The craft (1996)
By Andrew Fleming
Tunney's Sarah is the central character in The Craft. Initially, Sarah seems quite timid. In an unfamiliar environment and uncertain of her powers, Sarah meets the other girls and experiments with magic, which leads to a growing sense of confidence and power in her. Despite Sarah's lack of originality, Tunney finds ways to convey her range of feelings on screen while portraying a credible witch.
Sarah's arc is opposite that of Nancy's. In spite of Nancy's strong character and leadership in the coven, she gives into lust and temptations. Her mental state spirals into decline due to her weak will and weak mental state. As a result, Balk has the most emotion to convey on screen. Through eye glances, facial expressions, and displays of emotion, Balk nails the gnarly look. There is no escaping the fact that Nancy comes across to modern audiences as a female version of Yungblud.
There is no reason to think that being black should matter, but the shameful reality is that it sometimes does. During the 90's, this was an important role for True, showing how her character felt about racism on the big scream. You can tell from True's face that this is causing her pain and disbelief.
As Bonnie represents the weakest character in the film, she is very much a supporting actor. The most she accomplishes is her descent into bitchiness. As for Neve, she plays it well with what she has, but we don't see much range since all she has to do is reply to things in a snidely manner.
