One of my two or three favorite actresses. The "problem" is that she is such a chameleon, you could see her, and not realize you are seeing her. I have seen her following films:

(1) Muriel's Wedding
(2) Emma (though it has been so long since I have seen this, I cannot recall the details)
(3) Clockwatchers - very good film, better than Office Space, in my opinion. She is very good, playing a Muriel type charachter, without the weight.
(4) The Sixth Sense - watch carefully, you may miss her.
(5) Changing Lanes - with Affleck and Samuel Jackson.
(6) About A Boy
(7) The Hours - a relatively minor role
(8) Japanese Story - Wonderful performance, and film
(9) Connie and Carla - her only clunker. She is entitled to one.
