Untaru, with her chubby face and big eyes, delivers for me the single best bit of acting of 2008

Pace and especially Untaru are mesmerizing in their roles. In reading about The Fall, I’ve discovered that Singh actually tricked Untaru–who was too young to take direction–into delivering much of her performance, filming when she wasn’t aware that the cameras were rolling. This doesn’t make her showing here any less perfect. Untaru, with her chubby face and big eyes, delivers for me the single best bit of acting of 2008. And Pace is nearly her equal! Their funny, quirky, emotional scenes together are unforgettable
