My Take
Deborah Kara Unger is a connoisseur's actress, and I'm firmly in her corner. She brought an icy, enigmatic sensuality to films like Cronenberg's Crash and Fincher's The Game that few performers could match. What fascinates me is the contrast: a University of British Columbia graduate with obvious intelligence who gravitates toward roles steeped in danger and mystery. She was never an awards-circuit fixture, but the directors who matter kept casting her, and that's the truest endorsement. Even in Silent Hill she left a haunting impression. I'll keep championing her quietly, the way she seems to prefer working herself.
