Interestingly enough, I had the opposite reaction &#8212; it took me about ten minutes to get into the rhythm of the movie, and then (almost despite myself) I was hooked. I knew nothing at all about Stevie Smith before renting this movie &#8212; indeed, I hadn&#8217;t even heard of her &#8212; but quickly became interested in both her work and her life, primarily due to Jackson&#8217;s skillfully nuanced performance. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Jackson3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Jackson3-1024x618.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"386\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-60157\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Jackson3-1024x618.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Jackson3-300x181.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Jackson3-128x77.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Jackson3-768x463.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Jackson3-448x270.png 448w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Jackson3.png 1507w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>She utilizes a series of self-conscious vocal modulations and subtle facial gestures (such as nose sniffs and tongue-against-teeth movements) to portray Stevie&#8217;s unique mixture of humility, melancholy, and quietly adventurous spirit &#8212; and while she talks far too much, her performance never falters. Unfortunately, not every aspect of the film works: the flashbacks to Stevie&#8217;s childhood seem out of place; the script is far too stagy; and the strange role of Smith&#8217;s friend &#8220;The Man&#8221; (played by Trevor Howard) should have been cut altogether. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Howard.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Howard-1024x605.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"378\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-60158\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Howard-1024x605.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Howard-300x177.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Howard-128x76.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Howard-768x454.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Howard-1536x908.png 1536w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Howard-457x270.png 457w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/Stevie-Howard.png 1575w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Monologic plays ultimately work better on the small screen &#8212; I was reminded, for instance, of Eileen Atkins one-woman portrait of Virginia Woolf in <a href=\"http:\/\/imdb.com\/title\/tt0320377\/\"><em>A Room of One&#8217;s Own<\/em><\/a> (1990).
