The 10 greatest film performances by an actress

I would have to say that the 10 greatest performances by an actress I have ever seen are these:

1. Kate Hepburn in THE LION IN WINTER (1968)

2. Maggie Smith in THE PRIME OF MISS JEAN BRODIE (1968)

3. Bette Davis in ALL ABOUT EVE (1950)

4. Maria Falconetti in THE PASSION OF JOAN OF ARC (1928)

5. Meryl Streep in SOPHIE'S CHOICE (1982)

6. Guiletta Masina in NIGHTS OF CABIRIA (1957) and LA STRADA (1954)

7. Melina Mecuri (sp?) in NEVER ON SUNDAY (1960)

8. Jill Clayburgh in AN UNMARRIED WOMAN (1978)

9. Jeanne Moreau in JULES AND JIM (1962)

10. Gena Rowlands in A WOMAN UNDER THE INFLUENCE (1975)

The hard part was deciding what to leave off.

A list of the worst performances would be easier as there are so many bad ones. Pamela Anderson would probably top that list.....
