My Take
Molly Parker is the kind of fearless actor I quietly cheer for. The Canadian won a Genie in 1997 and first drew real attention playing a necrophiliac medical student in the controversial Kissed, which tells you she's never been interested in safe. From Deadwood to Lost in Space, she keeps choosing roles with knotty interiors. What seals it for me is that she also writes and directs, so she wants to build stories, not just inhabit them. That appetite to sit on the creative side too reads as a deep hunger to express. I'll keep rooting for her hard-nosed, depth-first choices.
