What are your thoughts on Natalya Wallace? How did she play the part of young Eponie with the screen time she given? And on a scale of 1-1000, how cute was she? I'm just curious...I'm obsessed with Natalya.
((I know I usually don't answer these but whatever))
I liked her performance well enough. She had a very short amount of screen time, but I like how they didn't show her as a wicked child so much and more of her being a spoiled child. One of my favourite descriptions of the Thenardier children was how they weren't mean to Cosette because they were born cruel, they were following the only example they knew, so I think Natalya did have a lot of that blind innocence about her that made you feel like she would do anything and everything her parents did without question. A huge part of Eponine's character is how her life was shaped by her parents and how someone who could have been beautiful, and kind, and does show that there's more to her than being a Thenardier, was instead corrupted. Or at least, they tried to corrupt her.
I mean she's only a little girl so it's not like I'm going to be examining her acting too closely, they probably just told her exactly what to do and she did it, but I liked young!Eponine in the movie pretty well. I'd have to rewatch to get a better picture but from memory, she was pretty good.
And a 1001 on the cuteness scale
