RE: I thought Swinton did a really good job with a character who was not fleshed out well . . .

Even though she had some screen time, her character was not explored very much other than being observed in a few different situations. Her preparation for her interview was an effective background for her. Unlike other characters where there was exposition, Swinton's character did not have much in the screen play to flesh it out.

I really liked two scenes she was involved in. First, when she meets Michael Clayton to discuss what was going on. The awkward nature of that meeting and the client being pretty upset and not comforted by Michael Clayton was pretty realistic. Second, her meeting with the "bag men" where she is discussing eliminating the litigator's character was also deliciously awkward. It showed how much out of her league she was which played into the final scene where Michael Clayton easily bullied her into a confession.
