Which leading lady would you be?

Jane Eyre opposite a young Laurence Olivier playing Mr Rochester.
Barbara Streisand playing opposite Robert Redford in The Way We Were.
Barbara Streisand playing opposite Nick Nolte in Prince of Tides
I guess Barbara S can have her pick of leading men, so maybe I should just be her.

Meryl Streep in Silkwood.
Julia Roberts in The Pelican Brief.

Wow Framilode - Grace Kelly had affairs with Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby! I have recently watched her in "To Catch a Thief" and she was so beautiful. If I was her I'd of rather have chosen between Steve McQueen and Paul Newman. Frank and Bing would not have stood a chance with me!!

Yes Grace Kelly in High Society having to choose between Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby, both of whom she had had affairs with in real life.

I'd probably be Faye Dunaway in 'Bonnie and Clyde'. A gorgeous leading man and those fabulous cars. I thought the beret look was very cool at the time.

Or Julie Christie in 'Far From the Madding Crowd' with three suitors including the dashing Sergeant Troy (Terence Stamp) and the beautiful Dorset countryside. What more could you want?

Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie.

Julie Andrews as Maria in The Sound of Music - I can see myself striding/prancing about the mountains with adoring children following me (!!) and a handsome man panting after me whilst singing (in tune) beautiful melodies.

SueEllen in Dallas!

Liza Minnelli in Cabaret. The best performance ever. We saw her in Manchester not too many years ago, she sang Maybe This Time and I found I had tears streaming down my face.

Yes! Doris Day in Calamity Jane! My favourite film and my favourite actress. I'd be dead right as Clam!

Doris Day in Calamity Jane or Fran in Strictly Ballroom

Natalie Wood in West Side Story.

Dame Maggie Smith as the dowager in Downton as I love her one- liners but don't envy the corsets.

Grace Kelly in High Society.

Demi Moore in ghost the famous scene with the clay on the wheel with the sexy Patrick swayze

Anything with Hugh Jackman as leading man.

Joanna Lumley as Patsy in Ab Fab the Movie.

But she's always the same. Judy Dench is just Judy Dench no matter what role she's playing.

You beat me to it Harris

Judi dench fabulous actress

Holly Golightly

Debra Winger , playing Paula in Officer and a Gentleman- now I’m going to have lie down.......

I've always admired Sally Fields. Whether going on a silly adventure with the Bandit, or standing up for workers rights in Norma Rae, she is cheerful and spunky, and not over the top glamorous. More relatable to me.

Also love Julie Louis Dreyfuss for the same reasons.

Florence Foster Jenkins for me although Meryl Streep was brilliant in that film.

Oooh I would be Bette Davies in "Whatever happened to Baby Jane"
She was soooo good in that film and I loved her makeup. Cant act for the life of me but this is a role I would relish. What does that say about me I wonder?

Well, I was named after a Shakespearian leading lady, but I’m a bit old to play her now, so perhaps I would be one of the witches in M**be**. I think it would be a great role because it would be impossible to be over the top. Or, Mistress Quickly in “The Merry Wives of Windsor.” I saw Judi Dench playing this role and she was very funny.
