Actress Deficiency

Alright, so with all of the movies coming out these days, I have noticed that there is a serious deficiency in the actresses in Hollywood. Not in the more seasoned sect, but instead in the more introductory stage of their acting career. Under the age of 40, there are very few quality actresses out there. I mean, there are a few that stand out, but the ones that get the leading roles a lot of times get those roles because they are a pretty face. I can name a few. Halle Berry, Nicole Kidman, Charlize Theron, HIlary Swank, and Natalie Portman are really the only ones that come to mind that are quality actresses. Does this mean that we are going to have a weakness in the lead actress field soon? I hope not. It seems there are so many good actors out there who can really take whatever role and run with it, and yet there are not so many actresses who can hang with them. The reason why this comes to mind is in the wake of the Batman Begins storm. Because Christian Bale simply outshined his costar in Katie Holmes. At least the critics aren’t saying that she was great in comparison to others. I believe that they notice the same thing. They realize that she isn’t an amazing actress even if she is getting a ridiculous amount of publicity from her life outside of cinema.
There are some actresses who haven’t had the chance of proving themselves yet. Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, and Kate Hudson are who I think of. Can you think of any actresses who will be able to stand the test? Because I sure can’t think of any more. Post in the comments who you think I didn’t name that are great actresses and not just pretty faces.
