Jeremy Davies

What draws me to Jeremy Davies is his gift for fragility. Most actors reach for strength; he reaches for the trembling, the hesitation, the small human cracks, and that is exactly why his stuttering interpreter in Saving Private Ryan still haunts me decades later. As Daniel Faraday on Lost he made fevered intelligence feel tender and doomed at once. He rarely headlines, but he changes the temperature of every scene he enters. That Emmy was earned. For my money, a quiet character actor like him is worth a dozen louder leads, and I always perk up when his name appears in a cast list.
