Certainly at the least good in everything but to my mind not great in everything. 'How I Live Now' for example was such a bad film I doubt anyone could have been great in it.
The Players of The Game are the scum of the earth. -

I thought KM did a decent job with the source material, but he was somewhat undermined by a tiny budget that resulted in the film feeling underpopulated. Saoirse was for most of the film very unlikable, but there were some great reaction shots where she displayed raw and real emotions. In addition, I felt she transformed her character in a drastic way with the very brief ending of the film.

It's like they told her to just be devoid of emotions completely which just doesn't work for film characters, especially not someone as expressive as Saoirse. The only scenes I liked in that movie were in the jail.

I need to watch it again. The woman who wrote and directed it is talented but really laid an egg with her first feature film. Saoirse was required to do an exceptionally internalized performance. What can I say?

Good quality. -

Simply judging from the stills we've seen to date, it looks to be an exhausting grind with just one day off and two shows twice a week.
BTW, when are you seeing it again? I'll be curious about how much has changed performance-wise from the initial viewing. -

Nice. It's from the June Vogue, where it's a two-page photo that looks like this:

Vogue was bad in not identifying the woman on the far left. No idea who she is but she doesn't look like either of the two people she could possibly be in the production. -

EHNNGH! Thank you for playing.
Sorry, You are both wrong! Her first scene is walking into the kitchen with her dad and they are both wearing toy springy-eyeball glasses. Her second scene is the Barbie scene with her mother. Her third scene is the car scene.
I just watched the whole movie again to be sure. Lovely little film. -

Although she was so young, it's a reminder that Saoirse could be really excellent should she have a chance to do a straight comedy someday. TGBH was sort of a special case. In addition, she didn't have much screen time.

I'm definitely looking forward to Lady Bird. I feel it has a chance to be a quality film partly because it's a project that Gerwig probably has been very eager to do for some time now. Personal stories can be very powerful.
