My Take
Paula Patton first registered for me in Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol, but she is far more than a glamorous presence. A Los Angeles native and USC graduate, she brings real backbone to weightier work like Precious, and balances polish with grit across Warcraft and 2 Guns. Honestly, I think she deserves more leading roles than she gets; she has a wide range of expression that the beautiful actress label tends to flatten. There is a grounded, hard-earned credibility to her, the kind that comes from working her way up steadily. I am rooting for a bigger second act.
