A leggy, auburn brunette who has one of the most mobile and expressive faces of any gorgeous actress of her generation, Amanda Peet is a delightful big-screen presence. Amanda’s oversized, crystalline-clear, blue-green eyes see deep into your secret desires, and her mouth spreads in that wide, wry grin that let’s you know she shares those desires. Peet is so confident in her enduring attraction that she can play the psycho-bitch girlfriend of Saving Silverman (2001) and still she seems like the ideal lifetime companion. A whiz at exuding simultaneous comic and sensual appeal, Amanda causes climaxes and chuckles while pointing a pistol and protruding her nipples in The Whole Nine Yards (2000).

It’s great to see a girl whose model looks don’t get her all hung up on glamour. Peet is knockout splendid inspecting her breasts in a mirror in Igby Goes Down (2002). She is also fantastic doubled over with her skirt pulled up while sitting on a toilet.
