Oh, look at her eyes! They're so big! She must be such a good actress!
Semicolon not so much. In Brokeback Mountain, Heath Ledger, Michelle Williams, and Jake Gyllenhaal are all almost unspeakably brilliant. They invest their roles with tons of emotion and ridiculous amounts of subtext. Anne? Uh...she's just kinda there. She is kinda lively at the beginning, but can't really be compared to the other three just for a bit of liveliness. As for the phone conversation scene...some will say genius. I say FLAT. You could tell this was a young (untalented) actress in way over her head, so she probably just thought "uhh...I'm not gonna act at all!!"
In The Devil Wears Prada, you actually root AGAINST Anne because she is so bland, whereas the actors playing alongside her that play "bad" people (Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt) are actually fun, so you cheer for them. Way to ruin the movie, Anne.
In The Princess Diaries and the like she's...yup...bland, but at least she doesn't stand out as mediocre in comparison to brilliance like the performances of Ledger, Williams, Gyllenhaal, and Streep. People are talking about how she's going to get an Oscar nod for Becoming Jane and she probably will (ew), but why are these same people saying she's "owed?" (Ewwwww.) If we're looking for young actresses that have been ripped off in the past, Scarlett Johansson, Claire Danes, and even Kirsten Dunst come to mind before Anne.
