My Take
Tao Tsuchiya is one of those performers who acts with her whole body, and her training at the Japan Women's College of Physical Education explains a lot. That athletic, dance-rooted physicality gives her work a rare conviction, whether she's straining through Tori Girl or breaking hearts in The 8-Year Engagement. Alice in Borderland pushed her into global view, and deservedly so. What I keep returning to is her sheer earnestness: at 155 cm she packs an outsized vitality into every role, never coasting on charm alone. I find that wholehearted commitment genuinely moving, and it makes me trust whatever project she signs onto.
