hedayorkie:Rooney Mara, CarolAs Therese — an introverted shopgirl in 1952 Manhattan who experiences, through heartbreak, how it feels to truly fall in love — Rooney Mara conveys such a delicate metamorphosis that her performance risks being almost undetectable. The Cannes Film Festival jury felt the swoon, though, handing Mara its Best Actress prize for her role in Carol — which also felt like recognition for director Todd Haynes, who created the vaporously romantic environment in which Therese’s journey of discovery takes place. Not unlike her cool, coiled performance in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (which earned her an Oscar nomination in 2012), Mara’s brilliance lies in her ability to simultaneously portray both vulnerability and tenacity. Her climactic scene, as Therese strides through a crowded restaurant, is not simply spellbinding to watch. For the actress and her character, it feels like a victory lap. —Joe McGovern (x) -- source link
