So who else is utterly impressed with Sosie Bacon's work the last few weeks (given that it is basically her first significant featured role, ever)? Other than the distraction that she looks much too much like Brenda's daughter instead of her niece

)), her portrayal of the niece is spot-on, IMHO, so natural and believable and compelling, and makes the stiff and unimpressive performance of some of the other supporting characters (Buzz especially) even more jarring.
