[unassuming]

Mine is 4 times nominated, 2 times Oscar winner, Jodie Foster, been watching her on TV and Film, sicne she was a child actor.

 

[Anbarandy]

Audrey Hepburn

Runner ups:

Lana Turner
Agnes Moorehead
Leslie Caron
Virginia Mayo

 

[WyattEarp]

I'm going to skip over the obvious A-list movie actresses and mention Rachel Brosnahan. She is very talented.

 

[bemeup]

Laura Linney is always brilliant.

 

[Insidious Von]

From the classic era: Ingrid Bergman.

My current favorite I can't watch much of. She stirs my loins with much intensity, can't take much of that Latino/Irish mix.

 

[Samranchoi]

Audrey Hepburn by a wide margin. Also a favorite of many of the women I have visited. Currently, I really like Rebecca Ferguson

 

[danmand]

My current favorite I can't watch much of. She stirs my loins with much intensity, can't take much of that Latino/Irish mix.

Agree on Ingrid Bergman. Jessica chastain is un-watchable.

I stumbled across the last hour of Silence of the Lambs on TV on the weekend. I have seen this movie over a dozen times and I was STILL on edge when she went in the house at the end. I mean I KNOW what is going to happen and it sill got me!

I watched it also, still gets me every time!

 

[Gentlemoan]

I will tell if porn stars are included. lOl

 

[Darts]

Only one, eh. I'll go with Natalie Portman. (There should be two categories. One for the modern era and one for the prehistoric.)

 

[Don Draper]

Good Christ!

It's damn near impossible to come up with one!

It's like selecting only ONE favourite piece of music!!!

Absolutes:

Audrey Hepburn

Juliette Binoche

Monica Bellucci (let's see any feeble hollywood actress even attempt "Malena")

The great Jeon Do-Yeon (the only Asian female actor to ever win Best Actress at Cannes)

....and of course, La Tremenda Streep.​

 

[bigshot]

Dianne Lane always does it for me! What a beauty...

 

[xmontrealer]

Scarlett Johansson. Stunning, versatile, a great actress, and even her voice all by itself (in the movie Her) does it for me.

 

[The Oracle]

Meryl Streep

 

[MissCroft]

Dianne Lane always does it for me! What a beauty...

Love Diane Lane. I used to be told occasionally that I looked a bit like her.

 

[Insidious Von]

This new decade belongs to Samara Weaving

Sam Raimi laughed at Sony all the way to the bank...no they didn't burn down Casa Loma.

 

[Rugbywolf]

Glen Close. 7 oscar nominations but just could never win one

 

[J.A. Prufrock]

Glen Close. 7 oscar nominations but just could never win one

Are you saying she was close but no cigar?

I say this babe from Narcos. Don't know her name or her credits or even her acting ability. But she's hot as fuck and that's really all that matters:

 

[Insidious Von]

Anbarandy included Lana Turner, she had the bedroom sexiness down pat. The actor she worked with on The Postman Always Rings Twice is significant, Tom Hardy is a later day John Garfield.

The Postman Always Rings Twice was remade in the early 80's starring Jessica Lange and Jack Nicholson.
