Sally Kellerman

With all due respect to Loretta Swit, THIS is Hot Lips Houlihan. She embodies a breezy good humor that allowed her to play the comic foil throughout most of her career. Her high profile role in the Rodney Dangerfield comedy Back to School is not included here because it’s just not a good movie, although she’s the best thing in it, walking a tightrope between remaining loyal to the college while keeping her options open in Rodney’s camp.

Ten best roles

10) Slither 9) Foxes 8) The Serial 7) That’s Life 6) Boynton Beach Club 5) Head On 4) The Lay of the Land 3) Open House 2) A Little Romance 1) M*A*S*H*
