This is a ranking very curious!
Wrong, on all counts. They have Louise at #6, which is just so wrong. Adjani and Bellucci might be a close 2nd and 3rd, but seriously folks... Bardot, Bassinger and Berry aren't even close. And the results from the fans??? Outrageous. Perhaps it's because the picture they used of Louise, while one of my favorites, isn't the one they should have used in the voting. Tsk tsk tsk... you people don't know what you're missing.
Uh, folks... the list is in ALPHABETICAL order!! C'mon, read the article before you complain about the rankings.
