And when her tough-girl face dissolves into that big toothy grin and those deep dimples, her delight is infectious because it's so unexpected. When she hands some B-boy back the bull he's been dishing her, and does it with the sort of timing that's so natural it doesn't catch until the rebound, you realize that Stiles has been alert all along, quietly registering everything going on around her. In "Save the Last Dance" Stiles uses just that affect to play possum. With her wide forehead and small features, her impassive face and the screw-you delivery in her flat voice, Stiles can seem totally disaffected from whatever's going on around her. As Ophelia in last year's "Hamlet," as she drove her bike through the streets of Manhattan in thrift-shop clothes, carrying her love letters in a funky box-like purse that seemed more suited to a child than a young woman, Stiles projected the particular mixture of attitude and inexperience coming off of the young art-school bohos who hang around downtowns.
Stiles' few movie roles may not yet have demonstrated a very wide range, but she remains appealing because she's nearly a contemporary archetype. In most ways "Save the Last Dance" is a typical teen-movie drama queen role, but Stiles brings it her distinctive deadpan timing. After her mother's death, Sara moves to Chicago to live with her father (Terry Kinney), a jazz musician, in his South Side apartment. In "Save the Last Dance," a bad, friendly, enjoyable movie, Stiles plays Sara, an aspiring ballerina who stops dancing after her mother is killed in a car accident on her way to watch her daughter audition for Juilliard. Julia Stiles is such a white girl that the idea of placing her in an almost all-black high school is irresistible.
