LOIS SMITH IS BRILLIANT IN THE AMERICANS
In tonight's episode of The Americans, Lois Smith, one of our truly great actresses, does a brilliant turn as an old woman in the wrong place at the wrong time. After a soft spoken almost friendly encounter, she speaks sudden, bitter, and surprising truth.

Not her biggest role, but nevertheless one of Lois' many exceptional roles was in FIVE EASY PIECES, one of my all-time favorite films, a special gem of a film, not to be missed by anyone who loves film and great ensemble acting:
