No particular order here except Rowlands, Streep and Moore stand as the top three. Tougher to compile than the male list as American actresses have fewer late career opportunities and most of even the very best seem to cap off at only about seven or eight strong film roles at the most. Comments and alternate lists are welcomed!
Gena Rowlands
Meryl Streep
Julianne Moore
Sissy Spacek
Jennifer Jason Leigh
Ellen Burstyn
Tuesday Weld
Michelle Williams
Lili Taylor
Joanne Woodward
Honorable mentions: Jessica Lange, Elisabeth Moss, Viola Davis, Susan Sarandon, Geraldine Chaplin, Barbara Hershey, Alfre Woodard, Jessica Chastain.
