Here is the pretty and talented Juno Temple who I almost keep waiting for her to… break somehow or something. Become a bigger name than she is. Not because it seems inevitable but because she seems to pick interesting roles in interesting movies and she does a pretty good job in them. I was watching Afternoon Delight and I was impressed that it never went the “hooker with a heart of gold” route with her but also it made me realize the amount of range she has shown in movies I have seen her in. Frankly, pragmatic, fatalist sex worker is a huge difference than the mostly innocent she played in Killer Joe. Or just the horrible human being she played in whatever that Jewish Wishing Teapot movie was. Anyway, it feels almost like she has under rated range. I figure part of this is because to the population at large she is unknown, the movies she is in are hardly huge (though seriously, there is a McConaissance going on so you all should at least see Killer Joe for that if nothing else). She also, even when the roles are deeper is still the eye candy in each movie. I don’t mean her role exists only for eye candy but she is clearly the attractive one in whatever movie she is in and I think that really makes people discount her to a degree. Or ignore her work maybe? I don’t know, not everyone ignores it, I have a friend labcoats-glitter-and-sexdreams who loves her, so she has her fans. I mean everyone does, it just struck me that she could use some more appreciation. Plus, as noted, she is very attractive. Anyway, I was watching Afternoon Delight which was… flawed but still enjoyable and now I am thinking about her and today I want to fuck Juno Temple.
