Julie Christie's performance in "Away From Her" is superb, and has garnered her the National Board of Review's Best Actress Award. Julie Christie fans who have waited decades for the handful of films made by the luminous star wonder "Would we have wanted it any other way? We are the Red Sox fans of the movies, once again rewarded with a world-class masterpiece by our heroine. Perhaps, like all human beings, we want more, but we have learned over the last thirty-five years to be content with the diamonds that are Julie's leading performances that she gives just once a decade, content to feel that these are a surfeit of riches, our surfeit of riches, so great is their luminescence."
