2009 Reader Awards: Best Actress

February 17, 2009

Sure, Leo, I could give acting lessons some time.

Continuing the theme of our readers generally lining up with our staff on movies and performances this past year, our top three choices for Best Actress are the same as yours. Your order is slightly different, as you chose Kate Winslet in Revolutionary Road as your winner, while we placed her in third. Our Best Actress winner was Anne Hathaway for Rachel Getting Married. Our order varied slightly on Doubt's Meryl Streep as well, since we had her placing second versus your third.

The only big difference of opinion you had from us was in selecting Angelina Jolie for her performance in Changeling. We do you give you guys huge bonus points for making Mila Kunis and Kristen Bell strong contenders for Forgetting Sarah Marshall and throwing some votes Anna Faris' way for The House Bunny. Meanwhile, those of you who voted for Rhona Mitra in Doomsday were clearly distracted by things that had nothing to do with acting.
