She definitely deserves to be in more.<BR/><BR/>It's hard to pick a favorite performance. I really like in her everything she does, but her roles in Alien(s[3{:Resurrection}]), Ghostbusters, and the Ice Storm come to mind.<BR/><BR/>Every once in awhile HBO or Showtime will pick up the movie Heartbreakers and play it non-stop for a month or so, and I always watch it...every time I see it on. It's embarrassing and cheesy but such a guilty pleasure. Dare I say that Sigourney even shows a lot of range in this role?
