My Take
Pyle is the character actor's character actor, and I mean that as the highest praise. Look at the range, from Galaxy Quest to The Artist to Gone Girl, and you realize she can pivot from broad comedy to chilling unease without ever showboating. Her conservatory training at UNCSA shows in how precisely she calibrates a scene; she elevates without stealing it. That restraint is the hardest skill in acting and the least rewarded. I trust any film more the moment her name appears in the credits, because she treats small parts with the seriousness most actors reserve for leads.
