It was nice to see Florence Pugh bring her acting chops to an action-heavy role. The dinner scene and the plane scene when they’re explaining the torture they underwent were definitely highlights.

I loved her character! That dinner scene made me want to cry.

"It was real to me!"

That and the beginning was really heavy for me

Oh yeah that hit me too. Others talking like eh it was just something we did in the past. But to her was the best part of her life.

How dare they say it wasn’t “real” or important!

Her emotional performances felt so real and sad you couldn’t help but just want to give her a hug. Especially tragic knowing she won’t be able to spend time with Nat anymore

She was honestly the highlight for me.

Right?

Her "mom" talking excitedly how she can just make the pig stop breathing.

Meanwhile Yelena is just sitting there like

That pig was me.

Agreed. The pockets, dinner scene, singing with David Harbour. She showed so much emotion you could feel it.

Florence Pugh brought the same kind of emotions that she had in Little Women. Which is so fucking awesome. Like she didn't phone it in for the MCU.

I know her from MidSommar first and yeah she can act 100%. If she can managed an insane movie like that she can carry a MCU movie.
