Best movie heroine ever?

[MNDude]

it seems that Hollywood is pushing female's to play the heroic scenes more and more--all the new Star Wars movies, Ghostbusters remake come to mind.

But movie heroines go back to 1930's Dorothy from Wizard of Oz. Who is your favorite female movie hero of all time?
