Glen Close politics
You are my favorite actress but that being said you need to stick to being a actress and vote for your choice but keep your vote private
You and all of Hollywood need to be Americans !!!!
You will all suffer with fans if you continue to be political and not actors and actresses
My Favoirte Actress Glenn Close
Genn Close is my favorite modern day actress. In fact, in many ways, her style, versatility, and risk taking reminds me of Barbara Stanwyck's ---both very strong personalities. I especially enjoyed Ms. Close's performance in The House of the Spirits. She may not have had top billing in this movie, but her star shined brighter than all others in this film. Ms. Close is an American Treasure and we are so fortunate to enjoy her many films and artistic endeavors and look forward to her future projects.
