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.

[@pasqualeperillo]

Yes.now.as.have.make.movies.really

[@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!

[@ariasijiali1689]

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.

[@vaskylark]

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.

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.

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.

@@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.

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...
