The best female action performance ever!

Hi everybody!
The WONDER WOMAN cast will be collection of the best performers since the cast of THE GODFATHER. Why? Because we can!
It is no small feat to be the best thing in a movie starring Daniel Day-Lewis and Juliette Binoche; both since deserving Oscar winners. After seeing Lena Olin in THE UNBEARABLE LIGHTNESS OF BEING, you'll be hard-pressed to remember anything else about that movie.
It is a difficult thing to steal a scene from Gary Oldman, let alone an entire movie like ROMEO IS BLEEDING. Oldman completely loses our attention for every minute that Olin is on the screen and never regains our sympathy once she leaves the movie.
Lena Olin gave an essentially feral performance in ROMEO IS BLEEDING, playing an assassin with a fake arm and a sub-zero heart. The ferocious delight she takes in murder goes beyond being unsettling, she simply seems unhinged by the memory of it. It is hard to make crazy believable in the cloying confines of a genre movie, I mean, a steady stream of unapologetic crazy. Heath Ledger came close to it in THE DARK KNIGHT, and received a well-deserved post-mortum Oscar for his Joker. But, my friends, Olin goes much further in ROMEO IS BLEEDING. Olin, here, is all crazy, all of the time, and it is an astonishment. I have seen foreign movies that boast performances which are jaw-droppingly strange, but the heat that rises from the skin of Olin's performance in ROMEO IS BLEEDING transcends mere language.
Olin was once a ballerina, then began acting in Ingmar Berman films. Her lofty pedigree was an invaluable asset in THE UNBEARABLE LIGHTNESS OF BEING, but what she manages in ROMEO IS BLEEDING is another matter, entirely: it cannot be analyzed or explained away. It appears to be an uncalculated performance, but it is in fact the height of discipline to bring such furious life to the screen.
Is it any wonder that Lena Olin is the only woman to play ATHENA in WONDER WOMAN: AT LAST?
Tomorrow, more goodies! Be good!
