Mia Goth will get an Oscar one day, and I cannot wait to see what performance it will be that gets her it.

I'm fully convinced that Mia Goth only plays in genuinely dark and messes up films, but man is she good in those roles. Her performances in both "Pearl" and "Infinity Pool" are two of the best of the 2020s. She's truly terrifying and unsettling due to the unpredictability of her characters.

This was my favorite movie of the trilogy. Her acting was amazing, especially that monologue at the end.

Her monologue was so good it makes you pay attention at THE Actress & not just what she had to act out.

We truly are living in a horror renaissance. I am so grateful for Mia Goth, Ti West, Mike Flanagan, Jordan Peele, James Wan, Julia Ducournau, and Damian Leone in the industry, just to name a few.

I watched Pearl last night, not knowing a thing about Mia Goth. What an amazing actress. The movie was captivating and her monologue at the end was the best scene I’ve ever scene an actor perform
