Amy Adams was last seen playing a bellicose, potty-mouthed waitress in David O. Russell’s gritty drama The Fighter, a role for which she earned a deserved third Oscar nomination. This week she switches gears entirely, playing an angelic small-town schoolteacher in Disney’s PG-rated musical comedy The Muppets, and I submit that no other actress in Hollywood today could make the transition so effortlessly.
