After walking into our lives dripping wet as Rachel Green, the runaway bride looking to form a life of her own on Friends, Jennifer Aniston has become one of America’s biggest movie stars. It can be difficult to break out from the small screen, but Jen has played a myriad of roles in different films (almost as many as she’s had hairstyles), arguably becoming the most successful female star to transition from television to the big screen.
With five titles banked for 2014 and beyond, her name is still a go-to for casting directors. But how many of her films have you actually seen? Do you even know what they’re about? (Yes, one was about a dog and probably made you cry.)
