Patricia Arquetteがノミネート

映画BoyhoodでPatricia Arquetteが助演女優賞にノミネートされていました。失礼ながらTrue Romanceに出ていたハリウッド女優だったとはBoyhoodの映画を見たときには全く気付きませんでした。



まあ２０年前のことですから仕方がないのかもしれません。。。メグライアンやレニー ゼルウィガーなどのことを考えると彼女の方が健全なのかもしれません。このあたりのこともラジオのFresh Airで語っていました。



On aging in the film and as an actress in Hollywood
Arquette: As an actress, for me, I think there's such a pressure in the world for women to look a certain way, especially if you have success at a certain moment in your life in the ingenue age group — that you're supposed to hold onto that. And I really wanted to move away from that status as quickly as possible.

It's true for human beings that a lot of the story of life is the mating story, is the falling in love story, is the having children story; so it does make sense that a large percentage of the stories are told in that age group, I think. But Hollywood tells the actresses what they need to look like to continue working, and I don't believe that of human beings. I don't believe that's true of many stories, and I do think as an actress it gives you a very short shelf life if you buy into that. ...

If you look at paintings throughout history of female beauty, the one that we're creating right now is a really weird one.

Boyhoodがどこまで賞をとれるか楽しみですね。
