So, before writing this review, I though I should clarify that I didn't watch much of the 90's movies. So you won't find actresses like Meryl Streep, Audrey Hepburn, Jodie Foster etc. in my list. Frankly speaking, I didn't watch their movies because most of them made movies before I was born.
And here goes my list :
(1) Kate Winslet : Kate Winslet is one of the most beautiful actresses of Hollywood and occasional singer. She was the youngest person to accrue six Academy Award nominations, and
won the Academy Award for Best Actress for The Reader in 2008. She has earned a total of six Academy Award nominations, nine Golden Globe nominations, and seven BAFTA nominations.
