in Black & White: Anna Karina

Anna Karina was a major part of the French New Wave. She rose to stardom as Jean-Luc Godard's golden girl and if you've haven't seen her in Une Femme Est Une Femme (A Woman is a Woman) then head to Netflix and watch it instantly. Had Nylon magazine been around she would have definitely been on the cover. New Wave chic.

in Black & White: Winona Ryder


Winona Ryder was the quirky Oscar-nominated "it girl" of the 90s.

She was in a slew of iconic movies like Heathers, Edward Scissorhands, Little Women and Girl, Interrupted. Ryder was able to hold her own against powerhouse costars like Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Angelina Jolie and did it all with style. Then a certain unnamed event happened that caused her to be the laughing stock of Hollywood and she kind of faded into the background (she was still making movies but not with the same clout). But I'm ready for her to make a big comeback! Aren't you?

Ryder has a few movies slated for 2009 including the highly anticipated Star Trek where she'll be playing Spock's mother. But I'm more excited about her roles in Stay Cool and The Private Lives of Pippa Lee. She plays the romantic lead in Stay Cool and in Pippa she'll be part of an all-star cast (Robin Wright Penn, Alan Arkin and Julianne Moore) that could gain some serious momentum come awards season.

in Black & White: Natalie Portman


There's something about Natalie Portman that exudes old Hollywood charm. But she's got more than charm in her corner, she has solid resume of intriguing roles and a Harvard degree.

Some people have a hard time picking a favorite movie or favorite actress but for me it's simple: Where the Heart Is and Natalie Portman.

Who tops your list?
