Amazing Performance by Tilda Cobham-Hervey as Melinda
The way she played the character was brilliant. Kept me wondering--What's Melinda's backstory? What happened to this woman to make her like this? I like that the film doesn't fill in all the blanks and instead leaves it up to the viewers' imagination.
Mike Gan wrote a fascinating character, but Hervey really took it to another level. Looking forward to seeing future work from both of them.
Sidenote: If you want an uncomfortable double feature, watch Burn and Compliance (outstanding performance by Dreama Walker).
