her a boost, considering she went from pop idol to working with the likes of Sono Sion, Sang-il Lee and Takashi Miike, while proving she’s a pretty good actress at that.
In the meantime… Saoirse gave me serious Winslet vibes now that she’s more grown up. Especially because she looks way older than she really is. I’d like to think that Hanna could totally get rid off Katniss if she wanted it… and I’d like to think that Saoirse could totally pull off any of the roles that J.Law has done, but J.Law wouldn’t be able to pull off Briony.
great list! You even included more than a few I had forgotten to suggest!
@Diandra Rodriguez, and more names started popping up after I settled for the photos. Namely… Anna Kendrick xD and Vera Farmiga.
Well, #1 is a surprise that comes from nowhere.
@Ghost Writer, I was a little surprised myself.
