Christina Ricci
I'm a little surprised Charlize didn't drag Christina with her to an oscar nod. Kind of like Hilary Swank and Chloe Sevigny.

shareRicci didn't go all ugly for the part. Whenever a beautiful girl plays a part where their looks go, they win the Oscar.
shareI was surprised how good her acting was in this. Haven't really noticed her much before in other films.
Her character was fictional as to avoid lawsuits from the real Tyria Moore, but even then, I like how they opted to make Selby the shy, contained, soft-spoken one. A great contrast to the assertive Aileen character who tramples through every room and is not hesitant to speak her mind. And yet, they seemed to compliment each other despite their stark differences. Selby's demure, fragile qualities and sensibility gave Aileen purpose, while Aileen's brazenly optimistic approach to life helped the reclusive Selby open up more.
