We all know that a lot of our favorite movies would be nothing without their very important leading ladies, so for this week’s blog I decided to find the Top Ten Best actresses of all time.
In the 10th spot we have Laura Linney, best known for her roles in Mystic River, You Can Count on Me, and The Truman Show, Laura has been nominated and/or won over 30 Acting awards from 1998-2007.
In 9th place we have the one and only, Cameron Diaz. She has appeared in Shrek, The Mask, There’s Something about Mary, and many more. She has also been nominated and/or taken over 30 Acting Awards from 1997-2004.
8th place brings in Sigourney Weaver, who has graced our movie screens since the 70’s. Weaver is best known for her roles in Alien, Working Girl, and Imaginary Heroes.
In the 7th position, Julia Roberts graces us with her presence, and let’s face it no surprise here for this “pretty woman.” Julia is best remembered for her roles in Pretty Woman, Erin Brochovich, My Best Friends wedding and countless other films. Erin Brochovich alone earned her a whopping 15 awards, which I find amazing for a single actress.
In 6th place we have the famous Katherine Hepburn, who has been gracing the movie scene since the 30’s. She is found in movies such as The Philadelphia Story, Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, and The African Queen. She has won 10 Best Actress awards in her movie lifetime, and has left and unbelievable impression on us all.
The 5th place goes to Nicole Kidman, a flawless actress that has starred in movies such as Happy Feet, Moulin Rouge, The Hours, and many many more. Her movie count exceeds 42 films and countless more awards for most of them. She definitely deserves a spot here on the Top 10.
In 4th place we have Julianne Moore, known best for her roles in Children of Men, Far from Heaven, and Boogie Nights. She too, has won many prestigious acting awards in her lifetime.
Kate Winslet, takes the 3rd spot of the Top 10, known for her famous roles in Titanic, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and Sense and Sensability. Many of her movie roles have earned her numerous awards throughout the years.
Taking 2nd place is Cate Blanchett, Known best for her roles in Lord of the Rings, Notes on a Scandal, and the Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Many of her roles have earned her Best Actress Awards, which may be why this leading lady has scored a top spot on the Top 10.
And at the Very top of the list we have, Meryl Streep, who has graced the movie screen in many films such as Manhattan, Adaptation, The Hours, The River Wild, and more recently Doubt. And let’s face it, theres no “doubt” about it, that this leading lady has well paid her due to earn the top spot of our Top 10!
Well there they are, the Top 10 Leading ladies of all time. Our movie’s would definitely not be the same without them!
