What is your favorite Julia Stiles movie? She is personally one of my favorite actresses! She is such a lovely girl and she doesn't get into all that "young hollywood" stuff. Some of her movies are : Save the Last Dance, 10 things I hate about you, O, The omen, Carolina(my favorite), she's in all the bourne movies w/Matt Damon, the prince and me, mona lisa smile and lots more. I guess I'm just interested to know if other people like her too!?

I like Julia Stiles as well. Too bad she seems to have dropped off the radar recently. My favorite movie of hers was "10 Things I Hate About You". She is a great actress. I'd like to see her in more films.

I think she's currently working on a new movie called "the bell jar" but I'm not sure when it will be released. I think she has stopped doing a lot of romantic comedies and is trying to do different things. Thanks for the response!

I like her too. I find her screen presence quite lovely.
I've seen all her movies that you have mentioned except for Omen, but then that is because I don't watch scary movies. I have to admit I've repeatedly watched The Prince and Me, because despite its predictable storyline, I like her character very much. She made her so sympathetic and real.
I've also enjoyed 10 Things I Hate About You and O. I like teenage modern versions loosely based on Shakespeare plays.
Definitely an actress to take notice of.

I just think her presence on screen is something very lovely and serious. I'm not usually a scary movie person either but I watched it just because she was in it! It was pretty good! But it had me closing my eyes at some points!

I haven't seen all her movies but I love 10 Things I Hate About You. There was a movie on the other night with Julia and Freddie Prinze Jr. I didn't watch it because it had already started but maybe I can catch it another time. The Prince and Me was a cute movie, too.
It was so different seeing her play a mom in The Omen. I'm so used to seeing her play younger characters but I guess she's grown up a lot since she first came on the scene.

The movie with Freddie Prinze Jr. is called Down to You ...I believe. It's a cute little romantic comedy.I know it's amazing to see her act like a mother. She also plays a mothering role in A little Piece of Heaven. Very good...very different!

"10 things..." was surprisingly good, a great way to make Shakespeare appealing to a young audience. I know it was just an adaptation, but still, it may get people interested in reading the source of the story.
I'm also a huge fan of the Jason Bourne movies and she was pretty good in them too. Other than that, I didn't really enjoy the rest, even though she's always pretty good. I haven't seen "Carolina" for some reason, it's the first time I hear of it.
But yeah, she's extremely easy on the eyes and a very good actress. I don't know if I'd say I'm a fan, but I definitely like her.

Thank you for the response! I like adaptations of Shakespeare ....but then again I am part of that younger audience! lol Carolina was never out at the theaters but you can rent it. If is a very cute story. There is some romance but it's about families too!

I so agree with you. She is my fav too, and my name is "kim" also! Anyway, i absolutely loved her in 'The 60's'. that is one of my favorite movies. Also in '10 things I hate about you'. I have both movies. She is very intelligent and was attending an ivy league college. She acted to pay her way through. But who needs a career when you have an acting career like hers. If you haven't seen the 60's, you MUST. Used on Amazon, it's like $70.00 dollars though, I bought it several years ago and paid only $6.00.

I really like Julia Stiles too. I've always been impressed with her when I see her in interview. She has done a lot of good work. But I must say one of my favorites of hers is 10 Things I Hate About You. I rolled my yes at the thought of watching such a teen movie with my niece when it came out, but I really, really liked it.

The first Julia movie I liked was "Down to you" She played a very good role in that one and I loved the romance story. It just was so typically nice the way it ended with happyness.
The second movie of hers I liked was 10 things I hate about you.
Have a good night

i love Save The Last Dance. i guess she has more than 1 talent. She can act and dance. Favourite part of the movie was close to the end when she auditioned for some dance school.
it's true that you don't see her in the tabloids, unlike Lindsey Lohan and lots of others.
i guess she's a good role model for young girls.
never watched O or Omen or some of the others you mention.
i love comedies and only watch comedies.
if she stars in any other comedy i'll watch it.

Hmmm....let me think...A Guy Thing is a comedy. You might enjoy that!? And Carolina, which is my favorite Julia movie has some very funny parts! I def. think you should try to rent that sometime!

I saw her onstage in a David Mamet play. You mention all her best. My favorite is The Prince and Me.
