9 Notes

In the New York Times review of “Welcome to the Rileys,” in which Stewart plays a teenage prostitute, critic Manohla Dargis said of Stewart’s performance: “She’s an exceptionally appealing screen presence, and she makes Mallory’s confusion — the swings between vulgar braggadocio and clutching vulnerability — reverberant and real.”
It’s precisely that vulnerability, that authenticity, that makes her a compelling actress.
