I mean, who walks around looking like that anyway? We could re-launch the Swank hot-or-not debate. And I would argue that, yes, she is indeed good-looking. Exhibit A , B , and C. And lord knows Swank can do that; the actress picked up two Academy Awards in five years.
Some, even more than for their work. When placed in a bunch that includes Halle Berry, Charlize Theron, Reese Witherspoon, Kate Winslet, and Natalie Portman, is it possible to avoid the hot-or-not debate amongst pop culture consumers? Is there some sort of bizarre higher standard for beauty when it comes to Oscar-winning actresses?
Heck, even Helen Mirren has been sexualized since winning an award for The Queen. The novel wasn't bad. Nevermind - don't answer. I'm going to start a thread so that we can all hate it together. She grew up pretty poor, correct? And in her public appearances she's always struck me as a little awkward, insecure, and a bit reserved - she doesn't have the easy charm and confidence of someone who's grown up comfortably. And honestly she hasn't been a great fit for roles that require her to have that smoothness and confidence, whereas her roles in BDC and MDB seemed tailor-made for her background and personality.
I can totally see her insecurity about her background manifesting itself in miserable behavior "Do you know who I am?! Still, whatever she's like personally, I don't deny she has lots of talent and she deserved those Oscars when she won them. She may not have exceptional range and can only play certain types of roles well, but many actors can't play any types of roles well.
I agree on her being better suited for character and support roles rather than leads, unless there's a specific lead that plays to her strengths. She has no range whatsoever. She can only play one type of role competently; that she won two Oscars for giving the same basic performance astonishes me. How were Brandon Teena and Maggie Fitzgerald anything alike? The characters couldn't be more different, personality-wise.
The only thing they had in common was that they were from the Midwest. Have never been all that much of a fan, but isn't that what pretty much everyone said not all that long after "Boys Don't Cry"? Kathy Griffin et. In no way was bening the front runner in r Swank won almost everything that year. The only thing bening won was the SAG award. Bening was a very distant second place to swank.
American beauty was Kevin spaceys movie, boys don't cry was a showcase for swank. She is only good at playing ONE type of role: that of a mannish, white trash girl.
She got two Oscars from pure luck. She's not that talented and God knows she's not much to look at. She's been VERY lucky. I loved "The Gift" and just about everyone in it.
I loathe Swank but she was fine. Keanu, Blanchett and Ribisi were all very good, as was Greg Kinnear. Even Katie Holmes was pretty good. I agree with you, completely.
I never thought she was that good in Boys Don't Cry - her performance is constructed so that it pretty much resonates in Sevigny's performance. She should give her Oscar to Chloe. Her whole schtick in the Clint Eastwood movie was to play earnest, then earnest and then more earnest. ZERO fucking range. After her second Oscar she got insanely greedy and asked for very high fees.
That's one of the reasons she never really did anything of notice in the last ten years and had to resort to paid appearances, like the one for the Chechnya's dictator's birthday. I thought she was pretty then and was amazed when I later saw her on magazine covers for "Boys Don't Cry". She was an orphan who lived with her wealthy grandmother because both of her parents died in a car crash.
So naturally, she's a troubled teen, who Miyahi an old army friend of the also deceased grandfather must help out. BTW, he doesn't teach her Karate as much as help her hone her skills; growing up she'd already learned it from her grandfather who'd learned it from Miayi long ago.
I also liked her in The Gift and The Horseman. Everything else? She's been utter crap. In her speech she thanked her mother and made a remark like, "Living out of our car was worth it, wasn't it?
Since generally people had no idea who Hilary Swank was she gave the impression that she went from living in poverty to holding an Oscar in the space of two years. Swank had a steady stream of made-for-t. Her "living out of a car" and "poor" days were long, long behind her when she won her first Oscar. Also - I don't think she would have been with Chad Lowe if he did not have a famous last name. At the time Chad didn't know she left him out of her speech because he was a little rung on her Hollywood career ladder.
That makes no sense. So she's phony because she recounted a time when she and her mother were struggling financially and how she went from that to winning the Academy Award? Didn't that racist cunt Charlize Theron also call out her mother and some long-forgotten incident from her childhood when accepting her Oscar?
Bening was such a tasteless, entitled cunt that awards season, even going so far as to time her pregnancy so that she'd be on the verge of giving birth on Oscar night. I think Annette thought the pregnancy and the Beatty name would be enough to buy her a win. I was thrilled when this bitch lost to Swank and even more so that she was the only big loser from the American Beauty nominees that night.
Charlize thanked her mother who killed her abusive husband and Charlize's father. Ironic how she ended up with Sean Penn. What happened to Mizz Swank, you ask? Well, she had an unfortunate accident before the Kentucky Derby and had to be shot.
We'll miss this undeserving double-Oscar winner said no one, ever. How she ever managed to snag a Lowe brother is a mystery I guess I just answered my own question. Pure white trash. That said, she deserved both Oscars. How could someone see 'Boy's Don't Cry' and say its undeserving? Fucking stupid to say. Seriously, how many actors remain "A-List" ot "big" for a long period of time? Not many. At least she had her moment. I remember pundits at the time saying that her pregnancy would help her.
She was heavily pregnant and gave birth just two weeks after the ceremony on April 8, It's kind of funny that she would go on to lose to a heavily pregnant Natalie Portman 11 years later.
People forget that Warren Beatty was being honored with an Irving G. Thalberg Award that night, so people assumed they would award both husband and wife.
Bening really had a lot of goodwill. She was the only one of the Best Actress nominees in a Best Picture-nominated films; in fact, the frontrunner which swept the awards that night. Then you have Beatty also being honored and her being 13 days from giving birth.
Where did it all go wrong? R65 You know more than every single critic's group and the entire voting branch of ampaas or whatever it's called? Tell me Uta Hagen, what do you know? She's going to be in a series by the director of Birdman. Many big stars are doing premium cable tv.
