That was one mindblowing performance... Especially from a nine year old. I'm not even judging this by child actor standards. That was an incredible performance.

Hail to the king, baby.

I agree 100%. She carried the movie on her shoulders and did an absolutely beautiful job, the only child actor performance I can compare it with is Christian Bale in Empire of the Sun.

That's a great one. The only newer child performance I would say is on par is Jared Breeze in The Boy (2015).

I don't feel enough for you to cry.

Oh well.
