I didn't mind her in that episode of Miami Vice she was in for 5 minutes as one of Sonny's squeezes. Other than that blah!

My favorite Helena Bonham-Carter role so far is as Helen Schlegel in "Howards End"

A bit cliche, but Marla in Fight Club - she definitely pulled off the accent (or lack of it for U.S.)

[Buck Turgidson]

1. Marla Singer in FIGHT CLUB
2. Kate Croy in THE WINGS OF THE DOVE
(That's one of the most morally ambiguous and challenging roles in all of English literature and she nailed it.)
3. Lucy Honeychurch in A ROOM WITH A VIEW
4. Helen Schlegel in HOWARD'S END
5. Morgan Le Fey in Merlin (I'm so glad I'm not the only one who liked her in that...:cool: )

her roles in FIGHT CLUB and BIG FISH were good

[Antonio]

Anyone see her in LIVE FROM BAGHDAD with Michael Keaton? Any good? I think it's playing on HBO this week and I was wondering if I should tape it...

[rockdude]

Her best performance is in FIGHT CLUB. Marla Singer is amazing!!:D
Her worse... i think it is Ari in PLANET OF THE APES. Just don't buy her as a monkey. lol

Although I totally dug her Ari role, HBC looked more like Janet Jackson than Zira from the original APES flick.
