When she learned that she won the Cannes Best Actress Award, Rooney Mara was "slaving jet lag while washing clothes", so she missed the award ceremony and did not go. The red carpet in Cannes. In 2015, at the age of 30, she won the first "Queen" award in her life for the role of Therese in "Carol".
The psychology of obsessives is similar to criminals
"Carol" is a beautiful lesbian story. In the children's toy area of the department store, Teres, a working girl wearing Christmas Little Red Riding Hood, met the lady Carol in a mink coat. Carol is worrying about divorce and fighting for custody of children, and Terrese's life has just begun. She is exploring her interests and experiencing the taste of love. The two fell in love at first sight at that moment, and then twisted and twisted. , But fortunately there is a beginning and an end. The film critic said that Rooney played the infatuation of the inexperienced girl in the movie, and the tension, sweetness, shyness, and infatuation in the secret love were very accurate. When explaining her performance, Mara thought: "The psychology of an obsessed person is similar to the psychology of a criminal"-they will care about every word the other party has said, capture every movement and eyes of the other party, and have a clear goal , Planning and hidden emotions. For the actress who has studied psychology, this may just be a normal analytical technique. Before acting "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", in order to better understand Lisbeth who suffers from Asperger's syndrome, she went to a school for children with autism and Asperger's syndrome to meet those children As a result of the investigation, she believes: “Other characters in the book always talk about Lisbeth’s Asperger’s syndrome, but that’s not true, it’s just those people who think so.”
People like to talk about Rooney Irish Her pale face is genetic. Her father has Irish, German and French descent, and her mother has Irish and Italian descent. Beneath the pale face, behind this literary girl is a great American football family. The two major players in the history of American football are related to her. Tim Mara, the founder of the New York Giants, is her great-grandfather, and Art Rooney, the founder of the Pittsburgh Steelers, is her great-grandfather. There are rumors that David Fincher is a football fan, so he hoped that a girl with American football blood in his veins would play the clever and rebellious Lisbeth. This allowed Rooney Mara to defeat the auditioner. Natalie Portman, Kelly Mulligan and many other big-name actresses. Before starring in "The Girl with Dragon Tattoo", people always need to introduce her as "Rooney Mara, Kate Mara's sister"-the sister who is two years older than her debuted very early, and the most well-known character is The female reporter in "House of Cards".
"Carol"
Todd Hines chose Mara because of the girl's stubbornness and shyness. At least since her debut, this girl's shyness is famous in the circle. She doesn't like parties, social, or being photographed on the red carpet. She believes that actors need to keep a certain distance from the audience, so she refused to tweet. She even admitted that she would divide the reporters who interviewed herself into three categories: OK, tolerable and unbearable. Most people fall into the second and third categories. In an interview with the British "Guardian", she recalled her resistance to the outside world, "probably started when she was three or four years old", she said, "I live in such a big family, maybe this is one of the reasons . For example, celebrating Christmas, there will be more than 30 faces dazzling in front of your eyes..." On Halloween at the age of 4, she dressed as a disabled girl Clara in the children’s literature book "Heidi" and asked her mother to let her go. Pushing in the stroller-because her leg needs to be disabled.
In a TV interview with host Steve Carell, Carell asked Mara, how did you choose this role? She asked in return: When the reporter received a question, could he immediately tell what you could visit and write? However, after asking the question, she honestly explained her reason for taking "Carol". "Indeed, it was not the role that attracted me here. I like this role, she is so different from my previous roles, but honestly, (accepting this role) my main motivation is to hope to be with Cate Blanchett Filming together, and Hines as the director — I don’t even need to read the script, these two reasons are enough."
"I remember the first time I saw Kate in the movie "Elizabeth", that was 1998When I was 13 years old, I was in the local theater with my mother. I was like, ‘oh my god, who is that woman? "She is so unbelievable, so smart, witty and funny. It is the easiest thing in the world to pretend to be in love with her..."
"That is a beautiful love story, I hope to show my soft side here . "
" How did you prepare for this role? "
"I hate this question".
should not be ashamed of the body
How to prepare for the role, this is the question Mara is asked the most. In the original "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", the girl Lisbeth grew up Watching her mother being abused by her father until she was seriously injured and unable to recover, she was detained in a mental hospital for 786 days and nights since she was 12 years old, of which 380 nights were tied up. She spent her teenage years almost in a mixture of alcohol, sexual promiscuity and drugs. She was isolated by society and illegally deprived of all her citizenship rights. She was expressionless, full of thorns, talented, clever, and sober, walking in the world like an angel of revenge. At that time, Mara, from herself to acting Almost all characters are good-looking girls. She was born with a golden spoon in her mouth. When her sister dropped out of college to be a film, she got her college diploma in 2010 as her parents wished. At
, Mara was really challenging one. A completely different person turned herself from a lady in a wealthy family to a bad girl who grew up in a slum. The cure system is a little fresh and needs to be turned into avant-garde and neutral overnight. She learns foul language, cuts her hair short, dyes her hair black, and touches her ears, nose, Holes in the eyebrows and even the nipples, in order to wear metal rings like the rebellious Lisbeth. In an interview, she said: “Because of those tattoos (disposable), makeup and 4 pierced ears, eyebrows and holes on the right breast …All these physical changes made me feel like I was really in a state, even when I was naked. "In "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", she appeared naked for the first time. However, the 25-year-old girl was very calm. "In the book, nudity is an important part of this character, so I am concerned about this. Didn't think too much. Those are not important. We should not be ashamed of the body. "
"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" has won her many praises, including Golden Globe and Oscar nominations for Best Actress, as well as various Best Screen Transformations and Most Breakthrough Actress Nominations-it is said, father I heard that Mara was very excited after being nominated for Best Actress in the Oscars, yelling and crying, and then went to the church to pray.
"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo"
"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" was filmed for a long time, but she still She wore the short black hair and said, "Because dyeing hair hurts my hair, I don't know if I will dye it black or bleached in the next movie, so I am too lazy to change my hairstyle. Later, she took on a series of "very special" roles. In Steven Soderbergh's psychological thriller "Side Effects", she played a conspiracy wife who pretended to be depressed and weak in appearance; then, In the new director David Lowe's crime romance film "They are not a saint", she plays a wife who was waiting for her husband to be released from prison in a small Texas town in the 1970s; in Spike Jones' sci-fi romance film "She" , She played the ex-wife of Joe Quinn Phoenix...until Terris in "Carol." In 2015, when she walked out of Terris, the reporter interviewed asked her "Lisbeth" and in reply, She used her last name to call that genius girl——Sarand.
The story of Mara’s takeover of "Carol" is also winding like Carol and Terra in the movie, with a beginning and an end. The film company 2000 I got the copyright of "Carol", but I have been dissatisfied with the script and dragged it until the copyright expired once. The original director of the film was John Crowley. At that time, Blanchett was very interested in Carroll's part. And Mara, who just finished filming "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," declined the invitation-"I don't think I can act well, so I refused. Now it seems really crazy, because acting with Kate is like a dream. "Afterwards, Crowley withdrew due to schedule reasons. The film was directed by Hines. When Hines and Blanchett asked Mara again, she agreed and the film started. This is a small-cost independent film, just to watch. It looks more like New York in the 1950s. It was shot in an old building in Cincinnati. It was shot for about 35 days in April 2014. Fortunately, those "old houses like tombs" and "the city's Atmosphere", which makes the movie feel more like that. At the
London Film Festival, Blanchett wears a blond shawl, wearing a retro style, buttoned to his chinHer black dress, Mara next to her was wearing black and purple lipstick, her ballet bun was not messy, her cheeks were thin, and she was paired with a nude pink hollow dress. Although director Soderberg once praised her face as "very classical, like from the silent film era, very photogenic", the girl born in 1985 still believes that it is not easy to play a literary girl in the 1950s. "The way I speak now is too modern. I have to imitate the accent I spoke at that time. Secondly, the clothes really help a lot. The moment we put on the clothes, it really feels like we changed." After the premiere of
"Carol", Blanchett, who was naked on the big screen for the first time, commented on the sex scenes in it, "Actually (the so-called same-sex passion scene) is no different from when filming with men. I am very happy to watch it. In the end, the effect is not full of provocative but very beautiful.” And Mara, the media didn't bother to ask her such questions.
should never be defined by others.
People call this girl with a pale face, cute dimples, and a football team at home as the rich second generation. She replied very seriously: "I grew up in the suburbs and went to public. A school is not a private aristocratic school. My father is just one of the 11 children of my grandfather, and in my generation there are more than forty grandchildren and grandchildren." She doesn't like rugby, but, "Of course, football means family Significant." In the longest tradition in Hollywood, when interviewed, the sexiest actresses always try to let interviewees know that when they were young, they were tomboys with no feminine characteristics, and those actresses who were famous for their elegance and acting skills. They always describe the images of their childhood troublemakers and even problem teenagers. And she calmly accepted the fact that she was flat-chested and shy, she did not argue, until now, people have begun to call her thin body "a copy of Audrey Hepburn".
She is a vegetarian, and her favorite dishes include cabbage spring rolls, yogurt jelly and eggplant with coconut milk. However, you never want to know what she eats for lunch, she will not answer such questions. Questions she will never answer include: the type of music she likes to listen to, her favorite movie, the director she most wants to work with—"People want to understand this because they try to define you through this", and she , Never be defined by others. A reporter asked her, how did you switch freely in various roles? She replied: "Never care what you look like in others' eyes."
According to some information, Mara's next movie may be "Castle in the Sky". That is a true story. The Canadian journalist Amanda Lindhout and her boyfriend as a photographer were kidnapped by terrorist organizations in Somalia. The kidnapper and the parents of the kidnapped person, the Canadian and Australian governments, have gone through long and arduous bargaining. , It took 15 months, and the two people were rescued. During the period, Amanda suffered from abuse and humiliation. She and her boyfriend tried to escape but were caught back. In this movie, Rooney will be imprisoned in a chair for most of the 15-month imprisonment period, just like it was on Halloween at the age of 4.
