I've been a fan of Natalie's since Leon (The Professional). She's hot talent, gorgeous, and apparently speaks like five languages.
She was good in the overlooked Garden State, which was made by Scrubs star Zach Braff.
Talking about gorgeous, here's Johnny Depp.
And Bruce Willis too, very funny here.
I first noticed her in "Heat", where she played a chronically depressed, mardy teenager in a broken home. I wondered if she could do anything else, and so didn't know how to rate her talent.
ReplyDeleteThen I saw Star Wars and wrote her off as barely capable, but then seeing Ewan McGregor in the same series also act like a lobotomized muppet, I decided that was no way to judge her either.
Finally I decided to try some of the newer Luc Besson films, after enjoying his older works, and I tried Leon. Yup in that this sassy young lady could act. Though her impersonation of Marilyn was disturbing.
Still hasn't made me rush out and watch "The Other Boleyn Girl".
Good points all.
ReplyDeleteDon't watch "Anywhere but Here". Mother and daughter arguing for two hours, goody.
On the subject of Besson -
ReplyDeleteMilla Jovovich
Was great in Fifth Element, and endearing in "The Messenger - The Story of Joan of Arc". She was hot and action packed in "Resident Evil" series, but I found that to be a bloody, zombie Mad Max wannabe.

ReplyDeleteShe was adequate in The Professional, no more.
Just watched the interviews. Hmm, 10lb Yorky, sounds tasty.
ReplyDeleteYorkshire pudding is a great dish, savory with gravy, or sweet with golden syrup.
