What is the one (or two or three) movie roles of all time that you would have LOVED to have played (assuming, yes, that you were an actor of Oscar calibre).
I would have loved to have played Tom Hank's role in Apollo 13. Heck, to have simulated all that space stuff, the weightlessness, etc. It would have been amazing. Alas, I am a female, thus that might have proved somewhat difficult. I might settle for Debbie Reynold's role in Singin' in the Rain. That girl could tap! And to play opposite Gene Kelly
Honourable mentions: Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz...although, when confronted by the actual reality of being surrounded by all those munchkins, plus people in tin/lion/tree/witch costumes, I don't knowif I'd be able to handle it...Embeth Davidz in Schindler's List. Something about the way she plays out those lines. As small as her part is, it's very moving. Matt Damon's role in Good Will Hunting. Genius. Angst.
Oh, and anything where I might have played against Matthew McConaghey....
