Kind of weird actually, allot of people have ranked Liv Ullman as one of their favorite actress but not as many have putted Bibi Andersson on their list. In my opinion they are of equal talent. In Persona for example they are both extraordinary and on the same level of acting, none of them outshines the other.
Here is my list anyway:- Isabelle Huppert
- Bibi Andersson and Liv Ullmand (Yes, they are going to share this place because of Persona and the other Bergmans movies they are in. As I wrote, I think they are of equal talent)
- Isabelle Adjani
- Ingrid Thulin
- Meryl Streep
- Helen Mirren
- Gong Li
- Fanny Ardant
- Ellen Burstyn
- Maggie Smith

I was reading their bio's and noticed that 7 of these 9 women have something in common. Has to do with their births. Interesting. Wonder if there is something to astrology after all? -

In no particular order:
Joan Fontaine
Diana Rigg
Vivien Leigh
Jeanne Moreau
Liv Ullmann
Bibi Andersson
Monica Vitti
Greer Garson
Meryl Streep
Bette Davis
Honorable mentions: Vanessa Redgrave (just have not seen enough of her films) and Kim Novak (imo one of the best single performances, for Vertigo, maybe the best, although imo tied for first with Joan Fontaine in Rebecca and Bibi Andersson in Persona). Another is Kate Winslett, who is probably my favorite current actress.
Others are Myrna Loy, Jessica Lange, Joan Crawford, Maureen OHara, Deborah Kerr, Ingrid Thulin, Sylva Koscina, Catherine Deneuve, Anouk Aimee (for La Dolce Vita and 8&1/2), Emily Watson, Sissy Spacek, Olivia de Havilland, Ingrid Bergman, Eva Marie Saint, Jill Clayburgh, Faye Dunaway, Frances McDormand, Julie Christie, Carole Lombard, Gene Tierney and more recently I am becoming a fan of Jessica Chastain.
