Geena was cruelly robbed of an Oscar for CUTTHROAT ISLAND, too.
Interesting list. Agree with most of it.

Great suggestions, Fred, and of course I'll stand up for Denise Richards in DOOGIE HOWSER, S.S., er, I mean STARSHIP TROOPERS.
Robert Duvall, who singlehandedly makes THX-1138 worthwhile.
Haven't seen NEVER LET ME GO yet...
