I would addSenta Berger ,
but hard to decide which of the
excellent 25 she would replace.

I had forgotten about her but, yeah, you're right, quite beautiful. Some of the others who I considered; Martina McBride, Gene Tierney, Hedy Lamarr, Olivia de Havilland, Joan Fontaine, Vivien Leigh, Naomi Watts, Diane Lane, Julianne Moore, Leah Thompson, and Demi Moore (in her 40s not her 20s).

I just added Helena Bonham Carter (circa the late 90s) to make it 26.

When I think of Leah Thompson, I think of that lousy "Caroline in the City" sitcom. And her starring role in one of the most famous box office bombs ever.

But she is redeemed with her fine turns in the BTTF films.
