Ms. Johansson is not nearly as accomplished a performer as Mr. Murray, but Ms. Coppola gets around this by using Charlotte's simplicity and curiosity as keys to her character".[30] Johansson won the BAFTA Award[31] and the Boston Society of Film Critics Award for Best Actress[32] and was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress[33] for the role. She received nominations from a number of film critic organizations, including the Broadcast Film Critics Association,[34] the Chicago Film Critics Association,[35] the Phoenix Film [36] [37] Critics Society and the Chlotrudis Awards. Johansson played Griet in 's Girl with a Pearl Earring.

She is often wordless and close to plain onscreen, but wait for the ardor with which she can summon a closeup and bloom under its gaze; this is her film, not Vermeer‘s, all the way."[39] Owen Gleiberman, for Entertainment Weekly, wrote of her "nearly silent performance", observing, "The interplay on her face of fear,

Scarlett Johansson 3

ignorance, curiosity, and sex is intensely dramatic."[40] She was nominated for the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama[33] and the BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role.[31] She was also nominated by the London [41] [36] [42] Film Critics' Circle, the Phoenix Film Critics Society and the British Independent Film Awards.

It received a limited U.S. release, and was both a box office[44] and critical[45] failure. It was described by the New York Times as a "misbegotten Hollywood-minded screen adaptation" with "an excruciating divide between the film's British actors (led by Tom Wilkinson and ), who are comfortable delivering Wilde's aphorisms ... and its American marquee names, Helen Hunt and Scarlett Johansson, [who have] little connection to the English language as spoken in the high Wildean style."[46] She also appeared in the critically-panned,[47] teen, heist film The Perfect Score and in In Good Company, in a supporting role opposite Topher Grace and Dennis Quaid.[48] Her performance in the dark, Southern drama, A Love Song for Bobby Long, earned her a third Golden Globe for Best Actress nomination.[33] Johansson was involved for a short time with the film Mission: Impossible III but was not officially [49] cast because of scheduling conflicts, although a falling out with the film's star, Tom Cruise, was reported.

2005–07

In July 2005, Johansson starred, with Ewan McGregor, in 's film, The Island, in dual roles as Sarah Jordan and her clone, Jordan Two Delta. The film was a domestic financial failure[50] [51] and received mixed critical reviews.[52] [53] In contrast, her role as Nola, the American actress with whom Chris () is obsessed, in the Woody Allen-directed drama Match Point, was well-received. The New York Times said, "Ms. Johansson and Mr. Rhys-Meyers manage some of the best acting seen in a Woody Allen movie in a long time, escaping the archness and emotional disconnection that his writing often imposes."[54] Mick LaSalle, writing in the San Francisco Chronicle, said, "[Johansson] is a powerhouse from the word go", and, "[Her performance] borders on astonishing."[55] Johansson received her fourth Golden Globe nomination,[33] and one from the Chicago Film Critics [35] Association, for Best Supporting Actress.

In another collaboration with Allen, Johansson was cast opposite Hugh Jackman

and Allen in the 2006 feature, Scoop. While the film enjoyed a modest [56] [57] [58] worldwide box office success, it received mixed reviews by critics. The New York Times called the film "not especially funny yet oddly appealing" Johansson at the film set of Vicky Cristina Barcelona in 2007 and cited parallels to The Thin Man, saying, "[while] Johansson is certainly no Myrna Loy, [her] performance is all over the place ... but finally works for a film that is itself all over the place. Mr. Allen seems happy to just watch her strut her stuff, and after a while so are we."[59] New York magazine said, "Johansson doesn‘t have the natural buoyancy to play a screwball Nancy Drew, [but] she‘s smart enough to know what‘s needed (a young ), and manages to rouse herself",[60] while USA Today criticized "her delivery of Allenesque one-liners" as "clunky", and "sometimes, she seems in over her head playing opposite Allen."[61] The same year, she appeared in Brian De Palma's The Black Dahlia, a film noir shot in and Bulgaria. Johansson later said she was a De Palma fan and had wanted to work with him on the film, even though she thought that she was "physically wrong" for the part.[62] Her reviews were mixed. CNN.com noted, "[Johansson] takes to the pulpy period atmosphere as if it were oxygen,"[63] whereas the [64] Kalamazoo Gazette referred to Johansson as "miscast".

Johansson next had a supporting role in the thriller The Prestige (2006), again opposite Hugh Jackman as well as Christian Bale. Nolan, who described Johansson as possessing an "ambiguity... a shielded quality",[65] said he was "very keen" for her to play the role.[66] Johansson said, "[she] loved working with [Nolan]", and he was "incredibly focused and driven and involved, and really involved in the performance in every aspect."[67] The film was both a critical[68] and a worldwide box office[69] success, recommended by the as "an adult, provocative piece of work."[70] Also in 2006, Johansson starred in a short film directed by [71] and set to 's "...", released to promote Dylan's album, Modern Times. Johansson starred in 2007's The Nanny Diaries, alongside . The film performed only marginally well at the box office,[72] and was critically-panned.[73] Johansson's reviews were mixed, with Variety saying, "[She] essays an engaging heroine",[74] while The New Yorker criticized her for looking "merely confused" while "trying to give the material a plausible emotional center".[75] In his review for the San Francisco Chronicle, Mick LaSalle said, "There's something painful about watching Scarlett Johansson, who looks as if she never had an indecisive moment [76] in her life, struggle to seem ineffectual."

2008–present In 2008, she starred in The Other Boleyn Girl, opposite Natalie Portman and Eric Bana,[77] a film which garnered mixed reviews.[78] [79] Writing for , Pete Travers criticized the film for "[moving] in frustrating herks and jerks", but was more positive in his assessment of Johansson and Portman, and wrote, "What works is the combustible teaming of Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson, who give the Boleyn hotties a tough core of intelligence and wit, swinging the film's sixteenth-century protofeminist issues handily into this one."[80] Variety credited the cast as "almost flawless ... at the top of its game", citing "Johansson‘s quieter Mary ... as the pic‘s emotional center, her tender love story with the conflicted monarch evoking the only genuine feelings on [81] display." She filmed her third Woody Allen film, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, in Spain,[82] appearing opposite Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz. The film was one of Allen's most profitable[83] and appeared on many critics' top ten lists of the best films of 2008.[84] Overall, the film received generally favorable reviews[85] [86] and brought co-star Cruz numerous awards, including the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.[87] Johansson was described as being [88] "open and malleable" and "serves as a nice contrast to the [other actors]". Johansson played Silken Floss, a femme fatale and ally of Samuel L. Jackson's villain The Octopus, in Frank Miller's film noir, comedy adaptation of The Spirit. The film, described as "a great-looking movie with an awkward balance of pulp noir and campy self-awareness"[89] and "style without substance, style whirling in a senseless void",[90] [91] received mostly poor reviews. Johansson appeared in the role of Anna, a yoga instructor, in the 2009 ensemble cast of He's Just Not That Into You, with Jennifer Connelly, Bradley Cooper, and Kevin Connolly. The film was a box office success[92] but only gained average critical reception.[93] [94] The San Francisco Chronicle review notes, "[The film] never soars, but it never flags" yet lauds Johansson, saying, "She has become a deft comic actress."[95] The Los Angeles Times calls the film an "anti-romantic romantic comedy" and cites the scenario in which Johansson appears with Jennifer Connelly and Bradley Cooper as having "more meat than others", making it "one of the best."[96] The Baltimore Sun criticized the film, saying, "[It] stumbles somewhat when it tries to get serious", but praised Johansson [97] for "proving she doesn't need Woody Allen to be funny." In March 2009, Johansson signed on to play Natasha Romanoff in Iron Man 2[98] after a scheduling conflict forced to drop out of the part.[99] The film, released in May 2010, was directed by and also starred Robert Downey, Jr., , Don Cheadle, Mickey Rourke, Samuel L. Jackson and .[100] Appearing at Comic-Con in San Diego, California on July 26, 2009, Johansson joked about her audition for the film, saying it consisted of "a couple of deep knee bends and lunges", but Favreau credited her with performing her own [100] stunts: "All the fighting and wire work is her own. She worked really hard and it shows on the screen."
