Rank the Best Actress Winners of the 2010s

I figured now would be a good time to rank all of the Oscar winners in any individual category from this past decade of the 2010s. Here’s how I rank the winners for Best Actress:

1. Frances McDormand-Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
2. Cate Blanchett-Blue Jasmine
3. Natalie Portman-Black Swan
4. Julianne Moore-Still Alice
5. Renée Zellweger-Judy
6. Olivia Colman-The Favourite
7. Jennifer Lawrence-Silver Linings Playbook
8. Meryl Streep-The Iron Lady
9. Brie Larson-Room
10. Emma Stone-La La Land

So what’s your ranking? Even if you haven’t seen all 10 of these winners, feel free to rank the ones you have actually seen.

I genuinely love all of these performances minus Zellweger and I guess Streep? It’s been a minute since I saw Iron Lady. I feel like that performance was praised at the time but now is such a source of ridicule. I need to revisit it before I make a final opinion.

I don’t even know how to rank the other 8. I think I would have Colman at the top, it’s such a tour-de-force and an exciting win. But Blanchett also makes sense up there.

01. Olivia Colman-The Favourite
02. Cate Blanchett-Blue Jasmine
03. Meryl Streep-The Iron Lady
04. Julianne Moore-Still Alice
05. Natalie Portman-Black Swan
06. Brie Larson-Room
07. Frances McDormand-Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
08. Jennifer Lawrence-Silver Linings Playbook
09. Emma Stone-La La Land
10. Renée Zellweger-Judy

1 & 2 are 100% the 2 best of the decade. 7 through 9 can easily be rearranged. 10 is solid forever at dead last.

The Iron Lady as a whole is not a great film. I’m sure any/most ridicule comes from that. Streep gives a great performance IMO, especially when playing the older, retired Thatcher.

I would only give the Oscar to the first 4. All the other could’ve been easily replaced with more accomplished and superior performances.

1. Cate Blanchett

2. Olivia Colman

3. Meryl Streep (didn’t enjoy this performance and thought she should have lost to Viola, but it’s technically well done)

4. Renee Zellweger

5.  Natalie Portman (think this performance is somewhat overrated. She just spends 80% of the movie being timid and uncertain)

6. Jennifer Lawrence

7. Brie Larson

8. Frances McDormand/Emma Stone (neither are bad…Frances is just one note, and Emma’s is kind of cutesy and forgettable)

Didn’t see Still Alice

1-4 I would have for sure given Oscars to. 5-8 I would have given it to them but not in those years as there are performances nominated in those years that I would have given the Oscar to (Margot Robbie in I, Tonya, Saoirse Ronan in Brooklyn, Michelle Williams in My Week with Marilyn (might have still given it to Streep that year) and Charlize Theron in Bombshell).

I would have given Lawrence an Oscar the following year and not for Silver Linings and I wouldn’t have given Stone the Oscar for La La Land hence why she’s always going to be at the bottom of my list (Amy Adams was robbed that year!)
