Re: Best Contemporary Actress Tournament
I'm going with Laura Linney and Gong Li, both of whom advance.
Back in a few...

Actress Quotes:
"You never have sex the way people do in the movies. You don't do it on the floor, you don't do it standing up, you don't always have all your clothes off, you don't happen to have on all the sexy lingerie. You know, if anybody ever ripped my clothes, I'd kill them."
- Julianne Moore
"I wouldn't mind being in an American film for a laugh, but I certainly don't want to be in Thingy Blah Blah 3, if you know what I mean."
- Audrey Tautou
Ah, but films like The Da Vinci Code are okay?

Re: Best Contemporary Actress Tournament
Julianne Moore ( tough voting against McDormand )
Audrey Tautou
John - I wasn't suggesting that Laura Linney looked like the Wicked Witch of the West, merely that I prefer (and that's an understatement) Jennifer Connelly on a 'looks' basis.
- Walter.
Fidelity to the source should always be the goal for Blu-ray releases.

Audrey probably said that before she saw how many zeros came on the check for the Thingy Blah Blah

Re: Best Contemporary Actress Tournament
And in other news French actress Audrey Tautou has stopped performing in French films and will concentrate solely on American blockbusters. Her first film will be the romantic comedy Thingy Blah Blah for which she is being paid $5,000,000.00.
