I’ve been ‘disappoint’ with Pinto. She’s been mostly a miss ever since Slumdog. Actually, I don’t recall any “hit” coming from her since then…
@amy, You are very correct, she has been doing sucky stuff. I think this is supposed to be her somewhat “comeback” to the lime light but I doubt it. Tess is such a hard story to get right, I have seen very few actresses that can manage to do a good interpretation.
