Kodi Smit-McPhee

As we traverse Women's Month we pay homage to these fierce and powerful women. Not only making their mark on the red carpet but making their indelible mark on society and the world.

Jane Campion’s The Power of the Dog, along with Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast, led all nominations for the 79th Golden Globe Awards with a total of seven. In the end, Campion’s film took home the big award of the night winning Best Motion Picture – Drama, in addition to winning Best Supporting Actor – Motion Picture for Kodi Smit-McPhee and Best Director for Campion.

It is very difficult to miss Kodi Smit-McPhee in a crowd because of his 6’1” tall height and his slim, willowy frame. It is not much easier to forget his portrayal of the gentle, soft-spoken, effeminate but self-assured Peter Gordon in the Jane Campion western movie as he is pitted against a rugged, toxic, abusive and alcoholic Phil Burbank (portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch) in The Power of the Dog.
