My Take
Johnny Simmons is the sort of character actor I quietly champion. From Montgomery, Alabama, he turned up as Young Neil in Scott Pilgrim, Chip in Jennifer's Body, and brought delicate work to The Perks of Being a Wallflower. He rarely headlines, yet he keeps subtly altering the temperature of a scene from its edges. I value that interiority over flash. Actors who trust stillness, who let small reactions do the talking, age well on screen. He's one of those names you spot mid-film and suddenly recall a dozen other roles. I hope he keeps getting those quietly textured parts.
