Julianne Moore – 10 Best Movies

By Vlad Zakh · June 19, 2026

Still Alice is devastating and controlled, Boogie Nights and Magnolia, from the same few years, are looser and stranger, and May December proves she’s still taking real risks with difficult material. May December has her confronting an actress studying her scandal, The Big Lebowski adds an eccentric avant-garde artist, Kingsman: The Secret Service gives her a lisping drug-lord villain, and Non-Stop is a hijacking mystery alongside Liam Neeson. The Hours, Far from Heaven and The Kids Are All Right round out the list.
