Cynthia is BRITISH, y'all. She is playing the entire hell out of this part, not just the accent - which is flawless - but the mannerisms, too. How she's interacting with the actresses she's playing with...Give this woman an award for this part, already.

Ms. Franklin stayed relevent through every decade, because she wasn't afraid to take chances with her style. Gospel, soul, funk, pop, opera...she wanted it all and she did it all.
