Maybe they weren't listed above the credits, maybe they did or didn't get an Oscar nod, but everyone remembers them. Name a few, preferably with descriptions or a good quote:
Paulette Goddard, "The Women": "CHAMPAGNE?" Oh, that smile. Ruth Hussey, "The Philadelphia Story": "Where's my wandering parakeet?" Harvey Keitel, "Pulp Fiction"--for the suit. Lili Taylor "Say Anything"--for the Joe saga (set to music), of course. Sam Rockwell, "Galaxy Quest"--90+ minutes of hysteria. Sigourney Weaver, "Jeffrey"--"It all goes back to mother, doesn't it?...don't lie to me, I'll call her!" Laura Dern, "Dr. T & the Women"--soused for the entire movie, in outfits beyond description. Stockard Channing, "Isn't She Great?"--see above. Kevin Spacey, "L.A. Confidential"--what a death scene. Olivia DeHavilland, "Gone With The Wind"--"Be kind to Captain Butler...he loves you so." Aannnnnnddddd I'm in tears. Ally Sheedy, "The Breakfast Club"--"I'm not a nymphomaniac, I'm a compulsive liar." Madeline Kahn, "What's Up Doc?"--"I am not A Eunice Burns, I am THE Eunice Burns!" Dianne Weist, "Bullets Over Broadway"--"Don't speak!" Sean Astin, "Lord of the Rings"--for being the moral center of the saga. Joan Cusack, "Gross Pointe Blank"--the 3-way phone call. Daryl Hannah, "Steel Magnolias"--"I will not allow personal tragedy to interfere with my ability to do good hair!" Amanda Peet, "The Whole Nine Yards"--a gun and heels, that's it. Whoopi Goldberg, "The Player"--the tampon scene. Carrie Fisher, "When Harry Met Sally": "(She's) thin, pretty, big tits. Your basic nightmare." Emma Thompson, "Impromptu"--for playing a complete, utter nitwit with such energy and verve, you like her anyways. Rutger Hauer, "Blade Runner"--another great death scene. Dennis Hopper, Blue Velvet"--yikes.
