The scene itself as-written made sense and was fine imo, I just feel like Johansson didn’t stick the landing. It’s written as a really stagy technically demanding huge chunk of dialogue, and requires her to naturalistically do a lot of these deceptively hard actor-tricks, having stuff pop into her head, getting caught off guard by emotions that are appearing unexpectedly, having it look real while also making sure she’s getting across what is basically exposition, while also getting through this huge mouthful of articulate dialogue. I think she’s really good and but i just didn’t think she was 100% up to it, I could see her grinding her gears & felt like I was just kind of watching an actress really energetically recite a whole bunch of lines. Ymmv though

I don't think it's a 100% "maturalistic" film.

yeah i feel that. like i said, didn't ruin the movie or anything but couldn't help but notice it. Driver's chops as a stage actor really stood out in comparison imo.
Now that I'm thinking about it, realizing that's her biggest scene without Driver - they def elevate each other in their scenes together.
