Laura Linney

The daily poll on IMDb is which Laura Linney performance is your favourite of this deacde. Tragically the biggest vote-getter is the answer that basically says I've no idea who she is.

That's a real shame since she constantly delivers outstanding work. She features on my Movie Years awards 3 times, winning for her terrific turn in You Can Count On Me, which doesn't even make the top 5, as shown here...

I am not that familiar with Linney's work. 1991 (17.7%)
Sarah in Love Actually 1949 (17.4%)
Annabeth Markum in Mystic River 1173 (10.5%)
Joan Berkman in The Squid and the Whale 889 (7.9%)
I don't have an opinion here. 827 (7.4%)

For those that haven't, go rent You Can Count On Me and see not only a terrific film but one of the best female performances of the last 10 years. Stunning.
