Desperation is never appealing...

Emily Watson Julie Christie Having seen both in person...believe me, Emily Watson has by far the most appealing presence....and she didn't have to walk around with her boobs hanging out just to get noticed like Maggie did.

Nicole Kidman Gena Rowlands

Frances McDormand Franka Potente

Jennifer Connelly Isabelle Adjani

Charlotte Rampling Jennifer Jason Leigh

Joan Allen Sarah Polley

Maggie Smith Meryl Streep - I agree with Katherine Hepburn. I'm picking Meryl as she is the most talented of the three picks...but I still think that she is a terrible actress. Never in her performances do you ever see or feel the character she is playing, it's always Meryl Streep 'honing'...

Isabelle Adjani - great in Queen Margot and had sex with a tentacled creature in Possession Scarlett Johansson

Catherine Deneuve - with Jodie at a close second. Loved Deneuve in The Hunger :) Kate Winslet I've met Maggie Cheung :)

Judi Dench - but Ms Li sure is pretty :) Irene Jacob I've seen Cameron Diaz in person :)

Juliette Binoche Claire Danes - but I find all 3 to be rather uninteresting actresses I've seen Daryl Hannah in person :)

Tilda Swinton - a terrific actress, if sometimes a little scary :) , stand-out work includes The War Zone, Young Adam, Concieving Ada, and many films with Derek Jarman. Helen Mirren - no contest here, one of my favorite 'real' actress's. Amazing in The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and Her...

Franka Potente - a bit of a toss-up here Annette Bening

Julie Christie Naomi Watts No contest here, I would only call Roberts, Berry and Ryan 'actresses' on a technicality as they have actually appeared in movies and that counts as something.

Sissy Spacek - a very fine, beautiful actress who can deliver a touching performance without a bagful of obvious acting tricks. Julianne Moore is good also but there's just something annoying/fake about her that I just can't put my finger on. Jennifer Jason Leigh - a good actress although...

Kathleen Turner - stunning in both Crimes of Passion and Prizzi's Honor. Keaton comes in at a close second. Natalie Portman - not particularly wild about any of these 3

Charlotte Rampling - voting against my own write-in nomination of Bellucci who is indeed stunning, but hasn't yet displayed the acting chops of Ms Rampling Catherine Keener - a smart and sexy lady. Judy Davis is quite good too, but for some bizarre reason, insists on appearing in 'whiteface'...

Nicole Kidman - terrific actress who makes brave choices, and don't forget her superb perfomance in the film Birth Samantha Morton - Connelly is a close second, but I much prefer the pre-teen/teenage Connelly over the adult Connelly. Connelly was amazing in Once Upon a Time in America and it...

Gena Rowlands Emily Watson I've met Emily Watson in person! :) If it ever makes it to DVD, check out Milos Forman's first American film Taking Off. In the opening moments of the film, we see an audition/sing-in scene which features a very young and slimmer Kathy Bates singing a song of...
