"The Big Chill" (1983) In an accomplished ensemble cast, Close was the only performer to land an Oscar nomination as a doctor, wife and mother struggling to come to terms with a close friend's suicide. "The Natural" (1984) Though Robert Redford is the nominal star of this baseball drama, Close has a pivotal role as a woman who inspires his pitcher character to greatness. "Jagged Edge" (1985) A fine Close plays an attorney who doubts the innocence of her newspaper- publisher client (Jeff Bridges), suspected of his wife's murder. "Fatal Attraction" (1987) More than 30 years later, Close's performance as a seductress who makes a married attorney (Michael Douglas) regret – like, really regret – their brief affair still resonates. "Dangerous Liaisons" (1988) Close is effectively chilling as an 18th-century royal who gleefully participates in a wicked game of emotional manipulation. "Immediate Family" (1989) Close and James Woods give lovely performances as a couple getting to know another duo (Mary Stuart Masterson, Kevin Dillon) whose forthcoming child they hope to adopt.

"The Paper" (1994) Close plays the publisher's budget-conscious deputy in director Ron Howard's fine newspaper drama. "101 Dalmatians" (1996) Leave it to a talent as clever as Close to bring Disney villainess Cruella DeVil into the live-action realm so memorably. "Air Force One" (1997) Harrison Ford sees action in the air, but Close is compelling on the ground as the vice president who faces hard choices in tr ying to save her hijacked boss. "Paradise Road" (1997) In this grueling drama, Close plays one of a number of women held prisoner by Japanese forces during World War II. "Cookie's Fortune" (1999) A stage director (Close) tries to cover up the fact that her aunt committed suicide in Robert Altman's comedy-drama. "102 Dalmatians" (2000) Close reprises the role of Cruella DeVil, who launches another plot against the title canines. "Albert Nobbs" (2011) Close does remarkable work as a man who comes to a life-shaking realization while working as a hotel waiter in 19th-century Ireland. "The Wife" (2017) In a strong, Oscar-nominated performance, Close plays the self-sacrificing spouse of a Nobel Peace Prize winner (Jonathan Pryce). "Crooked House" (2017) Close plays one of the suspects in a tycoon's death in "Downton Abbey" mentor Julian Fellowes' adaptation of an Agatha Christie tale.
