Well, what a pleasant surprise. I checked out The Imaginarium of Dr.Parnassus this weekend. Yes, Heath Ledger was captivating but what really blew me away was the performance of 21-year old super model Lily Cole. Playing the youthful role of a flower child named Valentina, Lily stole the show.
The redheaded English model has walked for McQueen, McCartney, Gaultier and Chanel. Now she can legitimately put Actress on her resume. Trust me; I went into the movie as a big skeptic. I really didn’t think she would be able to pull off a major character, especially this being her first acting gig. Bravo Lily!
Side note: I enjoyed the movie. It was a tad confusing following the Ledger replacements but overall, I would recommend it. It allows your imagination to run wild!
