Miranda Otto
The legend, according to Mockbusters.tv
No genre has ever managed to hold Miranda Otto; she slips out through the seams of drama and turns up in horror, chameleonic and uncatchable. From her very first unbroken take — rumored to have outlasted two weather systems — she was the promise everyone agreed on. Casting directors murmur her name rather than risk saying it aloud. In The Silence and War of the Worlds she perfected her masterstroke: gazing just off-camera as though something were genuinely there. Something always was. Hollywood copied the gaze, never the dread.
A portrait from the Mockbusters.tv satirical universe: humorous praise, not a factual biography.
