Listen to this BEAUTIFUL discussion with @unsinkable in a co-hosted podcast about Kate Winslet in The Holiday from 2006!
Kate uses her real accent in this film (apparently for the first time in her career), but seems to play a real version of herself (down to earth, compassionate, goofy / real sense of humor). Thanks Brenda ( @kleoofdreams on Twitter) for suggesting that this movie allowed "more of Kate's personality to shine through". And yes, does Iris shine! :D
We discuss many elements including:
- How Kate can showcase wonderful acting without saying a single word (when she explores the L.A. house for the first time).
- How for a rom-com Kate showcases her acting talent by being very vulnerable and real (including real tears) in several scenes.
- How this movie and what Iris went through, was similar to experiences that L.A. Beadles went through, and how the line "You’re supposed to be the leading lady of your own life" spoke so much to L.A. and speaks to me too.
- Kate's most fricking fricking (yes double) amazing real monolog near the end of the movie, and demonstrates what only truly talented actors / actresses can do.
- How Kate pulls off a line that could be "CORNY" but Kate turns it into one of the most memorable and powerful lines in the film.
- We also discuss Internet fodder about "how could someone like Kate Winslet fall for someone like Jack Black", how annoying & uneducated this thought is, and how people should instead focus on the people that are Iris and Miles.
- At the time this movie was filmed, Kate had not won an Oscar yet, but had been nominated 4 times. The look she gives Arthur's Oscar in this film, tee hee.
- Finally, how this movie illustrates female self-worth and empowerment.
The Holiday stars Kate Winslet, Cameron Diaz, Jack Black, Jude Law, & Eli Wallach, along with Rufus Sewell and Edward Burns. :) Directed by Nancy Meyers.
