Gillian left Hollywood at the height of X fame to move to England ,missing opportunities and film makers still wanted to stereotype her as Scully. I respect her tremendously! She has since proven very versatile & her career is more successfully than ever, with years to come. I like Them both, & look forward to more career highs.

The funniest thing about this is that not only did Gillian Anderson as Scully in The X-Files say that if she could be anyone, she would be Eleanor Roosevelt, but Keifer Sutherland in Designated Survivor as his character Tom Kirkman said that his favorite President was Franklin Roosevelt, and now the both of them are playing those two people in The First Lady. It's like it was meant to be or something.

I still have and wear my original X-files T-shirt from the 90's.

The purpose of icing on cakes is to preserve the cake, for consumption up to two weeks after baking. This was one strategy to manage food and cooking, from a time before refrigeration.

I live for the fact that Scully wanted to be Eleonor Roosevelt for one day and now Gillian actually portraits her!

Gillian embodies conssumate performer with a similar method to me as Toni Collette who are complete chameleons that work I'm sure so tirelessly to create characters that are fully realized and nuanced with ease that seems to capture you such as silk sliding over your skin and hitting all the right places with each performance...She is the standout in First Ladies though I am also giving my dues to Miss Pheiffer as well (no disrespect to Viola as well), she is able to master accents and mannerisms as if it seeps from her soul! I highly recommend checking out her performance as Margo Channing in the stage production of All About Eve as it is simply remarkable and gives such honor to the film in my eyes...anyways she is SUBLIME in her technique!!

As a 15-year-old boy in 1996 I thought Gillian Anderson was without a doubt the most extraordinarily Beautiful Woman in the entire world until I met my soon to be wife of 18 years in 1997...Which Oddly looked Eerily similar to Gillian Anderson.... But never told my wife that...🤫

What an amazing person and human being.

And that on next May the 19th, 2022, the ninth season of the show will be celebrating 20 years of its closure? Wooow! It's amazing how fast time passes, dude! I hope Disney (who now owns the rigths of back then 20th Century Fox's "The X-Files"), makes a proper homage to this extrordinary TV show that has trascended generations and is still being watched over and over again, now on Star+ plataform. Say, Disney... Have you anything in mind to positively surprise all the die-hard X-Files fans, at least on Septemeber of the upcoming year? Well, you should... Best regards from Mexico City.

Gillian is essentially the coolest woman on earth. The end.
