For the 60's edition of this rubric, I had to take some time because I did not know the 60's movies as well as the following decades'. And it was a hell of a fun ride! It might sound unfair, but due to my 7 picks only I had to let out names like Shirley MacLaine ( The Apartment , The Children's Hour , Irma la Douce and Gambit ), Julie Christie ( Billy Liar , Darling , Doctor Zhivago and Far from the Madding Crowd ), Catherine Deneuve ( The Umbrellas of Cherbourg , Repulsion and Belle de Jour ) and Anne Bancroft ( The Miracle Worker , The Pumpkin Eater and The Graduate ).

Of course I wasn't even born at the time, but I recall some stories of my parents telling me how much they loved some movies that were released in their teens. And, of course, because of social isolation due to COVID-19 outbreak, I've been able to watch a lot of movies these days! It's not always about delivering the best performance in order to be considered one of the greatest actresses of a decade - it also takes the ability to open a big production movie, to turn a small indie into a box-office hit or work with some of the most prestigious directors/auteurs these days. That's how I made this list: performances + prestige movies + box-office numbers! And we've got our 70's decade's biggest female movie stars:
