Amy Adams & Nicole Kidman | Actors on Actors - Full Conversation

[@MikePhoenix007]

Nicole is so measured and eloquent. Amy is so lively and energetic. Both are such incredible actors, two of the best in the game, yet both are so humble and kind. Absolute class.

[@frankoceanstanaccount7126]

No, no, I can feel when someone is faking it (believe me). But these women really mean what they say. Just by how they talk to each other and their facial expresions

[@elephantello1518]

Truth be told. They are both amazing

[@yelyint5620]

Still remember, during late 2000s, 'Nicole' was labeled as box-office poison and they said her career was over; Amy was mentioned as one-hit wonder for her OSCAR nomination for Junebug and they even commented that she can only play wide-eyed bubbly characters even though Enchanted was a big hit. To all the haters of the past, present, and future, 'Amy' and 'Nicole' are the most versatile, intelligent, incredibly talented, genuinely humble (even though they have massive star powers!), constantly hardworking actresses of their generation. It's such an inspiration to witness these ladies proving the haters' comments are all wrong not with words but via their bold choices and their impeccable performances throughout the years. You haters need to suck these facts up for the rest of your negativity-filled lives. Our Queens ('Nic' and 'Amy') still keep on shining and brighter than ever! We love you, Queens!

[@Nazaba09]

She’s still not a box office draw. Amy a little bit more.

[@yelyint5620]

@@Nazaba09 Nicole's movies have grossed more than $3 Billions at worldwide box office (both US and international) so far, dear, and that figure doesn't include the current box office numbers of Aquaman. It's pretty impressive for an actress who mostly stars in indie movies lately. So, you do the math. Btw, you're welcome.

[@Nazaba09]

Yel Yint when you consider how many movies she’s been in plus inflation, that’s really not that impressive. Stop pretending it is.

[@yelyint5620]

@@Nazaba09 If you consider monetary inflation, all the movies released in the 21st Century are all in the behind, dear hater. And you never mention about inflation when you first comment under my own freaking comment, by the way. Use the thing called 'brain' in your head; hope yours is functioning well. And if you really consider the monetary inflation, then Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable are the Queen and King of the Box Office. Do not ever say 'stop pretending' to someone who is holding the receipts. You can spread your hate anywhere you want but it's my great pleasure of exposing and educating a pathetic hater who wrote under my positive comment. Because at the end of the day, every cinephile knows you are nothing but another mistake of human race.

[@MrBuddybones]

My favorite performance of Nicole’s is still in “The Others.” She was amazingly good in that film. I can’t imagine any other actor playing that part.

[@vaskylark]

Ever see her in Dead Calm? I think it was her first movie and she was amazing in it! Back when she still had curly, curly hair.

[@belenheredia2024]

My ranking is: the others (probably her best movie too, timeless) dead calm (another good movie but so "80's thriller", breakout acting) to die for (great indie, remarkable acting) moulin rouge (I don't care even with faults is an iconic movie and performance, put musicals again on maps) rabbit hole (deeply sad but a true gem, top tier acting) birth (difficult but if you love her you will be mesmerized for her performance, the Opera scene..) and stoker (she needs to work with Park Chan Wook again, her "mother/daughter" monologue is A R T) not a movie but Celeste in the big little lies series is a top performance in "television" *She is in between my all time favorites* Guilty pleasure, far and away, days of thunder, practical magic even the pacemaker (doubtful Blockbusters) the paperboy (I can't decide if it was bad or good but I love her Pamela haha) OH! And eyes wide shut and the hours's acting are something special. You don't know if she is lead or supporting but whatever is she eats those roles and become a big part of these movies.

[@vaskylark]

@@belenheredia2024 Yeah loved her in Moulin Rouge. I've seen all the movies you mentioned and then some, like Far and Away, which she was good in but Tom Cruise so was not. I'm a big ASkarsgard fan too, so Big Little Lies was a no brainer with two of my faves in it.

[@belenheredia2024]

@@vaskylark oh edited my comment, far and away is a guilty pleasure too haha I like him but in my opinion he needs to find better roles.. like the Northman!!! I'm anxious about it! Sadly in this occasion they aren't in a "love" story bcuz they have chemistry!

[@thegalaxyrover]

two of the greatest actresses of our time

[@Maja942]

You can tell how they're just both naturally outstanding actors, with Amy trying to grapple with going too deep into a performance yet being unable to stop it anyhow, and Nicole diving into exactly that.. it's almost like Amy can't help her art and Nicole has a hunger for it. Or Adams trying to run from pain but being unable to hide it in her work, which is so alluring, and Kidman embracing it, but in kind of a self destructive way. Both these actresses have given performances that shook me to my core, especially the gritty stuff. Completely different personalities and coping mechanisms yet so brilliant in their own right... the interview was so captivating to watch. I felt like the most interesting part started when it ended :D I'd kill to see them work on a darker toned project together, their approaches colliding and pulling each other deeper. Preferably a mini series, not just a movie.

[@hocly22]

wow, both these women seem very honest. It's very cool to see Nicole Kidman talk about how she knows she's an "obedient girl" or someone who is a people pleaser. It's so refreshing to see someone as influential and idolized as Nicole talk about herself this way, really humanizes her and shows how celebrities are just people after all

As a female director, I love love LOVE the conversation at 20:00 about the difficulty of being a female director and the current sexism in the industry against female directors. We need strong women like this to fight for female storytelling. Film is such a powerful medium that influences culture and perception, and when you only have men behind the camera, people (including women) start believing that the story of women are less important and less interesting.

[@Real_SkyRipper]

bullshit, "female director" that's why people get piss off, you could have said "as a director" but no you had to state that you are female!, the only sexism that exists is the one woman create, you will never see a men say: male director, male actor, male doctor, etc.. woman are the ones that need to put gender first like it's more important or important at all, men have never gave a shit about gender they only care if you are good that's all.

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

@@Real_SkyRipper Have to agree.

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

Honey, stop whining and pulling gender card and just do your damn job without reminding us about your gender. Seriously. You are director at job, you are woman out of it. Most people don't care about your gender as long as you do your job well. Current sexism? Please. Last 10 years there have been more films with female leads than ever. Noone thinks that "female stories are less interesting" blah blah. Of course, there are chauvinistic assholes, but don't make it a rule when it's the exception. Just do your job, be a good director and stop this "feminism" baiting. More importantly, stop bringing gender into your job, and stop WHINING.

It actually doesn't make sense to me that there aren't more women directors since a director has to be able to multitask and women are better at that, by far, than men.

Kudos to whomever at Variety comes up with the pairings for this series!! 👑 I've yet to see one that didn't work, and in some instances (like this one and the Matthew McConaughey/Jeff Bridges episode) it feels like the participants are true soulmates (despite sometimes never having even met before). It's remarkable how well the format works, too. From a logistics standpoint you know there must be multiple cameras, a crew etc present out of shot, but the actors are generally so comfortable with each other, their discourse still ends up feeling really genuine? The absence of an intrusive Hollywood host/interviewer is especially appreciated, just lets the participants take their time & follow the random interesting things that spring to mind...

She did work with him twice and received Oscar nominations both times so I don't think she hates working with him. I think he was probably nice to her.

[@simonboccanegra3811]

I gather she had a good experience on The Fighter, but then his behavior was "horrendous" to her on American Hustle (source: 2016 GQ interview). She cried almost every day. She said no matter how successful the film was, or how well her performance was received, the verbal abuse was not something she was okay with. "It really taught me how to separate work and home. Because I was like, I cannot bring this experience home with me to my daughter." Lily Tomlin has worked with Russell more than once too, and of course there was the famous leaked video of him screaming at her, calling her the C-word. At least publicly, she made nice; she said she still adores him and would work with him again. So it's an individual thing. But Russell's reputation, both as a good director and as a brutal screamer on set, is well earned.
