Sadie Sink

I know some people here are mixed on Sadie Sink but I still personally think she has a much higher ceiling on screen than what we’ve seen so far.Having seen her in a bunch of stuff now, her facial expressions and eye acting are some of the best I’ve seen in the younger generation and she can sell a whole beat with just a look.

My main issue is SUBTLETY. She’s had a lot of angsty material but I think she’s better when she pulls things back.When she really lands an emotionally charged scene she’s fantastic.The last 20 minutes of The Whale are still the best example for me once the script let her breathe I thought she stole the show and more of these calmer moments would have given her a supporting nomination.

I also saw her on stage and she’s genuinely excellent on funny, emotionally strong and very commanding.A Tony nomination in leading actress at 24 is huge and I still don’t think she’s had a screen role that shows all of that.

She also just oozes star power. If she keeps improving and gets the right roles I think she has pretty much everything you need to become a big movie star and potentially a serious awards and oscar contender.The marriage plot should be a really interesting test.

Hot take:Conclave deserved far more recognition at the Oscars especially Best Picture

Ralph Fiennes gave one of my favourite monologues ever, just goosebumps:

“Certainty is the great enemy of unity. Certainty is the deadly enemy of tolerance.”

I know it’s early but based on the season so far who looks likely to be in the Olivier conversation for leading and supporting performances in plays?
