I was just scanning youtube and picked up on the scene where Julianne Moore goes into the pharmacy to pick up her tranquilisers. She is an actress who seems to be underrated in my view. In a film packed wall to wall with undeniable acting talent Robards, Hoffman, Macy (I deliberately exclude Cruise although he played the role very well)this scene stands out for me. Of course its a fairly momentous effort all round the way it builds menacingly to a conclusion but that scene really stands out for me.
I saw her recently in Far from Heaven and it reaffirmed my opinion. She really is a top talent.
Anyone recommend any more of hers?
