If there is a common strand to her roles it is their marginality; time and again she gets at the subtle agonies of women who are failing but not spectacularly so. The movie for which I remember Linney best is The Savages , from , in which she played a dismal, angry, disappointed woman trying to get her aged father into a home. At one point, she pretends to her brother, played by Philip Seymour Hoffman , that she has won a Guggenheim fellowship — and Linney is so convincing, so tortured in her dogged defence of the lie, even as all those around her see through it, that even now I blush to remember those scenes. And we became very close. It was heaven.
