Note: Films released during the selected year influence the following year's rankings.

As of the selected ranking year, Barbra Streisand and Meg Ryan form a comparison shaped more by career pattern than by any single credit. The biggest-hit category sharpens the box office contrast, especially because Barbra Streisand's leading film creates the stronger single-release benchmark.

Domestic theatrical output favors Meg Ryan, whose advantage across domestic theatrical releases gives the comparison more long-range context. The comparison therefore points leans toward Meg Ryan, with the most meaningful separation coming from the highlighted career measures.
