1. mulholland dr. (one of the best performances ever; pulpy winner - best actress, 2001)
2. the painted veil (2006 pulpy nominee - best actress, drama)
3. i heart huckabees
4. ellie parker (it's like her mulholland performance lite)
5. we don't live here anymore
6. the ring (acts scared without going over the top; something always admirable but not quite fantastic, as opposed to, say, kidman in the others)
7. king kong (everything in this movie felt fake...including the acting)
8. 21 grams (ouch)
