Although I only sort-of-liked Babel, more and more Adriana Barazza is the supporting actress I have been most impressed with this year.There are many unrealistic characteristics to her character, but her compelling portrayl of the accidentally-bad nanny is very compelling.
There's something to be said about a character who although completly flawed (as a result of the screenplay) who ends up being totally believable as a result of her acting.

I agree. Barraza is the only thing that's stayed with me from Babel. I am delighted (and shocked) that she's enduring the lengthy awards run.
ReplyDeletealong with Rinko Kikuchi they both give the best 2 performances of the year... it is hard to appreciate a performance in what many are calling a mess of a movie... but Barraza shows her skills afterall she is an acting teacher, one that has shared here knowledge with so many entertainers from Gael Garcia Bernal to Paz Vega.
ReplyDeletei thought her character was very charming and i def. believed her acting.
