5. Melanie Griffith in Working Girl:
Griffith has some good moments, but she mostly doesn't handle the character very well, and the material drags her down.
4. Signourney Weaver in Gorillas In The Mist: Signourney Weaver delivers an outstanding performance that is sometimes brought down by the flatness of the script, but is very powerful work.
3. Jodie Foster in The Accused:
Foster is completely real and heartbreaking as Sarah, who shouldn't be a likeable person, but Foster is able to put us on her side and she is exceptional all the way.
2. Meryl Streep in A Cry In The Dark:
Meryl Streep gives one of her best performances, always intriguing the audience. Subtle, fascinating work.
1. Glenn Close in Dangerous Liaisons:
Close gives a chilling, brilliantly layered performance which is never overplayed or underplayed. Brilliantly executed.

Just what I expected.
Not my pick, but it's alright :)
Seems like a really strong year! Except Griffith. I'm ashamed to say I haven't seen ANY of these performances, which is really a crime because I love Sigourney, Meryl and Jodie.
Louis: It was hard to decide between Streep and Close, but I decided on Close.
Sage: I hope you like Glenn once you do this year, which I hope you'll do soon!
Robert: It is a really strong one! Stronger then 2002, i think. And start watching!
Close and Streep are quite close here. Is this the strongest year you had for Best Actress nominees?
And what year is next? It's fun. Great write-up.
Yeah! Close is the best!
Malcolm: Thanks! And I think that 2006 was the strongest one I've done, but this is a more interesting year. 1974 is next.
Dinasztie: I knew you would be pleased!
