I thought she did great for someone with NO previous roles of any sort (movies, television, commercials); a true newcomer. And she was in practically every scene of the movie and had loads of dialogue, which she handled with intensity and enthusiasm. Also looked the roughly the way I envision her from the books. Her accent changed a bit here and there, but I didn't have much of a problem overlooking that. I hope she gets more roles in the future - she seems like a bright young lady and quite down to earth from what little I've seen of her outside of the film.
Lyras. There aren't many of them.

I like the first photo very much. And I notice you managed to get Serafina in there too ;)
I hadn't realised it was her first acting role. She's a natural, you couldn't tell.
Of course, if there were many Lyras they might not get appreciated so much. And there wouldn't be enough Ioreks to go round.
Very true. As a chemist would say, the number of Ioreks is the limiting factor. Especially when all our ice is breaking up and melting, it makes it hard to organise a good seal hunt, and then we can't support lots of baby Ioreks :(
So a Lyra who has a Iorek is a very lucky girl.
She was perfect for the part as well as the other actors - the movie was so so, but the books are great!
