Serena Sterling has always had a girl-next-door quality with a sharp, intelligent edge. Here, she delivers what might be her most nuanced on-screen performance. Her emotional range in the first ten minutes is remarkable for the medium: she moves from guarded to vulnerable to frustrated to resigned, often within a single close-up.
