[Dubrow555]

I'm very surprised that both Isabella Rossellini and Demi Moore are not on this list at this point. Maybe welcomed additions to near the bottom? (or honorable mentions)

[Tim]

Well, prior to Conclave and The Substance repectively, award resumé for both was pretty thin tbh. It probably worth reposting the forum version (at least one I have saved) of this list which included Isabella Rossellini in #301-350 section and Demi Moore in honorable mentions so we can attempt finding a better spot for both.

[ManPerson]

I haven't looked at this list in detail but Isabelle Adjani seems low.

[Tim]

Suggestion for a spot?

[ManPerson]

Maybe right behind Karina.

[Tim]

Done. Also moved Danielle Darrieux, Shadia & Florence Lawrence out of the top 100 as I believe Clara Bow, Annie Girardot, Gong Li and Jean Harlow all have stronger cases for being up there in the top 100.

[ManPerson]

I'd have Nicole Kidman higher, maybe between Rogers and Lange

[Tim]

That's a rather big of a jump. Would you have her over Julia Roberts, among others?

[ManPerson]

I'd say
Acclaim: Kidman close
Popularity/Cultural Recognition: Roberts
Body of Work: Kidman
Influence: neither has much

Feel free to disagree obviously

[Dubrow555]

that makes sense

[Tim]

Ok, I will move Kidman at #45 for now.
