If thatīs your way of saying: talent is not the major
factor, Iīd likely agree.
But I believe, Julia Roberts is from another era and
doesnīt quite belong in this group.
The ideal beauties no longer seem to recruit from 100%
feminine ladies and vamps, but more non-mysterious,
girlish types.
I remember upsetting at least one member this list
about my point of view, but female roles in Hollywood
films are really rarely worth mentioning any more
either because of this fact or maybe itīs the other
way around and Hollywood doesnīt want them.
