Actually, Scarlett Johansson first made an impression on me, and I'm
sure many others, in the excellent indie pic GHOST WORLD. Check it out
if you haven't seen it already.

I've been enjoying the remake thread going around now and had a
thought
about something similar last night. I was watching JERRY MAGUIRE on
cable and remembered how great and refreshing it was to see a new
actress on the screen when it first came out. Renee Zellwegger was
smart, pretty, sweet, and and a brand new face on the Hollywood
scene.
She held her own with Tom Cruise and really made the movie work in
ways
that another more familiar actress wouldn't have been able to
achieve.
This is one of the few times when a new personality came along
recently
that really "lit up the screen." For those of you who yawn at the
thought of another vehicle with Ben Affleck or Tom Cruise or Charlize
Theron or Julia Roberts or Cameron Diaz -- can you think of other
times
when a new face has come along and really improved a film or the
movie
industry in genneral -- out of the blue?
