7.  Sarah Silverman-Take This Waltz

She didn’t last long on the show, but it’s to the benefit of the comedy world. After never finding her place on SNL, Silverman made the transition to standup and a recurring role on The Larry Sanders Show. And then movies came calling, with her appearances in School of Rock, Way of the Gun, and St. John of Las Vegas. But one of her most recent film roles, as a recovering alcoholic, hipster, sister-in-law to Michelle Williams in Take This Waltz, is probably her best. Especially as she gives the definitive statement of why we keep making such stupid mistakes in our lives, during one big, pathetic speech towards the film’s end.
