YES! To all those things. Her history is explained while everyone else has a blank slate of a past. The film starts with her. The film’s plot is moved forward by HER actions (sparing Rick’s life/reading from the book)

She also gets scared and that’s totally okay. EVERYONE is scared. EVERYONE screams and I never get the sense that she is the victim in a horror film despite the similarities with slasher flicks (the villian’s obsession with her). She doesn’t fight physically (but there’s no wrong way to be a girl and not being a fighter doesn’t mean yuo are not strong) instead she uses her mind/translating skills to tell Jonathan that it’s a STORK, goddammit!
