nostalgia Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Blunt is now 40 and the biggest British female movie star of her generation: currently pipping Knightley and Mulligan; a natural successor to Weisz and Winslet. You can trace the lineage back further – some Dench deprecation, a little Mirren wither. A very shredded Maggie Smith. When he was writing the film, says Nolan, “I thought about running away from Kitty. She is a frightening character.” He recruited Blunt to “humanise” her, then was surprised how keenly she embraced Kitty’s worst angles: “No vanity, no fear of humiliation, no wanting to control the way she would appear.” She is pro-strike: “I am a big believer in unions getting exactly what they want.” She is also pro-resolution: “I’m a huge believer in getting our crews back to work – the people who will suffer most.” For Blunt, the industrial action is also quite well timed. A few weeks ago, she mentioned in a podcast that she was taking a year off to spend with her daughters, Hazel, nine, and Violet, six, and her husband, the actor and film‑maker John Krasinski. Actually, she says, that has been overplayed: “I’m not quitting Hollywood. It’s OK, guys. Just taking a little bit of downtime.” https://amp.theguardian.com/film/2023/jul/21/emily-blunt-women-pressured-oppenheimer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Monday Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 I think Carey Mulligan is the stronger actress between the two but I do love Miss Blunt. She does give off Kate Winslet vibes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
