The year: 1999\. The SAG nomination, and the win: *Gia*, the TV movie she made about Gia Carangi. The hair: I'm not totally sure, but as best I can tell, she was probably getting ready to shoot *Gone In 60 Seconds*, and this was the honey-blonde lightening phase where her hair got a quick break before she took it platinum for that movie. (At first I thought it was for *Life or Something Like It*, but that was in 2002, and [also, VERY white-blond, and also possibly a wig](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AGvXs8G9LoU/hqdefault.jpg?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)?) It suits her surprisingly well, I think? Or perhaps I'm just reacting strongly because [we just looked at her Morticia Addams vibe from the 2000 Oscars](https://www.gofugyourself.com/photos/oscars-2000/72nd-annual-academy-awards-deadline-room?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) and *that* was so severe on her. My favorite Angie is always *Mr. and Mrs. Smith* Angie -- the untouchably cool Angie -- but there's a certain approachability to her in this shot. This Angie could have been on *Melrose Place* plotting against Michael Mancini before giving Ashley Judd a run for her money in rom-coms.

For completists, here is the full outfit:

So pinchy, but at least the necklace distracts me from wondering why they designed the top to curl over like the hem of a cheap tee after one bad wash.
