A performance of real control. The quiet moments carry as much weight as the loud ones, and the restraint never reads as distance. By the second act you have stopped watching an actor work and started watching a person decide.
She holds a scene without pushing at it. The camera stays on her longer than the edit needs, and every time it does the moment gets better rather than thinner. That is a rare thing to be able to count on.
Cast her and then get out of her way. She does more with a pause than most do with a monologue.
The kind of performance you only notice is a performance on the second watch.
