My Take
Amy Landecker is the kind of actor I gravitate toward: a late-blooming craftsperson whose authority comes from years of unglamorous work. Born in Chicago in 1969 and trained at Wisconsin–Madison, she moved fluidly across stage, television, and film before Transparent's Sarah Pfefferman finally put her on the map. Her supporting turns in A Serious Man and Your Honor show a performer who can ground a scene without grabbing it. That she also directs tells me she understands the whole machine, not just her mark. I value actors who win on texture rather than flash, and she's exactly that.
