I think Andrews' popularity might be stronger than Bardot's, fwiw. Her public image obviously isn't nearly as well defined but her roles in The Sound of Music and Mary Poppins are both more iconic than any of Bardot's.

You reckon Andrews should be atop of this group or rather move Bardot back behind Andrews?

Maybe Bardot should move down as Bancroft should probably get a bit of credit in popularity and maybe even influence for her role in The Graduate.

Wonder if such a large gap between the Bergman girls is justifiable. For what it's worth, I agree with Bibi > Harriet > Ingrid order, but 30 and 80 spots apart? If we talking high profile acting awards they all have 1 BAFTA nomination each, 2 major festivals' Best Actress wins (Cannes and Berlin) for Bibi, 1 (Cannes) for Ingrid, 1 (Venice) for Harriet.

I could see Thulin moving up a bit.

I would also prolly move Bibi out of the top 100, closer to Harriet. Not sure she's well-placed over the likes of Sigourney Weaver, Jean Arthur, Amy Adams, Annie Girardot, Gong Li, Emma Stone, among others.

I guess I can see that, though being the second greatest of Bergman's actresses does a lot for her body of work and acclaim.

Maybe the problem is some of these actresses being too low not Bibi Andersson being too high. Anyway, we shall see during the next update which I plan to do after I finish the top 10 performances for everyone in the top 100.
