I'm just rewatching The Good Wife: Series 2, Episode 4. It's just reemphasizing how brilliant she is in the show as Nancy Crozier. It's an extraordinarily subtle and nuanced portrayal - I still have NO idea who she is, she is playing the longest game - a bit like Kalinda, but even more ambiguity. Absolutely amazing. She's incredibly engrossing to watch.
What the hell's wrong with expressing yourself?
I completely agree with you! I think she deserves an Emmy for her role as Nancy Crozier.
sharePerfect post -- well-written, totally on target. The *subtlety* of her performance, her complete understanding of who Nancy is without showing us everything -- the layers of Nancy's calculations -- incredible!
"All you need to start an asylum is an empty room and the right kind of people."
Just started watching The Good Wife and I agree about her performance.
I am on season three now and Nancy is still a mystery to me. In her first episode, I thought she was so sweet and a bit innocent. But then it came to me.
"Hey, she's putting on an act for the jury!"
I still haven't figured how much is an act and how much is sincerity.
I loved her subtle dig at Alicia's age in the scene where she says (so sweetly), " I love your jacket. My mom has one just like it."
