Movies
Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003)

Character: The Bride
Reason: her mix of coldness (in planning revenge) and fury (in fighting) are the eternal division between our human rationality and bestial nature.
Aira's rating:

Albert Nobbs (2011)

Character: Albert Nobbs
Reason: it'd be a great challenge trying to give my femininity away and turn my body and gestures into a such neuter character
Elizabeth (1998)

Character: Elizabeth I
Reason: Period movies are fascinating... the costumes, the set. Besides, Elizabeth was an amazing woman, she reigned in a historical time of chaos with an extraordinary will
Aira's rating:

Black Swan (2010)

Character: Nina Sayers
Reason: it's the role of a lifetime. It has everything: craziness, sensuality, competition, obsession. And because it requires a lot of hard discipline
Aira's rating:


Character: Clementine Kruczynski
Character: a little for trying her looks... :) Then for the story and especially for what she means to her man
Aira's rating:

Agora (2009)

Character: Hypatia
Reason: for telling the story of this brilliant woman who paid the price for thinking in an age when women were supposed only to raise children and shut up
Aira's rating:

Moulin Rouge! (2001)

Character: Satine
Reason: to look that gorgeous (ok, Nicole Kidman looks gorgeous on her own...) and to experience the musical genre with dancing, singing and acting at the same time
Aira's rating:

Charlie's Angels (2000)

Character: Dylan Sanders
Reason: because this movie looks so fun to shoot. Girls jump, fight, wear bizarre costumes. I chose Dylan because, among all them, seems to be the funniest

Tv Shows
Game of Thrones (2011)

Character: Cersei Lannister
Reason: I couldn't decide between her and Arya but eventually I chose. Cersei is the baddest badass, the b*tchest b*tch ever. How could a role be more awesome?
Vikings (2013)

Character: Lagertha
Reason: I like strong characters and for ruling in a warriors - in a vikings! - world, you really need to have the guts
Aira's rating:

The X Files (1993)

Character: Dana Scully
Reason: The X Files was the show loved by an entire generation, it's normal for an actress (though hypothetical) willing to be a part of it. And the platonic love between Scully and Mulder was one of the best ever told
