help me obi-wan Kenobi you’re my only
hope when Beauty meets the bad guy
sparks may fly but not always in a good
way
let her go you know I don’t think I’m
gonna do that
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
movie damsels in distress’ you think I’m
pretty
thank you Peter for this list we’ve
looked at any female character that’s
placed in danger and needs a hero to
save her
however if she doesn’t manage to get
herself saved then she’s disqualified
also it’s live action only so no
animated gals sirens are closed now
she’ll be safe number 10 Nancy Callahan
Sin City oh man dies little girl lives
fairtrade Bruce Willis’s John Hartigan
isn’t the stereotypical guardian angel
but Nancy Callahan
is sure lucky to have him no let me stay
close nothing can happen to me
you played as an adult by Jessica Alba
she owes her life to Hartigan and she
lives it rather exotic way here I was
expecting a skinny little bookworm Alba
is a mixture of cute and cutthroat
nobody see anything
listen closer she has butter wouldn’t
melt eyes and a fiery flipside just
thank after a more than tough childhood
distress is camped upon her doorstep she
grew up she filled out
she’s damsel number ten and he screamed
I know it baby you’re up strong number
nine Debbie
Edwards The Searchers you won’t make a
sound to come back no matter what you
hear promise I Tony the youngest damsel
to make our list
Debbie suffers distress that is cruelly
drawn out after she’s kidnapped by
Comanche Indians as a child the
responsibility for her rescue falls
largely on the shoulders of John Wayne
hey I’m going on alone
any objections he’s a capable cowboy we
all know that but searching for Debbie
is no easy task and it turns into a
five-year mission don’t believe in
surrenders by the time she’s found she’s
a young woman and a whole different
person don’t you remember me Debbie
Irene
you didn’t come
but I’ve come now maybe number eight
Kim Mills taken oh my god me got Amanda
Maggie Grace plays out parental
nightmares in this movie and she sends
Liam Neeson on a Parisian manhunt
him Mills had hoped to be a YouTube
groupie but instead was kidnapped on her
very first night in Europe a 96 hour
wonderful – what – never finding her
from that point on the audience like her
father sees nothing of her the very
definition of youthful vulnerability
where with Neeson whoever you are let
her go or else if you let my daughter go
now that’ll be the end of it I will not
look for you I will not pursue you but
if you don’t I will look for you
I will find you
and I will kill you
number seven Marisol a fistful of
dollars
Gloria not gonna hurt you as the man
with no name Clint Eastwood arrives in
San Miguel and quickly assumes the role
of Marisol protect her all right the
husband finds man in his wife’s bedroom
you’re never sure how he’s gonna react
she’s held hostage by the Rojo brothers
she’s the brunette beauty on the arm of
a gangster until Eastwood hers was the
life of a captive with him there is hope
the second woman from the Wild West to
make our list Marisol is proof that you
should talk to strangers why do you do
this for us why I knew someone like you
once there was no one there to help
I’ll get moving
number six Lois Lane the Superman
franchise easy miss I’ve got you you
you’ve got me who’s got you one of our
more famous damsels Lois Lane has to
manage her distress at super levels
she’s the daily planets pin-up girl whoa
a top journalist and a very attractive
lady
she makes Superman feel almost human
she’s the Man of Steel’s weak spot okay
though getting saved is a regular thing
for her she’s no pushover Shakespeare
said frailty thy name is woman but for
Superman perfection thy name is Lois II
know man
Richard as a pilot takes me up all the
time I like this
number five Wilhemina Willie Scott
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom you
could kill chasing after your damn
fortune of glory
baby
not today when you’re stuck inside a
Temple of Doom perhaps distress doesn’t
quite cut it
whatever level of dismay this damsel
felt however it might partially have
been worth it for this top 5 position
Kate Capshaw as the all-singing
all-dancing Wilhemina Scott has an
attitude for show business and an
aptitude for sticky situation where’s my
gosh spoiled but strong this lady is
always up for an adventure
and while Indy may be her hero the
directors her desire Capshaw married
Steven Spielberg seven years after this
film was released for Princess Leia
Organa Star Wars the original trilogy
too short for a stormtrooper she’s
certainly a damsel and at times she’s in
distress but there’s more to our next
character than sex appeal and scary
situations how are you doing somebody
has to save our skins Princess Leia is
part Jedi part revolutionary part sister
and mother a princess of Alderaan an
Imperial Senate member and a rebel spy
she’s an intergalactic girl who can
really bring it home
however even the strongest ladies are in
need of assistance
sometimes Oh especially when enslaved
and practically D clothed by Jabba the
Hutt and Luke and Han are her heroes on
call get off that way looks like you
managed to cut off our only escape route
maybe you’d like it back in yourself
your highness
despite Humperdinck reassurance that she
would grow to love them they’ll meet
Joyce she found was in the daily ride
number three
princess Buttercup the Princess Bride
there is nothing nearby not for miles
then there will be no one to hear you
scream this fairy tale female has let
down her golden hair and climbed onto
our podium in that case I challenge you
to a battle of wits for the princess to
the death I accept a lady of esteemed
heritage she finds herself in a royal
mix up as her dream of a wedding to the
charming Wesley is hijacked leaving her
with the ghastly Prince Humperdinck it
would have killed Wesley if I hadn’t
done it Buttercup is the blond beauty
straight out of a storybook she’s wanted
by all men but cherished by only one
told you
despite her glowing features though she
is but third in line to our throne
doesn’t matter
Wesley will come for me anyway you’re a
silly girl we are who we choose to be
ah-choo
number two Mary Jane Watson the
spider-man franchise your friendly
neighborhood spider-man is a little more
than friendly with one neighbor in
particular you have a knack for getting
in trouble he’ll have a knack for saving
my life as Peter Parker he can’t stop
thinking about her as Spidey
he can’t stop saving her Kristen Dunst
is MJ the soft-spoken clean-cut darling
of New York her character is timeless
she’s often found defenseless she’s
practically faultless don’t make me look
ugly plus she’s just the right level of
oblivious to keep the webslinger secret
safe
for now he saved my life twice and I’ve
never even seen his face you don’t
really need spidey senses this lady
leaves everyone tingling I think I have
a superhero stalker I was in the
neighborhood before we rescue our top
pick here are a few honorable mentions
we’re all
number one and Darrow King Kong
played by frere in the original and
Naomi Watts in the 2005 remake and arrow
is our undisputed damsel in distress in
desperate need of work this actress
travels to the far-off skull island for
a dangerous film shoot with the promise
of adventure nervous no why should I be
things don’t go as planned when the
natives capture her as a sacrifice to
the mysterious Kong and what ensues is a
legendary story about love loss and
loneliness as pure and pretty as it
seems possible to be and Darrow is just
too beautiful even for the Beast
