Why is she suddenly getting a lot of roles recently?
She ruins every single film with her appalling overacting.
She's nothing to look like either. Just looks like a typical woman early 50s, middle aged. Nothing special.
I don't get it.
Olivia Williams is a classy Brit actress in her Forties and looking good with it. User gustobrunt maybe should see with better eyes.
What's so great about you?
shareShe is easy on the eyes. You don't see that?
shareNothing!
If you saw her in Maps To The Stars it would be obvious her (over)acting is terrible. Not a fan.
shareGod forbid she doesn't have so much plastic surgery to try to stay looking 25 that she ends up looking like a caricature like many actresses. I'm sure you're a 10.
shareGustobrunt, she's a fine actress, and happens to be beautiful.
You're a complete idiot. You're probably a dog yourself, and feel empowered sitting behind your keyboard calling great-looking people ugly.
....absolutely, a genius actress,
she's in a class of Meryl Sreep, Maggie Smith, Vanessa Redgrave...........Beautiful, talented when young and a VERY LONG career ahead...........perfect delivery of a line. Could/ can watch her play a scene over and over.
It is a testament to Olivia’s takent that a nimrod who CHOOSES to name himself Whitey Peckerwood thinks she can’t act!
She inhabits her roles. She does not play herself. She can play an intelligent character, which means that she has a brain, which endears her to me, because dummies cannot “sell” an intelligent character no matter what dialogue is given them. She rises above crap like Seventh Son and KILLS in class material like Hannah and Counterpart. She’s the kind of actress where I found myself saying, “Oh, that’s her. I remember her. She’s good!” until I now have her name on my neumonic speed-dial.
That is what’s so great about her. I suspect that the list of things the OP “doesn’t get” fills the Library of Congress.
I also suspect that those who accuse her of “overacting” have a personal problem with emotion, hence, gravitate to Marvel comic book movies.
