Tom over at Movies and Music Cafe decided to give me a list of his top ten cool leading ladies, and it is a rather impressive list! Tom runs an awesome site with a great little menu offering an array of starters, mains and desserts, ranging from movies, reviews, books, soundtrack and the likes. It is a very cool site that I would highly recommend checking out!
Should you be interested in submitting a Top Ten list, draw up a list of either your top ten personal favourite movies or a top ten list by a specific genre/theme and send it along to me at sporadiczoe@hotmail.com. Hope to see a few more lists!
TEN COOL LEADING LADIES
Audrey Hepburn (1929 – 1993) One of THE style icons. Coolest Role: Breakfast at Tiffanys.
Grace Kelly (1929 – 1982) Actress AND Princess! Coolest Role: Rear Window
Brigitte Bardot (1934 – ) The classic blonde bombshell but with substance. Coolest Role: Contempt!
Faye Dunaway (1941 – ) In so many classic sixties and seventies films. Coolest Role: Bonnie & Clyde
Diane Keaton (1946 – ) One of the best actresses of all time? Coolest Role: Annie Hall (but nearly The Godfather)!
Anjelica Huston (1951 – ) Never a show stopper, but amazing in everything. Coolest Role: The Royal Tenenbaums
Julianne Moore (1960 – ) Never short of excellent in all her films. A modern great. Coolest Role: Boogie Nights
Diane Lane (1965 – ) Talented actress in the eighties and nineties. Coolest Role: Rumble Fish
Natalie Portman (1981 – ) Beautiful and talented, most would say Garden State is her best, but her Coolest Role: is in Hotel Chevalier, a Wes Anderson short film.
Jennifer Lawrence (1990 – ) The new girl on the block, but instantly great. Coolest Role: Hunger Games
Wow…what a stellar list! Very intriguing, well thought-out, and allows us to witness the evolution of the leading lady. Great work, all around :).

Excellent list! Audrey Hepburn was perfection as both an actress and as a human being; her devotion to charitable endeavors for the benefit of others seemed to know, no bounds. I have liked Natalie Portman since I saw her in the professional, and I love Jennifer Lawrence in everything she does.
