I'm sure she's fine, loved Pride & Prejudice....but come on!  It was a joke. Don't get me wrong, she's really terrific in the movie and will get an Oscar nom. I just wanted to test if one number 1 pick could make the list and raise awareness for the movie. It really deserves it.

Re: WOKJ's 100 Greatest Performances: Live! (revealing top 20!) #11
Robert DeNiro, Taxi Driver (1976)
Again, way higher than what the film got and a more appropriate placement.

Falconetti is da shit. I figured a #1 from me and a #5 from you might be enough to propel her onto the list, but I guess not. Makeshift obviously should've voted.

Re: WOKJ's 100 Greatest Performances: Live! (revealing top 10!) DeNiro's best performance. Also his best movie.

Re: WOKJ's 100 Greatest Performances: Live! (revealing top 10!) I'm kinda expecting Forrest Gump for number one, simply because the only thing that is stronger than my hate for that movie is KJ's hatred of good films.

Re: WOKJ's 100 Greatest Performances: Live! (revealing top 10!) #8
Frances McDormand, Fargo (1996)
Amazingly, accumulated the same number of points as Pacino, and have 7 top 20s to be ahead. 13 votes total is also among the highest.
And yes, she is the highest female.

Daniel Day Lewis, Gangs of New York (2002) The performance was top notch, though! Well-deserved. Now Weaver in Aliens...awesome film, but overrated performance. _________________The greatest thing on earth is to love and to be loved in return!
