I just rewatched The Fall and god is Gillian amazing as Stella. I also really love her English accent.

Her accent is to die for! I can't explain why I love Stella so much... I really think she's the perfect mix between the kind of women I want in my life (as a friend and/or lover) and the kind of person I aspire to be. I'm not saying she's perfect or anything but she clearly doesn't want to let pass any kind of bullshit and/or double standard and you can feel that she doesn't judge on trivial things... She doesn't seem to let her emotion show but at the same time you can feel them... anyway I think I can. (It's late, I'm tired and I'm not even sure I'm making any sense right now.)

Top 5 Gillian Anderson roles. ;)

1. Stella Gibson (Was hard to choose between her and Scully, Stella intrigue me so much.)

2. Dana Scully (My baby! I will love her for the rest of my life.)

3. Bedelia Du Maurier (My Queen)

4. Lady Deadlock (Do I really have to explain?)

5. Alice Comfort (I was tempt to go with Miss Havisham but straightheads is a really well done movie and I can relate with the characther. But she was marvelous as Miss Havisham and gave me the creep, was hard to choose.)
