Rose McGowan

What strikes me most about Rose McGowan is how her career refuses to fit a tidy arc. She broke through in edgy indie fare like The Doom Generation, became a household name on Charmed, and then risked everything to become one of Hollywood's most consequential activists. Born in Florence, Italy, she has always seemed slightly apart from the American machine she worked in, and I think that outsider's eye is what gave her the nerve to speak when silence was safer. Whether you admire her or argue with her, she changed the conversation, and I respect that more than any filmography.
