Aileen Wuornos - Monster (2003)

 

Film Synopsis: Shortly after moving to Florida, longtime prostitute Aileen Wuornos (Charlize Theron) meets young and reserved Selby Wall (Christina Ricci) and a romance blossoms. When a john (Lee Tergesen) attempts to brutalize Aileen, she kills him and resolves to give up prostitution. But supporting herself and her new girlfriend through legitimate means proves extremely difficult, and she soon falls back on old ways. More johns die, and Selby can't help but think her new friend is responsible. Rotten Tomatoes states, "Charlize Theron gives a searing, deglamorized performance as real life serial killer Aileen Wuornos in Monster, an intense, disquieting portrait of a profoundly damaged soul." Roger Ebert said Theron's role is "one of the greatest performances in the history of the cinema." Charlize Theron won Best Actress at the Oscars and Golden Globes for this role.

TOM

Charlize's performance of Ailen Wuornos is one of my all time favorite portrayals in this top 20, so I hope it does well!

 

 

ELLIOTT

Quote

Charlize embodied the serial killer so much that it was scary. Amazing performance.

 

 

DEREK

Quote

Is it good acting??? Or prosthetics??? Lol it's both of course. An iconic role for Charlize that cemented her as one of the all-time greats.

 

 

ALEX

Flawless obviously. The movie that made Charlize a superstar.

 

 

CHRIS

Quote

Charlize's transformation is certainly something, and one of my favourite role of hers.

 

 

QK

Quote

Charlize is hot I can't say that I am a huge fan of the movies that she has been in but oh well.

 

 

STEVEN

Quote

I haven't seen Monster, but just based on clips it's clear Charlize delivers a remarkable performance. She's fully committed to the role, and she definitely earned her Best Actress wins for this.

 

 

WALLACE

Quote

Really like Charlize, and remember hearing lots of buzz from this movie. Never saw it though.

You’re rooting for a comic book movie? 😮

I just don't like Marvel & DC studios; I am fine with movies like the TDK which is coming from a broader studio. 

And I mainly did my ranking based on their performance & not on the movie or how much I love the actor or actress.

Also I know Charlize (rightfully) received all the praise she did for Monster, but I hope the make-up artists won something too because:

I don’t think so; I don’t even think they were nominated.

They sure should have. She looks so unrecognizable there. 😮
