The Best and Worst Best Actress Awards

As the year ends there's much talk of Oscars in the air - so what better time to run an Oscar-related survey?This year Edward Copeland is running a survey asking readers for their views of the 5 best Best Actress winners and the 5 worst Best Actress winners. Submit answers if you feel like it, or just click on the link to see who's won over the past several decades and consider the questions. Looking at that list of winners over the last several decades I thought it was interesting to see (to my eyes) so few dogs in the bunch. Yeah I could pick out a couple of awful performaces, but not many - and trying to narrow a list of the best of the best down to 5 is damn difficult as a lot of women have won for what really have been remarkably fine performances. I knock the Oscars a lot, and with good reason, but at least in the actress category they've gotten it right a fair number of times - though they've disappointed me (greatly) at times during the last decade.

So I ask you Bloodless Coup readers - which winning performances would you rate the best or the worst?
