And she is just fab in Homeland.

Ooh yes. I loved her in Stardust!

Earlybird · 04/03/2012 21:08

nope. Don't like her at all. She had an affair with her (married) male co-star, and his marriage broke up because of it.

And my so called life was the best teen drama EVER

MissPenteuth · 04/03/2012 21:09

Earlybird beat me to it. Claire Danes stole Billy Crudup from Mary-Louise Parker, who was 7mo pg at the time.

She's very pretty though, and is excellent in Homeland.

I've loved her ever since, as an angst-ridden teen, I over-identified with her in My So-Called Life.

Lots of hyphens in that previous sentence.

PamPerdbrat · 04/03/2012 21:11

I don't care about her personal life. I love her.

Hmmm, that isn't good. But I'm generally of the opinion that it's the cheater that deserves the opprobrium.

PamPerdbrat · 04/03/2012 21:13

everlong it's homeland, and it's amazing!

wem same here, she didn't break marriage vows. Besides, doesn't make me love her any less

You can't 'steal' someone - the relationship must have been buggered before that.

Earlybird · 04/03/2012 21:15

MissPenteuth - you really have the details to hand (and it is more sordid than I remember).

I have an odd prejudice of not being able to enjoy a person's film/telly work (no matter how skillfully portrayed), if they have proven themselves to be unlikeable and/or morally bankrupt in real life.

That hair doesn't have enough volume for me!! Can't pinpoint it... maybe I read a bad interview with her or summat...

BigGirlInASmallWorld · 04/03/2012 21:54

I love the name Claire.

VivaLeBeaver · 04/03/2012 21:56

My so called life was fab and I'm loving homeland.

I think she looks older than what she is though.

Ozziegirly · 05/03/2012 04:31

She has a lovely smile and seems really fun - the kind of open person who you could have a nice gossipy friendship with. Plus a little bit brittle and not totally perfect. I think she's fab.

GiserableMitt · 05/03/2012 04:38

Much prefer Karine Vanasse meself. Karine Fell in crush with her watching Pan Am. Also her co-star Mike Lowry Mike

SlinkingOutsideInFrocks · 05/03/2012 06:55

Meh, she looks very, very average to me. I'd pass several girls as good looking as her walking down any high street. Confused

Beauty's in the eye 'n all that, I guess...
