OK a tough one, What is Laura Linney's signature role?

Posted by amoxy (aka amoxy) Jun 16 '17, 11:04

Cathy - The Big C
Sarah - Love Actually
Mary Ann Singleton - Tales of the City (TV)
Meryl - The Truman Show\
Karen - Congo
Janet - Primal Fear
Sammy - You can count on me
Joan - The Squid and the Whale
Abigail Adams - John Adams

I am going to go with Mary Ann. Loved that series and she was perfect in the role

She is a favorite for me and she has been nominated for 3 oscars but nothing stands out to me (www.imdb.com)

- I'm not sure that anyone outside this board has seen that movie. -- nm - ty97 Jun 16, 11:27
- Yes. -- nm - Callisto Buffalomeat Jun 16, 11:24
Kinsey -- nm - Flavorize Jun 16, 11:10 1
- Heheh. This also is a good answer. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 16, 11:10
I associate her with Primal Fear in my mind. -- nm - groiny Jun 16, 11:07
For me, it's Absolute Power. That's the first time I noticed her. - David Jun 16, 11:07 5
- yeah--that was terrific -- nm - Flavorize Jun 16, 11:17
- First time I noticed was "Dave". It was a small part, but she played it great -- nm - amoxy Jun 16, 11:09 3
  - She was the best part of "Congo"--I noticed her before walking out 3/4 through -- nm - Flavorize Jun 16, 11:14 2
    - The movie did suck, but the book was fantastic. Would love to see a remake -- nm - amoxy Jun 16, 11:35
    - *throws an eyeball at you* -- nm - Beryllium Jun 16, 11:17
I think it's Love Actually, followed by The Big C. -- nm - Andie Jun 16, 11:06 1
- I think Love Actually is what she'll be ultimately remembered for, as it's shown yearly (aka the Jimmy Stewart curse) -- nm - Flavorize Jun 16, 11:15
I say Truman Show, but only because her character's story in Love Actually was painful. - Beryllium Jun 16, 11:05 4
- but i think LA is where the average person would first recognize her from. -- nm - Andie Jun 16, 11:06 2
  - I mostly agree, I'm just saying that's not necessarily a positive association. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 16, 11:09 1
    - Same goes for that f***ing ringtone. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 16, 11:09
- *ding* -- nm - Spawn Jun 16, 11:06
Meryl -- nm - Spawn Jun 16, 11:05
