From Doctor Zhivago to Don't Look Now to Away from Her, this is Collider's ranking of Julie Christie's greatest movies.
Julie Christie is among the most famous British actresses of all time, having made her feature film debut more than 60 years ago and becoming one of the biggest stars of the 1960s and 70s. She won an Academy Award when she was just 25 years old, and continued to receive Oscar nominations throughout her career, with one nomination each for the 1970s, 1990s, and the 2000s.
She plays the barmaid of The Three Broomsticks pub, and at one point in the movie, is responsible for hosting a meeting at said location for some more important characters. It's arguably just a cameo, but it's still a good movie, and Christie is technically in it, so it deserves at least a brief mention.
Darling was daring for the standards of 1965, centering on a young woman who has quite a flippant attitude to life, and spends much of the film bouncing between different older men, and often toying with them. It's unlikely to shock modern-day viewers, but it still holds up quite well and the acting's strong, with both Christie and co-star Dirk Bogarde proving to be very magnetic.
6 'Billy Liar' John Schlesinger directed Julie Christie to her Oscar win in 1965, but the first collaboration between the two was back in 1963, with Billy Liar. Interestingly, it has a similar premise to Darling, but in this one, it's a young man who's the main character, and he's shown to be juggling relationships with several different women, one of whom is played by Christie.
The titular character finds himself torn between two women, with one of them being Julie Christie's character, Lara. It's a somewhat slow-paced epic, and you certainly can feel its length, but it's remarkably well constructed from a technical perspective and quite the experience to soak up and get lost in, making it understandably regarded as a classic of its decade.
