I have a huge, huge actor crush on Amy Adams. It's huge. And yeah, I'm not alone. I would beg, borrow, and steal every single — I told you it was creepy — character she created. But the thing is, Amy's screen presence is so utterly unique, her work is so seamless, that it's impossible to pick it apart, let alone try to imitate it. Her performances are seemingly effortless, but put the characters she's played in the hands of a lesser actor, someone less generous, less skilled, less Amy, and the gossamer-fine membrane that it takes to put a character on a screen would just disintegrate. It would turn to dust.
