Julie Frances Christie (born 14 April 1940) is a British actress. A pop icon of the "swinging London" era of the 1960s, she has won the Academy, Golden Globe, BAFTA, and Screen Actors Guild Awards.
Christie's breakthrough film role was in Billy Liar (1963). In 1966, she won an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in the 1965 film Darling. That same year, she starred as Lara in Doctor Zhivago. In the following years, she starred in Fahrenheit 451 (1966), Far from the Madding Crowd (1967), Petulia (1968), The Go-Between (1971), McCabe & Mrs. Miller (1971; for which she received her second Oscar nomination), Don't Look Now (1973), Shampoo (1975), and Heaven Can Wait (1978).
From the early 1980s, Christie reduced her appearances in mainstream films. She has continued to receive significant critical recognition for her work, including Oscar nominations for the independent films Afterglow (1997) and Away from Her (2006). In 1997, she received the BAFTA Fellowship.

Genres: ,You remind me of
Julie Christie in 'Billy Liar'
You, your milky youth
Wide eyed devotion and pure desire
You are open to all of my suggestions
But you are better for none of my pretensions
They get their way most times
But you'll get your way this time
You cannot stay in this hole
You'll get away this time
Warm with wayward hope
Your kisses breathless, your love divine
You left drama school
For shop floor restless, not by design
You are tired of provincial boutique Sundays
You want the mythical New York and Champs Elysee
Never try to profit
With fortune you can stop it
I'm afraid you will succeed
To find what capitals are cleaner
The grass is so much greener
