Olivia Colman, during the 2018 awards season, first won the Best Actress award at the Venice Film Festival with "The Favourite" directed by Ogles, and then made great progress, defeating the No. 1 actress at the Oscars. Glenn-Close, who has been nominated seven times but has never won an award, won the Best Actress statuette, causing a minor upset.——
Not only because "The Favorite" is Olivia's first Oscar nomination; but also because before "The Favorite", few audiences were familiar with Olivia..
But in fact, in the UK, Olivia's popularity in the field of TV series and dramas is not the same, especially the reputation among industry insiders is very good..
This actor was born in Norfolk, England. His father is a Royal Chartered Surveyor and his mother is a nurse. He is shy and introverted and has an average appearance. He has also suffered from anorexia for a long time because of lack of confidence in his figure—— Even now, she still has no confidence in her slightly chubby figure. Especially after giving birth to her first child, she struggled with postpartum depression and life was very difficult..
Olivia's family can't be considered ordinary - she studied in a private middle school, but she can't be considered wealthy either. She spent her entire teenage years moving around. She got into Cambridge University through her own efforts and is looking forward to becoming a primary school teacher; At Cambridge University, she became interested in acting and met her future husband, Ed-Sinclair, in the amateur drama club.）.
Ed, who studied in the law department, failed to become a lawyer, but became a writer; similarly, Olivia failed to become an elementary school teacher. After only one semester, she decided to drop out of school and make a career for herself. Trying to be a real actress for a while - in a way, Olivia and Renly are on the same path.
Her mother suggested that she give herself a year of trial and error; she gave herself ten years..
After taking a break from school, Olivia first studied at the Amateur Drama Club of Cambridge University, and then went to Bristol Old Vic Theater to study drama. After successfully graduating, she started her career as an actress, but she spent nearly twenty years of anonymity.
She once appeared in commercials, she once lived in the attic of a friend's house, she once found coins from the cracks of the sofa to buy potatoes to satisfy her hunger, and she also worked as a cleaner for a long time, and her life of starvation lasted for a long, long time. For a long time, until 2010, she opened up the situation through the TV series "The Troubled Priest", which won her the opportunity to act in the work "Tyrannosaurus" - this film successfully won the 2011 Sundance Special Jury Award. Award, specifically for the performances of Olivia and leading actor Peter-Mullan, and won the British Academy Award for Best Outstanding Local Debut the following year.
This became an important turning point for Olivia's acting career.
2011"2012" in 2012, "The Accusation" in 2012, and "Small Town" in 2013. It took three years, three TV series, and three steps to reach the pinnacle of his career. He can truly be called a household name, famous and rich. Double income; at the same time, she also appeared as a special guest in the British national TV series "Doctor Who", and her popularity reached its peak..
Compared to movies, Olivia's achievements in the field of TV series are incredible. She later appeared in series such as "The Night Manager", "The Crown", "Fleabag", and "Les Misérables" Among them, every role in every work has been unanimously praised by the industry. There is no doubt that he is one of the most important TV drama actors in the second decade of the 21st century in the UK..
If it is Hollywood, after TV drama actors become famous, they will more or less try to enter the film field. Whether they can succeed is another matter; but in the UK, TV dramas have a unique status, and TV drama actors transform into The situation of movie actors does exist, but it is not a common phenomenon.
Olivia has never taken the initiative to try it. Although she did appear in a few movies, they are not the type that can be seen in the mainstream market. She insists on enjoying the happiness brought by acting in her own comedies. - Some people say that this is called staying in one's own comfort zone, refusing to make progress or change; but others say that this is called constantly polishing one's own professional field and seeking one's own breakthroughs..
In Renly's opinion, Olivia belongs to the latter.
“"Lobster" is Olivia's small attempt in the film field. It still continues her consistent style, choosing a supporting role, giving the character a unique charm with her own performance style in a limited space, and then silently The land blooms with a light unique to the character.
For Renly, what he is most looking forward to during this filming of "The Lobster" is his collaboration with Olivia - not because Olivia later won the Oscar, but because of Olivia's comedy performance The style is very, very skillful and shows a unique performance temperament; this also makes Renly look forward to co-starring, especially in opposite roles, and looking forward to making more attempts in his comedy performances..
But he didn't expect that after their first meeting, Renly's simple conversation left an extremely deep impression on Olivia. The wisdom revealed in every gesture showed the accumulation and accumulation after years of washing, from the inside out. Exudes a unique charm.
Now Renly can vaguely understand how Olivia completed a desperate comeback in the future awards season of her previous life when Glenn Close was leading the way in terms of momentum and voice. She indeed showed a An interesting soul, it’s hard not to be liked among college PR staff.
“……I am more willing to show the interesting soul of the character in front of the movie camera." Renly's response made Olivia laugh happily..
She made a pinched expression, "That's a shame. The audience should have a deeper understanding of your true face. I think they will like it.".”
“What do you like? "The wind brought a cheerful voice, with a hint of excitement..
Olivia turned her head, and Renly also raised his chin in response to the voice, and then he could see Léa Seydoux with short blond hair walking from the direction of the hotel, "We have been observing inside for a long time. But you seem to be stuck here unable to move. Are you waiting for the sun to come out?？”
Olivia said meaningfully, "We are discussing which girl will fall for Lord Renly Hall." As she spoke, her eyes moved back and forth between Leia and Renly meaningfully, hinting that It couldn't be more obvious, but her eyes were very hidden, not gossipy at all, but rather naughty and joking..
Léa Seydoux, Renly met her once at Cannes last year. This new-generation French actress became famous all over the world with "La Vie Adele"; in fact, she had already starred in "Midnight in Paris" , "Mission: Impossible 4", "Inglourious Basterds" and other works, and last year also appeared in "The Grand Budapest Hotel"”.
As the granddaughter of the chairman of EMI, the old French film company, and the grandniece of the chairman of Gaumont Film Company, Léa is a typical third-generation star, coming entirely from an acting family; however, she is still looking for acting opportunities down-to-earth, hoping to truly polish her acting skills The edges and corners come.
Sensing Olivia's eyes, Leya and Renly exchanged glances, and then both laughed - Leya has a stable boyfriend outside the circle, and Renly has also established a relationship with Rooney, although They don't know much about each other's private lives, but they definitely don't call each other..
Such a calm and straightforward reaction made the teasing Olivia a little uncomfortable. She immediately realized that she might have guessed wrong, but she did not panic and said with a smile, "Obviously, I should Plus boys option.”
Such a witty reaction made both Renly and Leia burst into laughter..
“Hey! you! It's going to rain. If you don't come in, you may be refused entry by the hotel..”
The three people looked at each other. Ben Whishaw couldn't hold back his emotions after all, and took the initiative to come out and say hello. Obviously, Renly and Olivia stood at the door for so long without moving. , the actors and crew members in the hotel were a little unable to hold themselves back..
Renly stretched out his right hand towards Olivia again. This time Olivia did not refuse. She handed the suitcase to Renly and said "thank you" with a smile. Then the three of them walked towards the dozen Hotel door steps away.
Ben Whishaw gave Olivia a warm hug - Whishaw, who is also active in the field of British TV series, and Olivia are obviously acquaintances; moreover, Whishaw and Rhea had just collaborated on "007" "Spectre", the two of them are no strangers, only Renly is meeting them for the first time..
“I hope you are not discussing my lateness, otherwise I will be embarrassed." Renly said proactively - the other actors have already arrived, and now it seems that Renly is indeed the last actor to arrive on the set..
Renly defused the atmosphere in this way, and Whishaw couldn't help but laugh, "No, we are discussing how Ogos trained the parking lot boy with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Is it a coincidence or is it his royal job? Personnel?" A joke made everyone look towards the parking lot, and then burst into laughter..
Like Olivia and Rhea, Whishaw is also a familiar name in the industry. Before entering the field of television and movies, he had been in the theater circle for several years and made a name for himself with the role of Hamlet; in 2006, " "Perfume" brought him into the public eye, and subsequent "Richard II", "Cloud Atlas", "Skyfall" and "Paddington" helped him successfully win a place in the film industry.
From here you can get a glimpse of the entire "Lobster" crew - this is a crew with solid acting skills, and each actor has a certain degree of fame and popularity in their own field! This should be another crew that gathers major stars after "Interstellar".
