just wanna say i think she did a great job in this movie.why don`t we see more of her.

Definitely agree...she really captured the duality of the character...wanting to die yet terrified...even in her first moments at the hospital...shame this won't get a wide release...it really is just too dark for the mainstream!
But I think that's why we don't see more of her...she manages to play the parts that frighten most other actresses...

I don't think she did a good job at all. I'm not saying she doesn't have talent. Buried it is. I don't think she makes a good analysis of her characters. We see her travel on and off character on almost every performance she's given & this wasn't an exception. I do feel sorry for her being caught in these roles that stereotype her into the 'scream queen' kinda actress. She could have potential. She just needs a good coach & most important, a director that shakes her out of her comfort zone as an actress.

I agree. Considering other movies she performed in I was dubious about this one, only to remain totally impressed (not only with her, but with the whole movie).

Why surprised? She played so many great roles. I didn't expect any different from this one.

You should also check out 'The Air I Breathe' - a ludicrously overwrought film, but she gives the best performance of the cast.
