16) Meryl Streep (The Bridges of Madison County, 1995)

Meryl Streep gave Francesca Johnson a profound sense of depth and realism. She portrayed the inner turmoil of a woman torn between duty and desire with subtlety and grace. Streep’s ability to capture Francesca’s quiet longing and her love for Robert Kincaid made every scene feel deeply personal. She transformed a simple love story into an exploration of choices and regrets.
