Melissa Itwar never quite convinces
3/10 · Costume & Make-Up
Looking just at Melissa Itwar's work as Assistant Makeup Artist, there is a clear point of view in the performance. The performance is functional, but it does not leave much after the scene ends. I wanted more specificity, especially in the emotional transitions. The work never fully settles into the rhythm of the movie. It is not a careless performance, but it feels under-shaped. Several choices feel too broad for what the scene seems to require. Different viewers may value it more, but for me the effect was limited.
