poll is invalid without 101 dalmatians.

jk she's really good in pretty much everything. i listened to her on marc marons podcast and was surprised and very interested to learn she grew up in a cult.

you can tell she had a blast with that character. the make up and costumes, putting on the voice. cruella is absolutely awful but she did it with gusto lol.

best performance was on Damages

Glenn always brings it for every role.

Watch "He Loves Me...." with Audrey Tatou. It deals with erotomania and is a good (and fucked up) movie. The first half of the movie is from her point of view, and the second half is from what's really happening and you see how delusional she is and how it effects her, her friends, and the object of her affections.

IA with Glenn... there are thousands of fantastic performances that never even got nominated, much less won.

The only two performances of hers I've seen on this list are The Wife (which was okay, nothing special) and Fatal Attraction, which is not a great movie, but she's very good in it. Guess I need to work on the Glenn Close oeurve.

the big chill is much more about the ensemble than her performance, although she's good in it. it's one of my favorite movies.

I think that's first on the list, bc I know my mom loves that movie and I've somehow never seen it.

Does it count that it’s probably ~miles better than nothing at all when come to having your own credibility and talents to back ya up? It is like being told not sufficient enough with 10000 skillset/certificates/degrees in a job interview you are matched with. It’s weird to be considered that negatively just bc of being 8 time nominated. I don’t think that’s like a bad thing. Like she’s super talented and keep going at it, that’s really cool.

This is kinda weird for me bc it reminded me of the time Leo wanted an Oscar that bad til he got it and all the jokes/memes etc were over. Sorry I downed two Red Bull zero since this morning is super early I feel raw and I’m done gone to somewhere in space lmao
