My Perception is a Late Bloomer
There’s a certain category of actress I can think of. They go for years without turning my head and then act one role that makes them irresistible.
A few that spring to mind…
Uma Thurman in Kill Bill
Emma Thompson in Stranger than Fiction
Julia Roberts, patronizing Jude Law in her photo studio in Closer
Meryl Streep in Adaptation, probably because she’s playing a bitchy and jaded New Yorker journalist directed by Spike Jonze.
It probably has something to do with the directors and their ability to capture certain aspects of personality. I’m especially susceptible to Tarantino’s and Jonze’s starlets. Do I actually have a crush on the directors instead?
Apparently I also have a thing for older women.
