Man, you had to go there with Monster.  I can't watch that movie.  It scares the crap outta me.  She was scarily very much transformed into a crazy, country, serial killer. 

"No one in this world is a virgin, the world screws us all!"

I think Chloe is just about the most gorgeous person ever... seeing her butch in "If These Walls..." made me love her even more.

I wish she'd go back to playing awesome roles (like in Party Monster and Boys Don't Cry) instead of being on a tv show. Oh well.

Chloe Sevigny is amazing in If These Walls Could Talk 2.  I wasn't particularly fond of her character the first time I saw it...I'll admit.  However, when I saw it again, she was probably the most endearing character in all three segments, I fell in love. 

Hilary Swanks transformation was neccessary for the film as was Charlize's.  I thought Hilary was the perfect choice to play Brandon Teena...it was definitely the jaw line.  I loved how she put herself on the line to play Brandon before she got the part.  She cut her hair and fought for the role.  That's what I call awesome. 

"Two haunting characters with two contrasting honkers."

I got a good chuckle out of that line too.  Great list Scribe :).

"Normal is not something to aspire to, it's something to get away from."

Julie Andrews is a total chameleon. I actually never saw victor/victoria, bu for the longest time I had no idea that she was mary poppins AND maria from the sound of music (and i love both those movies). its weird b/c those roles seem so similar, but she played them so different. i actually just looked her up right before i posted this just to make sure she actually DID
play both those characters ;)

p.s. am i the only one who thought christina ricci was HAWT in monster?

p.p.s. okay, hes not a woman (-10 points), but i got to give it up to darrell hammond from snl for his awesome impressions. he's crazy amazing at changing it up, and funny too. donald trump was my fav! here's the jeopardy one: http://youtube.com/watch?v=MxUhfHoaP0Y&mode=related&search=

Charlize Theron... the first time I saw her was when she won the award for Monster.  I saw the clip and then her win.  I could _not_ believe that was the same person.  I rarely think the people that win actually deserve the award as it seems to be a mere popularity contest. 

But holy crap...  she completely embodied the characterizations and personality as well as looks.  The scary part for me?  That the story was true.  I know not everything is true and some things were changed.. but the murders and the tragic life.

Hillary Swank's performance is so painful for me.  Not painful as she did a bad job.. but painful in the way on how well she performed.  The emotion in the character... it just hurts to know a person had to go through all that.

What about Terminator 2 Linda Hamilton vs Beauty & The Beast Linda Hamilton?

My absolute favorite transformations of all above is without a doubt Charlize Theron in Monster. I saw her once before in some crappy movie about a gorilla (the gorilla was cute though) and I really didn't think about her that mutch. But when I saw her In moster I was like "holy baloney!" Even though it's supposed to be a "monstrous" transformation, I think she looks beautiful as Aileen.

I hardly recognised her in her role as Bob Dylan!

A woman pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman...

I. Love. That. Movie. It's funny, its feelgood, it has great music (Henry Mancini, 'nuff said), it addresses gender/queer issues, Robert Preston is adorable, Julie Andrews looks FANTASTIC in a tux and breaks glasses with her voice. What more can a girl ask?

@Mizkel: Good call on Cate Blanchett. She looks incredibly different as Bob Dylan. Actually she looks very much like Bob Dylan which is weird 'cause she's hot and Bob, well... isn't (though a great musician and inspiring artist!)

I luv this movie mostly coz I luv Toni and Rachel and ABBA...I mean how could you not luv it with that combination!

Toni Collette was brillaint in this movie

And who doesnt love Julie Andrews? Honestly I dont think it's humanly possible to not luv her.

Marrion: Now, tell me what do you see?
Kel: Two lovers in a passionate embrace
Kath:...Two dead sticks

That made me do a 'Holy Sh*t'

She be pretty!

 Joely Richardson in "Sister My Sister" (1994) is another one for that list..... She looked so different! She had brown hair and brown eyes for the role of Christine Papin (which I actually think suited her very nicely), and although she had to look stressed out and somewhat grim for the character, whenever I look at that movie I am always struck by how naturally beautiful and fresh faced she looked in comparison to her bleached blonde, permatanned Hollywood look now.... It's a really fantastic movie by the way, the best I've seen from Joely!

What about your mother- your mother earth?
