Unusually poised as saint, showing no emotion (13)

I believe the answer is:

dispassionate

'showing no emotion' is the definition.

'unusually poised as saint' is the wordplay.
'unusually' indicates anagramming the letters.
'poised'+'as'+'saint'='poisedassaint'
'poisedassaint' is an anagram of 'DISPASSIONATE'.

(Other definitions for dispassionate that I've seen before include "Rational, impartial" , "Imperturbable" , "taking the unbiased view?" , "Not affected by personal feelings" , "Objective, unemotional" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
