She's played a witch, Morticia Addams, and an evil stepmother - it's safe to say she's done a lot in her career so far and deserves to be celebrated for it. Like many other Hollywood icons, Huston has had her success, but of course, there are certain films that have earned rave reviews from their viewers.
