Robin Wright In Fantasy Films: Wow, Impressive

The Princess Bride, Beowulf, Wonder Woman: delimiting our examination to Wright’s work in fantasy alone (and ignoring Unbreakable, as I ignore all of M. Night’s doggerel), this chick rocks. Strong, dignified, intelligent, vulnerable, feminine, and, in the end, indomitable, she has been the complete fantasy film female package across decades. She has not always been the leading lady. Angelina Jolie was the lead in Beowulf, and Gal Gadot the lead in Wonder Woman. Jolie went on to star in the Malificent attrocity (where she was simultaneously, at her behest, protagonist and antagonist, which is a lot like being a Hermaphrodite, i.e., impotent and frigid at the same time), and Gadot has only shown us one character, Diana Prince, albeit, admittedly, doing so better than any other DC character other than Christopher Reeve. Wright’s thespian bone fides in a wide variety of roles are documented. I love fantasy, and I want to praise her chops in my favorite genre. Your thoughts?
