Cat On A Hot Tin Roof - Apollo

sh*tty Miller

I wouldn't get that excited

What horrible tattoos

🤢

You aren't moonlighting for Tattoo Fixers?

Sienna miller was laughable

In As You Like It

And stiff and rigid in Flare Path

She is simply a poor actress

Inferior to peers like Gemma Arterton and Sheridan Smith

Who do have talent

And a whole generation of real actors like Phoebe Fox Vanessa Kirby Jessica Raine

Why have they cast her?

She is hardly a draw

She is a second rate actress

Factory girl is a film

Her stage appearances have hardly been Yerma Billie Piper worthy

I saw her Sally Bowles

NOT good

I can't see her doing any better here

Remember when the star of “Cabaret” was whoever played the role of Kit Kat Klub chanteuse Sally Bowles? Well, it isn’t this time. It’s Alan Cumming’s Emcee who owns the show — because Sienna Miller’s Sally barely registers.

The New York Times' Ben Brantley began his review saying that he "was rooting" for Sienna Miller, whom he considers to be a "game and gusty kind of gal." But the reviewer concluded that the actress "looks smug at first, then saucy, then distinctly uncomfortable and finally a bit frightened." He added that on paper, Miller wasn't a bad choice for the play's heroine but that ultimately, her "grasp never seems firm" on the role.

Well, let's put it this way - I once saw a 13-year-old girl give a subtler and more captivating performance as Celia in a school play. Limited to roughly two gestures, facial expressions, and tones of voice, wooden Ms Miller has repeatedly to resort to the amateur's tactic - ie, when in doubt, shout and exaggerate.



The Daily Telegraph's Charles Spencer said: 'Sienna Miller is easy on the eye as Rosalind's 'pretty little cousin' Celia, and if she were in a girls' school show, rather than the West End, you would think her well above average.'

Disappointing casting. She was dreadful in Flare Path.

LOVE Sienna Miller. HATE Benedict Andrews.

Dilemma.

I thought Sienna was fine in Flare Path giving a very nuanced performance that was maybe lost on those who don't appreciate subtlety.

There was a great interview recently with Sienna, where she said that her life choices in her 20s impacted her career and she regrets that- it was honest and interesting where she basically said she got carried away having a good time. And who wouldn't have been tempted? on the arm of Jude Law (and after). Personally I'm not letting tabloid stories impact my opinion of her until I've seen her in something. I love Cat...and I'm intrigued to see her.

Predicted this model from the YV ages ago. Celeb driven west end money makers rather than its raison d'etre of accessible, high quality drama in its own home. Lan craves celebrity.
