Karine Vanasse

Karine Vanasse is a bridge-builder I admire. The Quebec-born actress made her name early in French-language cinema, including the searing Polytechnique, then pushed into English-language work with Pan Am, Revenge and Cardinal. Moving fluidly between French and English is a genuinely rare asset in North America, and the fact that she also does dub work tells me she has a fine ear for language and voice. I like performers who refuse to stay penned inside one market and keep widening the territory. Carrying local pride while reaching outward is a forward-leaning attitude I find easy to respect.
