Nicole Kidman

The word fearless is a term often used to describe multi-Golden Globe and Oscar award-winning actress and producer, Nicole Kidman. In fact, she has always gravitated towards the most challenging roles, be it a beaten and battered police detective in Destroyer, the victim of domestic abuse in Big Little Lies, or emulating America’s beloved icon Lucille Ball in Being the Ricardos, for which she is currently nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Drama.

Coming to Hollywood from Australia and marrying a famous star was not enough for the young Nicole Kidman in 1992, who had had a career of her own in her home country and was hoping for one in Hollywood. The now 11 time-nominee and 4 time-Golden Globe-winner tells us that the HFPA were the first to recognize her talent, something Kidman will never forget.

Everybody loved I Love Lucy, a TV show so popular that, as we are reminded in the new film Being the Ricardos, audiences weren't going anywhere that night of the week, the show averaging 60 million viewers each episode, basically a 90% share at that time (the 50s). The film, written and directed by Aaron Sorkin, reminds us also about the relationship between American comedienne Lucille Ball (played by Nicole Kidman) and Cuban husband Desi Arnaz (Javier Bardem), partners extraordinaire in life and art, just before the Cuban revolution of 1959 would forever alter the relationship between the two countries.

The Undoing is set in the heart of New York City. The main characters, Grace and Jonathan Fraser, – played by Nicole Kidman and Hugh Grant – live on the rich Upper East Side, where women and men take luxurious designer brands for granted as part of their wardrobe.

In The Undoing, Nicole Kidman stars as Grace Fraser, a therapist with an affluent New York life style that almost seems too good to be true. With a doctor husband who adores her, a young son, who is thriving and doing well in his prestigious private school, and a job that satisfies her intellect, she has what one could consider the perfect life.

In the weeks before the Corona Virus stopped public gatherings, women chose trousers, while both sexes went for comfort. .

The Toronto International Film Festival has grown into a behemoth on the festival circuit, obligatory industry nexus, North American launch pad for studio and world films alike and all-around celebration of the love of cinema. All with some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet.

MLK Weekend is over and expected front runner Glass came in first, but with lower results than predicted. At $47 million over four days, Universal and Blumhouse's psychological thriller fell short of the $60 million debut analysts had projected for it but was still comfortably in first place on the domestic chart.

In many ways, Nicole Kidman is the very embodiment of a fearless actor. In 2018 alone, the Australian actress has cinematically walked in the shoes of an Atlantis Queen, a Baptist minister’s wife and a beaten and battered police detective - a brazen role that secured Kidman her 13th Golden Globe nomination, this time for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture - Drama for her portrayal of Erin Bell in Destroyer.
