Last month I posted "Favorite Five - Actors". Now it's time for the women, a more difficult task. I mostly drew from movies and would probably have had lots more runners up if I'd thought harder about TV shows.
1. Sandra Bullock - I liked her in Miss Congeniality , but she's also proven herself in dramatic roles.
2. Jodie Foster - Looking over her filmography, I was amazed at how many television shows she appeared in as a child.
3. Dawn Wells - "Mary Ann" and "the Professor" were my favorite characters on Gilligan's Island. You should see her in The Town that Dreaded Sundown! (said with tongue in cheek)
4. Kathy Bates - The first thing I remember seeing her in was Misery, but perhaps her funniest role was "Mama Boucher" in The Waterboy.
5. Julia Roberts - For some reason this actress use to irritate me, but the more things I've seen her in, the more I like her.
Runners up: Grace Kelly, Kathleen Turner, Sigourney Weaver, Jamie Lee Curtis, Sally Field, Eve Plumb (my favorite "Brady")
- Kelly
- Making my way through the ups and downs of life, holding fast to my favorite Bible verse: "For we walk by faith, not by sight." ~2 Corinthians 5:7. I began blogging in earnest at Yahoo360 on October 24, 2005. (briefly using LiveJournal and blog-city prior to that) In June 2008 I moved to Blogger. I'm now at WordPress where I hope to remain.

Ummm, a difficult one this. In no particular order -
Wynona Ryder (?) from 'Edward Scissorhands'.
Sandra Bullock - I love her goofy, quirky characters such as in 'The Proposal' and she isn't skinny which is nice to see.
Jennifer Grey - 'Dirty Dancing'. What I wouldn't give to dance like that AND with Parick Swayze.
Julia Roberts - I think she is so versatile.
Judy Dench - Good to see an older actress with a face that moves, she's so glamorous.
Hmmmm.... I can't vote for Denzel, right?
