[QUOTE="Jimmy Todd, post: 328907, member: 3926"] Madonna was good in Desperately Seeking Susan, but I don't if there was a lot of actual acting there. It's really Roseanna Arquette's movie, acting wise. Madonna's fun, though. Regarding Dolly as an actress, I thought she was very good in Steel Magnolias and 9 to 5. The other other movie I've seen her in was Straight Talk, which wasn't great, but not terrible. I bet Dolly could shine in the acting department, but her big personality and presence might get in the way, if that makes any sense. I'm not knocking her at all. I think she's awesome and an American treasure. She's a pleasure to watch in everything. If I was an interviewer I'd ask her how she navigates the "Dolly" persona and true acting in which she's not playing a character similar to herself. By the way, has she ever played a role completely different from her persona? [/QUOTE]
