To equalize my attack on Natalie Portman, I will defend an actress a lot of people dis-respected...
Edited on Sun May-24-09 07:30 PM by Mike 03
Just so you know I'm not only about criticizing actresses.

Ally Sheedy.

Not only was she amazing in "High Art," but she writes great poetry. Check out her impressive collection of poems, "Yesterday I Saw The Sun."

Severely under-rated. She's not exactly Hillary Swank, but she's very good.

:loveya:

EDIT:

Changed "hate" to "disrespect." Hate is way too strong a word.

2. I don't think anyone hates her
MAJOR crush on her when I saw "The Breakfast Club" in college.

4. And we all pretty much agree that she was dynamite in HIGH ART?
Am I right?

9. Oscar-worthy, imo
I met her years ago when I was working in a bookstore in Wilmington, NC. Very nice woman.

6. So glad to hear that. This was not the case in the mid 80s, but I'm glad to hear learn that
nobody remembers that or cares anymore.

5. How does she get work? She cant act, she's not pretty, and her attempts at accents ruin movies.
