Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Always Anti-fascist!

But I did enjoy watching people threaten his life, Corwood. Madonn', how did I forget the salami-brain? Probably because I always say "Look, it's Crosetti." Or for that matter, "Was that Giardello?"

Because books.

Okay, two more women (I am blatantly disregarding the rule of three):

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Jane Addams
Lois Smith
Alice Drummond

Addams played the ex-wife in Sideways and has been in a lot of indie films or tiny roles in larger movies. Lois Smith is older and has been in EVERYTHING. She was the wise older woman Tom Cruise visits in Minority Report. Alice Drummond often plays older, slightly batty women.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

What else has Shirley Henderson been in other than the Harry Potter films and the ShakespeaRetold of Taming of the Shrew (in which she was great, btw)?

I was going to add Kelly Macdonald, but she's on the cusp of leading/character actor.
