2019 will go down as the year of Florence Pugh, for in quite a short time, the Oxfordshire, UK native has blown us away with quite a range. Some have called a Florenaissance. It’s a breakout year reminiscent to when Edward Norton strode into the 1996 award season with Everyone Says I Love You, The People vs. Larry Flynt and Primal Fear, the latter which scored him his first Oscar nom. Back at Sundance in January, Pugh demonstrated her kickass in the MGM Dwayne Johnson production Fighting with My Family in which she played real-life British wrestler Saraya Knight. That morphed into playing the anguished and tormented teenager Dani in Ari Aster’s absurdist Swedish folk horror Midsommar in July, and is climaxing this Christmas in Greta Gerwig’s revisionist remake of Little Women in which Pugh dons puffy satin Parisian dresses as Amy March, the privileged sister to Saoirse Ronan’s Jo March.
