Does enchantment pour out of every door?


And here's another classy group, My Favorite Actresses (some works in which they appear are also listed):
1) Helen Mirren: Not just because she's on a roll this year, but because every year she is consistently brilliant. The Long Good Friday; The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover; Prime Suspect
2) Lena Olin:Nobody does femme fatale better. The Unbearable Lightness of Being; Romeo is Bleeding; Alias
3)Vivien Leigh: Her life may have held more drama than her career, but she deservedly won the role of the century. Gone With the Wind; Waterloo Bridge; The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone
4) Judy Davis: The world's best actress period-end-of-sentence. My Brilliant Career; Naked Lunch; Husbands and Wives
5) Greta Scacchi: Another fatal femme, while influencing many an actress (Sharon Stone, hello??), she has not yet had the career she deserves. White Mischief; The Player; Emma

6) Audrey Hepburn: Arguably the most glamourous actress, ever (Grace Kelly notwithstanding). Sabrina; Funny Face; Breakfast at Tiffany's
7) Jean Arthur: That voice! Mr. Smith Goes to Washington; Only Angels Have Wings; The More the Merrier
8) Irene Dunne: Nobody sparred better with Cary Grant. The Awful Truth; Life with Father; Anna and the King of Siam
9) Juliette Binoche: A perfect combination of Audrey Hepburn and Ingrid Bergman. Damage; Chocolat; The English Patient
10) Emanuelle Beart: Heartbreakingly beautiful. Un Coeur en Hiver; Manon of the Spring; Mission: Impossible
