Really sharp work from Rima Saleeby

There is something pretty interesting about how Rima Saleeby fits into The Strangers (2008). It is the kind of performance that quietly makes the movie sturdier. There is a nice lived-in quality to it, nothing too forced. A couple of tiny timing choices really stuck with me. The small reactions do a lot of the heavy lifting. Not the whole movie, obviously, but it helps a lot.
