'The Big Cheese'
Based on 1 reviews of 1 performances
Jeremy Allen White is a sharp young cheddar that has been kept under serious heat. The pressure shows, and that is precisely the point. In The Bear, Carmy runs a sandwich kitchen like a bomb disposal unit, and White plays the stress through his jaw, his shoulders, hands that never stop moving. Most of the performance is listening: a man hearing criticism and visibly deciding whether to swallow it or throw a pan. Shameless is where the grit was first pressed in, the clever kid in a chaotic house, his cleverness souring over the years into something restless and real. The Iron Claw swapped the nervy energy for a big, gentle physicality that caught plenty of people off guard. White never calms a scene down; he lets you feel how close it is to boiling over. Young, yes, but nothing mild about it, and the edges keep getting sharper.

Carmen 'Carmy' Berzatto
The Bear
The highs and lows of Carmie have me on the edge of my seat, stressed, wishing he’d just take a break and disappear into the sunset for a bit. Not a single emotion depicted by JAW and his perfect baby blues feels forced or acted. He’s a stand out actor of our generation and I quietly relish in watching what role he carefully selects next.
