"At the Hollywood premiere held at the Dolby theater,
Jennifer Ehle, who plays a similarly dedicated analyst, talked about the women
she and Chastain take on. Both were heavily researched by Boal, and like all
the characters in the film, are carefully distorted so as not to reveal the

the hunt, was named the NBR's best actress. </span><br />

tracking down and reading more mentions and reviews of Zero Dark Thirty than

<a href="http://www.blogto.com/film/2012/11/robocop_film_shoot_takes_over_harbord_and_clinton/">Robocop</a> continued
filming around Toronto on November 25th though obviously, per the Q and
A photos from LA on the same date, Jennifer wasn't on the set. It would
be cool to see her on that bike, though!</div>

So far the published response to Zero Dark Thirty has been
overwhelmingly and uniformly favorable, with reviewers praising the way
the story is told and the outstanding acting. Here are two more.<br />

<a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/01/zero-dark-thirty-review-jessica-chastain-film_n_2223736.html">Christy Lemire, Movie Critic for The Associated Press</a> wrote about the film ("pure, unadorned storytelling, an effort to recreate what
happened with absolute authenticity and zero excess")
and its central character. We get a peek
at a scene Jennifer is in.<br />
"We don't learn much about her [Maya,
Jessica Chastain's role] since she has practically no personal life;
what she does speaks for who she is. <b>At a rare dinner out one night, a fellow female colleague (</b><i>Jennifer Ehle, excellent as always</i><b>) conspiratorially asks Maya whether she's messed around with a good-looking co-worker of theirs.</b> Maya is appalled by the very suggestion. She's a professional. Besides, there's no time."</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Though Jennifer is not mentioned directly, you ought to read <a href="http://www.slashfilm.com/zero-dark-thirty-review-an-unforgettable-procedural-anchored-by-one-womans-sense-of-patriotic-duty/">Germain Lussier’s</a> review at slashfilm. It's really good.</div>

middle sequence being one incredibly long and relentless chase broken up into a
number of segments. Bigelow begins the movie with silence and a black screen
that’s soon filled with the sounds of September 11th, 2001. We get about 2
minutes of the horror of 9/11 before jumping 2 years to the brutal
interrogation of a terrorist relative of Osama bin Laden. This is also where we
meet CIA operative Maya (Chastain). She’s there meeting the officers working to
capture bin Laden, including the senior agent (Jason Clarke) leading what can
only be described as torture of the terrorist, <b>and one of the few other female members of the task force (Jennifer Ehle)</b>. Maya and them [<i>sic</i>] (plus another
main member of the CIA played by Harold Perrineau) soon begin working together

Chandler) </span><span style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Cambria; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">on the leader’s whereabouts.”</span><br />

“What's refreshing about <em><span style="font-family: Cambria; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Zero Dark
Thirty </span></em>is just how honest and ballsy it is. Bigelow and Boal forego
Hollywood melodrama in exchange for telling this story as accurately as they
can without letting emotions get in the way. Some people may be turned off by
that. Some people may want a husband or a boyfriend or a worried parent leaving
concerned voicemails from the other side of the world -- something that
connects them to Maya and explains how a person can devote so much of
themselves to one cause. We never get those answers, and it's what makes the
movie better.”</div>

“It's frankly incredible that, in the middle of such a
complicated story, Zero Dark Thirty presents such a complex character in Maya,
a tough woman in an impossible job who sidesteps every imaginable possible
cliche. Everything about her, from the way she wears a scarf over her head when
interrogating a detainee to the false smiles she gives to put powerful men at
ease, speaks to her unusual position as a woman in the Middle East, but that
contrast never becomes text, just another fascinating layer in a story with no
simple conclusions. Not all of the characters around her are equally as
complex-- Chris Pratt, Harold Perrineau and Joel Edgerton are just a few of the
big names who are gone as soon as they arrive-- but <b>Jennifer Ehle</b>, Kyle
Chandler, James Gandolfini and especially Clarke all <b>make their impact</b>, though
all somewhat overshadowed by the powerhouse that is Chastian. Like the woman at
its center, Zero Dark Thirty exudes a constant, quiet confidence, telling a
story with an ending we all know and making it feel thrilling, suspenseful, and
completely vital.”</div>

We know nothing about
Maya's background, she has little enough of a life to explore outside of her
work and doesn't take to others easily. Our sense of her emerges slowly by way
of Chastain's elegantly steely performance. Maya doesn't tend to let down her
guard in front of others, and so our ideas about her inner life come from
glimpses around its edges and through those moments when she lets things slip —
from the warmth that bleeds into <b>her interactions with her coworker and eventual friend (Jennifer Ehle)</b> or the way she takes to writing the number of
days of bureaucratic inaction on important information she uncovered on the
door of her boss George's (Mark Strong) office.”</span></div>

Here are a few more reactions to the November 25th initial screening of Zero Dark Thirty.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.boxoffice.com/reviews/2012-11-zero-dark-thirty">James Rocchi's</a> review at BoxOffice is worth reading for his descriptions and insights. He notes the "<i>star-free (and </i><b>talent-rich</b><i>) ensemble"</i>.<style><!--

and uncompromising. His comments on Jennifer’s performance: "<i>Jennifer Ehle contributes a tremendous performance</i> as
another analyst on Maya's team, and I particularly liked the way they etched
their growing relationship without needing to pump up the friendship in some
artificial way."

war, the polite suited war that is Washington, and the last, where she takes
one of the most well-worn tropes of the film world, “the raid”</span>.

<div class="MsoNormal">
It sounds, from this article and other hints, that Jennifer's character is seen in the first act (only?). He writes:
"<span style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Cambria; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">The supporting cast – and everyone else is supporting the one character
with significance in each of the three acts – is flawless. Clarke and <b>Jennifer Ehle</b> and Edgar Ramirez and Mark Strong kill it in the first act."</span></div>

isn't perfect -- most noticeably when a CIA agent who is meeting with an
al-Qaeda source is <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">way</i> too excited
about just how well this meeting is going to go. I mean, to the point that
she's bragging that the president of the United States will have to be briefed
after the meeting because of all of the wonderful information that's going to
be shared. Needless to say, the meeting goes about as poorly as a meeting with
a suspected terrorist can go." </span><br />
[Could this be her character? It says ‘she’ and evidently
isn’t Maya]<br />
<br />
<br />
Enough hints have been dropped so far about Jennifer's (as yet unnamed) role to wonder about the mentioned exit, first act references, the possible source for the character, and a car exploding in the film's ad to <u>speculate</u> about a few things. Just sayin'.<br />

Sunday November 25th. The West Coast audience had a
discussion with the director and some of her cast members (including Jennifer) immediately
following. <br />
<br />
Some of those fortunate enough to have seen it have written reviews. I'm sure there will be more, for they've come fairly fast and furious tonight. Here's a sampling of what I've seen so far. The reaction is very favorable and we finally get an idea of Jennifer's role.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/race/oscar-race-zero-dark-thirty-393904">The Hollywod Reporter</a> has an analysis of the film's place in the Oscar race, describing that Jennifer plays a <span style="color: black;">female intelligence officer and is one of a "</span><span style="color: black;">a team of solid supporting players" surrounding star Jessica Chastain. <a href="http://www.awardsdaily.com/blog/2012/11/25/zero-dark-thirty-comes-in-late-as-one-of-2012s-best/">Awards Daily</a> and <a href="http://www.goldderby.com/news/3632/zero-dark-thirty-30-movies-jessica-chastain-entertainment-news.html">GoldDerby</a> have something to say about the film's Oscar worthiness too.</span><br />
<span style="color: black;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: black;">The Hollywood Reporter also has a review of the film by <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movie/zero-dark-thirty/review/393870">Todd McCarthy</a></span><br />
<span style="color: black;">In it he says Chastain's character, Maya, "</span><span style="color: black;">becomes tolerably friendly with a gregarious, chatty female colleague (the ever-wonderful <strong>Jennifer Ehle</strong>)". He writes that </span>it could well be the most impressive film Bigelow has made!<br />
<br />
<br />
Time Entertainment's review <a href="http://entertainment.time.com/2012/11/25/zero-dark-thirty-the-girl-who-got-bin-laden/">The Girl Who Got bin Laden</a> by Richard Corliss notes that "With the dense dialogue spread across more than 100 speaking roles, the supporting actors could be mere information carriers, but many make excellent use of their limited screen time" and includes Jennifer among them, playing <i>"a warm, seen-it-all field agent</i>".<br />
<br />
<br />
At the Playlist blog, <a href="http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/review-zero-dark-thirty-is-a-dense-intense-national-security-procedural-20121125">Rodrigo Perez</a> describes the two and a half hour movie as dispassionate, clinical and grindingly thorough and also as gripping and riveting. Chastain’s character works "alongside other intelligence CIA officers in Pakistan played by Jason Clarke, <b>Jennifer Ehle</b> and Harold Perrineau (all of whom arguably have the most substantial parts in the film other than the lead)."<br />

<a href="http://www.showbiz411.com/2012/11/25/review-kathryn-bigelow-zero-dark-thirty-exposes-bin-laden-hunt-and-kill">Roger Friedman</a> at Showbiz 411 agreed, saying:<br />
"'Zero Dark Thirty' really stars Chastain and <b>Jennifer Ehle</b>, with the men
of the film ... taking secondary but
important roles."<br />
<br />
"Boal’s screenplay isn’t so much about backstory for the characters
(there isn’t any) but making them interesting enough to follow through
this crusade." <br />
<br />
"It’s to his and Chastain’s credit that Maya gets richer
and develops more layers as the film progresses, particularly once
<b>Ehle's very brilliant agent</b> exits the story. (I don’t want to give too
much away.)"<br />
<br />
"Chastain and Ehle are the standouts."<br />
<br />
Ha! Could the lack of backstory explain why imbd hasn't (last I looked) filled out the character names? Maybe most of them have none assigned.<br />
<br />
<br />
Kristopher Tapley in a write-up at <a href="http://www.hitfix.com/in-contention/kathryn-bigelows-zero-dark-thirty-tells-it-straight-to-varying-effect">HitFix</a> likes the supporting cast, including Jennifer who "though not in the film for long, adds her own spark."<br />
<br />
Also at HitFix <a href="http://www.hitfix.com/awards-campaign/mark-boal-calls-zero-dark-thirty-a-story-of-a-western-liberated-woman-who-defeated-al-qaeda">Gregory Ellwood</a> wrote a about the film, the showing in LA, and, of special interest, the Q&A following. "After two standing ovations, one for Bigelow and the other for Chastain,
the duo were joined by Boal, Clarke, Ehle and Edgar Martinez for what
turned out to be an entertaining 40-minute Q&A." And in his review he mentioned Jennifer as one of the standouts of the supporting cast. <br />
<br />
<br />
Summarizing the gleanings ~<br />
Her role:<br />
female intelligence officer who is a gregarious, chatty, warm, seen-it-all, and very brilliant agent<br />
<br />
Her performance:<br />
solid supporting player<br />
one of the standouts of the supporting cast<br />
adds her own spark <br />
"Ms Chastain and Jennifer Ehle dominate the men in the movie." <br />
"really stars Chastain and Jennifer Ehle"<br />
"Chastain and Ehle are the standouts"<br />
