Actresses that defined the 80's

[claws]

Vote: young movie actresses born between 1960-1975 that come to mind when thinking about the 80's.

You left out Lori Loughlin, Drew Barymore and Brooke Shields you...you...leaver-outer of totally hot chicks you!   

Anyhow, I went with:

Molly Ringwald - wasn't she in at least half the movies made in the '80s?
Lea Thompson - such a cutie
Phoebe Cates - see above
Deborah Foreman - for Valley Girl and the Waxworks movies
Tawny Kitaen - who cares if she was in any movies, I chose her for that Whitesnake video 

[Rev. Powell]

You also left out Linda Blair, Lana Clarkson and Linnea Quigley... they defined the 80s for me, at least.

I'm all for Tawny because she was in Witchboard, but Molly Ringwald and Daphne Zuniga (The Initiation, YEAH!) define the 80s for me.

[Hammock Rider]

No love for Elizabeth Shue?

[tracy]

Molly Ringwald
Demi Moore
Phoebe Cates
Ally Sheedy
Jami Gertz

In fact,each of these ladies were the epitomy of the decade.....with a mention of Mare Winningham.

I voted for:

Molly Ringwald (who rightfully should win this by a large margin, she's by in far the woman I think of when I think of 80s films)
Jennifer Grey
Daryl Hannah
Lea Thompson
Phoebe Cates

Surprised there was no listing for Melanie Griffith or Sigourney Weaver.

Surprised there was no listing for Melanie Griffith or Sigourney Weaver.

Focus was on the "younger" generation of actresses.
