Charlize Theron takes 91st place on a recent list of "
100 Best Spy Movies of All Time". It's the "all time" that got my attention, considering how many spy films there've been (just in my lifetime). Of particular note, the last sentence which states she not only did all her own stunts - something you often hear about actors of either gender - but what is more easly confirmed (I assume) is the amount of training she put it.
This helps me believe her success on FreeCatfights in several stories. (Angelina Jolie's "Salt" was #99, by way of comparison). The list was avaiable on
www.msn.com at the time of this post, if you want to check out your own favorite spies.

The MI6’s most elite spy travels to Berlin, mere days before the fall of the Berlin Wall, to investigate the murder of one of her own and retrieve an important dossier, all while taking down a ring of ruthless double agents. Starring Charlize Theron as the seductive and deadly Lorraine Broughton, the actress
performed all of her own brutal stunts which required two months of five-hour-a-day training.
