My Take
Lily Rabe is a performer I quietly champion. A New Yorker and Northwestern graduate, she reincarnates herself every season of American Horror Story with a control that's genuinely unnerving. But what raised her in my estimation was the stage: her Portia in The Merchant of Venice earned a Tony nomination, marking her as a serious theatre artist rather than a screen specialist. She now seems to be moving into directing, and I'm fascinated to see how far she stretches. She's the type who stockpiles intensity beneath a calm surface, then releases it exactly when a scene demands. Genuinely exciting to watch.
