TopBilled Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Fagin. The man who taught us all how to pick a pocket or two. Eve Harrington. She was given the Sarah Siddons Award and it didn't matter who she stepped on to get it. Jessica Rabbit. No relation to Eddie Rabbit. At least I don't think so. Lynn Belvedere. He served a mean bowl of oatmeal. Mother Bates. Norman's mummy loved her son and knew he would never harm a fly. Kay Miniver. She overcame adversity and always war such nice hats. Johnny 5. If you don't remember him, then maybe your brain has started to short circuit. Leslie Crosbie. Shot her lover dead. What part of "no, I have a headache tonight" didn't he understand? Catherine Sloper. A hot guy pounding on the door outside, and still she was determined to go up to her bed alone. What a foolish lady! Rhett Butler. Frankly my dear man, Scarlett can survive without you. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
