‘The Passage’ Boasts Some Incredible Performances
The Passagealso features some incredible performances.
Child actors are notoriously hit or miss because they are, in fact, children.
ButSaniyya Sidney’s performance as Amy Bellafonte isfantastic.Sidneydisappears entirely into the character.
She’s wounded in the way hurt kids often are guarded, but still holding onto hope.
She’s sentimental and takes to Agent Wolgast with ease, but isn’t a doormat.
Of note within the ensemble is the complicated dynamic between Cusicks Dr. Lear and McShanes Tim Fanning.
Lear knows that, and yet still fights to bring Fanning back from the virus' corruption.
It’s this striking dynamic that makes Cusick and McShane just utter perfection together.
They don’t just share a love for Elizabeth, but each other too.
Even if that love won’t prevent them from eventually destroying each other.
It is a shame and a sin thatThe Passagedidn’t get another season.
WhileThe Passagewas tragically cut short after just 10 episodes, its legacy remains a thrilling, overlooked gem.
If you missed it the first time around, now is the perfect time to dive in.
