*edit* - Changed the title of the thread to make 20 top films (not just acting of Nicole's, but taking into consideration each Nicole film as a whole) Given the terrific 'Top 20' Nicole performances poll we had (thanks Mr Dedlock and todiefor!), it would be interesting to see what 20 projects you think are Nicole's greatest. This will be a bit different to the Nicole performances, because all other factors will apply here (other actors, direction, production, cinematography etc.) ^ Dogville The Hours To Die For The Others Eyes Wide Shut Moulin Rouge Big Little Lies Lion Rabbit Hole Birthday Girl Destroyer Killing of a Sacred Deer Paddington Birth Dead Calm The Interpreter Cold Mountain Margot At The Wedding The Invasion (sue me, I've always liked it...) Aquaman

I just realised I must have accidentally deleted mine when editing the original post, which is frustrating, because I thought so long and hard about it haha! I'll be back momentarily with mine...

Okay, here it is...! 1. The Hours 2. Birth 3. Rabbit Hole 4. Moulin Rouge! 5. Australia 6. Big Little Lies* 7. Stoker 8. Dogville 9. Paddington 10. Destroyer 11. Bewitched 12. The Others 13. To Die For 14. Dead Calm 15. How To Talk To Girls At Parties 16. Margot At The Wedding 17. The Killing Of A Sacred Deer 18. Lion 19. The Invasion 20. Eyes Wide Shut 21. Boy Erased* *If we end up not counting Big Little Lies because of it being a TV show, then all movies after it move up one spot, and Boy Erased goes into #20 So many films I love didn't make the cut! The Paperboy, Grace Of Monaco (I know, I'm like the only one who loves it), The Beguiled, Aquaman, Cold Mountain....! And I know I may just be the only one who has Bewitched in my top 20, let alone so high in it - but I don't care, that film brings me pure joy! It's silly cuteness!

Here goes! I've put a lot of thought into this over the years lol.
1. Moulin Rouge! 2. The Hours (Big Little Lies - season one only) 3. Birth 4. The Killing of a Sacred Deer 5. Dogville 6. Stoker 7. Eyes Wide Shut 8. The Others 9. To Die For 10. Rabbit Hole 11. Cold Mountain 12. Lion 13. Destroyer 14. The Portrait of a Lady (Top of the Lake: China Girl) 15. Practical Magic 16. Flirting 17. Margot at the Wedding 18. Paddington 19. Fur 20. Boy Erased
For me, the top 8 are 5 star films, which is pretty incredible. 9-16 are 4.5 stars, and 17-20 are 4 stars. I don't think there's any other actor for me who has that many fantastic-to-masterpiece films. That's why it's so easy for me to be such a fan of Nicole. Not only is she a great actress, but I love her choices in terms of the films she chooses to make, and who with.

Ok I thought long and hard going around in circles, its easier to rank performances more than the film itself. So I decided on some key indicators that’ll help me narrow down the list of films/ shows. One of them is I must have purchased the film on Bluray/dvd, another is I must have watched it more than twice etc.
Anyways here is my Nicole kidman film list
1. Birth
2. The Others
3. The Hours
4. Margot at the wedding
5. To Die For
6. Stoker
7. Destroyer
8. Eyes Wide Shut
9. Dogville
10. Practical Magic
11. Dead Calm
12. Moulin Rouge!
13. Hilton Bangkok
14. Lion
15. Rabbit Hole
16. The Paperboy
17. Hemmingway and Gellhorn
18. Cold Mountain
19. Flirting
20. KOASD
So far I think we're at 7 entries, we'll need some more to build a consensus.

Probably goes something like this: 1. Moulin Rouge! 2. Big Little Lies (S1, I'm pretending S2 doesn't exist) 3. Dogville 4. The Hours 5. Lion 6. The Others 7. Eyes Wide Shut 8. To Die For 9. The Undoing 10. Paddington _______________________ 11. Rabbit Hole 12. Cold Mountain 13. Margot at the Wedding 14. Destroyer 15. The Family Fang 16. The Paperboy 17. Bombshell 18. The Golden Compass 19. Australia 20. The Killing of a Sacred Deer
