Melanie Griffith
Lee-lee Sobieski
Lili Taylor
Edward Norton
Vincent Gallo

Casey Affleck

l'm also going to give an honorable mention to Emma Thompson, since so many people have named her, and she's really incredible, but one person I never expected to see on anybody's list. (The real reason I didn't pout her on my list is because I wanted to come up with my own, and not be influenced by anybody else's---and I didn't think of her.)
