Some of her acting was horrendous, some of it barely acceptable and some of it okay. One of the worse acting displays was her head bobbing up and down trying to convey alarm as the raiders streamed closer to the Galactica and she explaimed unconvincingly, "There's nothing to stop them!" But even Lawrence Olivier flubbed lines at times. An actor needs a good director to spot the mistakes and direct them to do it better. Harrison Ford is my favorite actor, one of the most popular ans successful in the business today, and Annette Benning is an outstanding actress. Regarding Henry was a very good movie, but there were certain scenes in which both of their acting was less than their usual caliber. Who's fault is that? The director. It's his/her job to spot that and correct that. Maren Jensen may have had little talent as an actress and I don't believe she did, and the script may have been less than Oscar quality, but a good director would have gotten better reactions and delivery out of her. IMHO, of course.
