Models in Movies

Shanina Shaik appeared alongside Steve Coogan in Greed earlier this year, although in fairness, a fairly decorative role in a satire of fast fashion billionaires probably wouldn't have been the biggest stretch.

Awfully cool of you to post such an extensive list. :)

 

I've only seen about half a dozen of the films mentioned there so I must confess, I'm not altogether sure of how big some of them were. Who would you say gave the best performances?

Laetitia Casta is great . I loved Amber Valetta too and I liked her in a soap opera "Revenge". My favourite probably was Patricia Velasquez as Anck-Su-Namun in ''The Mummy Returns". :)

A number appear in Nicolas Winding Refn's works with Neon Demon, and Too Old to Die Young as well.

With Neon Demon, having Abbey Lee, Taylor Hill, and Georgia Fowler.
 

And with Too Old to Die Young having Taylor Hill I think a significant enough part in 2 episodes.

Fifth Element is easily in the top ten most quotable films of all time for me, and straight-up one of my favourites.

At one time when my Hubs was sick in bed, I “ambushed” him into watching it with me and we both love it. 

We still quote from it too. 
 

(he says I ambushed him because I brought it home from the video store and didn’t tell him what it was until after I got the movie into the player. :whistle:)

 

(slightly off topic, have y’all seen Leon: the Professional? It’s also a Luc Besson movie)
