Olsen's performances led many critics to consider her the star of the festival that year, especially for her work on Martha Marcy May Marlene. According to Olsen, he fell in love with that project because "the audience takes the point of view of my character, Martha, they will see what the present is and what the past is through flashbacks." Then, what happened to him [in a cult] is It is revealed slowly, but what is happening in the present is for the audience to decide if it is real or if it is paranoia. "

She was also one of the protagonists of the drama In Secret, playing the character of Emile Zola, Thérèse Raquin, and the suspense thriller Old Boy.

"I've been training in theater and dance since I was a child, so being in front of a camera was really the most frightening thing," Olsen said of her early career as an actress, adding that she hopes to continue her acting on the screen. Work for the foreseeable future "I hope to be able to do theater and cinema, I really love everything".
