They didn't get top billing, but these supporting ladies still played crucial roles. Join MsMojo as we count down our picks for the Top 10 Supporting Female Characters in Drama Films.
For this list, we're focusing specifically on female characters that played a pivotal role in dramatic productions, but didn't quite guide the narrative like Queen Eleanor did in “The Lion in Winter” – in other words, if they're basically leads or co-stars, they won't be on the list. We're also excluding mean-spirited characters, such as Mary Lee Johnston from “Precious.”
