DP/30: Carol, Cate Blanchett

Cate Blanchett is pretty much the epitome of having it all. Actor, theater impresario (along with her husband), mother of 4, 2-time Oscar- winning movie star. She sat down with David Poland, just a few hours off a plane from Australia to talk about her newest film, Carol, and her remarkable life.

Cate's voice makes my knees weak.

[@titaa56]

Yes indeed! Her voice and countenance is like an ear and sight -gasm for me ;)

"God, I'm talking a lot. Shut me up." Cate, are you kidding? It's been very interesting hearing your thoughts on different processes in acting and filmmaking and trends, and some of the big social topics of the day.

[@tytoalba6573]

I learn so many things whenever I listen to Cate's interviews. She uses so many words that I've rarely heard in casual conversation. On top of that, she often talks about the role of fear in her life and it amazes me that she can be so candid about it. It's slowly inspiring me to take more risks, or bigger risks.

[@mlw9195]

I will admit I do enjoy her extensive vocabulary. It entices me to grow my own vocabulary 😅

[@cynthiastrain2766]

how could anyone, man or woman, NOT fall in love with Cate Blanchett??? She is the sexiest woman I've seen in a ages, and in this movie she doesn't hold back anything.

[@robinriebsomer4607]

When I watched "Carol", the most powerful moment for me was when the character Carol Aird told they attorneys that she would not live against her own grain and made the vulnerable request that she be allowed to visit with her daughter even if it had to be supervised.

[@destroyermaker]

Cate Blanchett is the epitome of grace.

[@elainelotcpeich]

I can listen to her for hours! Mesmerizing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@roloug95]

I swear she gets more beautiful with age wtf

[@ffinixs]

Damn she's so intelligent, insightful, funny and warm. Very inspirational. Another fantastic interview, David Poland!

[@cooperdogable]

What an extraordinarily candid intelligent interview! Cate is without question the most articulate actor alive. What I find fascinating about her beauty, which is boundless in it's immensity, is that she grows more beautiful as she ages. This fact speaks to how one sees and defines beauty. Her radiant intellect continues to evolve in ways that are so deeply sensitive. I had the great fortune to see her live in "Street Car Named Desire," and seeing her on stage gives one insight into what is most important to her. Story telling with a live audience is what thrills her. She manages to bring her stage sensibility to the screen in the way she collaborates with all of the players in film making. She is for me the most interesting actor living today.

[@mlw9195]

I agee that she looks better as she ages, she in this interview is more attractive than in Lord of the Rings

[@cassiosborge]

this woman is exquisitely talented in so many ways... the more she speaks the more I admire her. She's patently committed to acting and making life through movies

[@Jacks_here]

Kate is really at her peak now and you can feel slight frustration on these publicity tours but she does it as she should with patience and grace because it is part of her job but she does make sure nobody steps on her toes and that they know who's in charge. She always corrects assumptions very well and very direct way.

[@nikcaras4623]

+jack cole well said!

[@rdar1213]

You know my drama techer told me the other day a true artist is a person who doesn't know wht he'll do tomorrow and where they day will lead. I don't think I've ever heard of someone who has more artistic spirit than Cate. It was a fantastic interview thank you so much for making it!

Gosh... she's so beautiful.

[@ioanatiberian6565]

Thank God there are still normal, intelligent people out there, to interview a great ARTIST like she is !

[@beatrizcolon4347]

Very engaging & friendly Actress. Met her in New York, down to earth with her Fans. It was 12:30 in the Morning when she came out after The Present on Broadway & signed Autographs. I'll always remember it was 30 degrees. I'll always pay to see her.

[@yuts568]

I could listen to Cate’s voice all day😌 oh and, she’s so gorgeous!❤️

[@alexdevon2588]

What a brilliant, intelligent, fascinating human being, Kate is. A most brilliant actress too. The only one I find of the same stature as Bette Davis. So unforgettable as a one of a kind, Star. As an actress, there is no one better today, as a human being, wish there were more like her, this world would be a much better place, I must say!

[@83annak]

Fantastic interview! Thank you. It was insightful, done in a calm atmosphere and respectful in regard to the actress and her work, but still funny and very interesting on many different levels. That's how you do a balanced interview. What a charming and sophisticated woman Cate Blanchett is. I could listen to her for hours.

[@warriorbard]

She is wickedly funny and absurdly intelligent. What I wouldn't give to be able to sneak a peak inside her mind - it must be an absolutely fascinating place.

[@scarlett8445]

It's at the very end 28:18 where she says you're very welcome... i don't know why but i have it on repeat

Her eyes and her voice at 2:18 "You're very welcome"... so lovely and mesmerizing...

[@edwardhitten2678]

Wonderful person, so much to learn from her. I love when she said something like "the pride preceeds the fall", the idiot down the cliff. Good job David. Your way of talking to them feel natural, maybe not the perfect academy diction but that's nothing, it's you. The mood is very nice. Thanks for all that.

[@rubbersoul8334]

Fantastic interview. Also, Cate has the most extraordinary eyes.

Great interview as always.. And Cate being the smart, funny and graceful personality that she is... I am all smiles.

[@euphoriaz870]

[@Ad_Astra2023]

The interview itself contains quite profound conversations all the way through but from time to time, the interviewer sounds a bit judgemental and pushy in a way. Cate is brilliantly patient with the situation and seems really honest and down to earth.

[@NotAnotherKuromi]

I concur, I love how she speaks up if she disagrees, when talking to anyone.

Cate Blanchett is Ethereal Being and Mind Blowing Actress.

[@MultiKarola]

just saw it ! im not sure what to think about this film? but Cate always on top form

[@hbcmaria914]

Love the idea of the interview and I enjoy Cate talking like this, however I'm not a fan of the guy she's talking to. There's just something about his transitions, it's not very smooth.

[@dp30]

+isabellamaria914 Yes. It's called having a conversation, not a prearranged set of questions. That's what I do. Not to everyone's taste.

[@michelmoutinho]

I find it very enjoyable. And apparently Cate enjoyed it as well. It's very refreshing to be asked a question based on an answer you just gave. It's not only smarter, but you feel like the interviewer is actually paying attention to what you're saying.

[@hbcmaria914]

+DP/30: The Oral History Of Hollywood I'm not saying that "having a conversation" is bad. I'm just saying I thought each transition seemed awkward.

[@theempire00]

+isabellamaria914 Really? Could you point out a specific example?

[@nguyea09]

+isabellamaria914 Apologies if this isn't a TMZ interview with set questions about brand she's wearing, whether she did pranks on her co-stars etc;

[@kathleensilva2414]

Cate is the most fascinating speaker.The best and most naturally beautiful actress in the world.

[@jananiperera1374]

Hi to anyone who crosses their road with mine while watching Cate's interviews on loop😌💌

[@anairenemartinez165]

Queen Cate, Her Majesty. I hope your Ocean movie does not stink

[@savedfaves]

Kate is worth $45M (according to some website). If she was a man she'd be worth well over $100M by now.

[@Ibrahim-bv6rv]

savedfaves she is worth 90M according to other websites it kinda differs according to different sites, I think the reason why actress don’t make as much money as actors is because the movies where the big money is at are action/superhero movies, which usually has male leads, just a theory not sure.

[@elart-istacallejero8920]

Incredible but true. A patriarchal world. The difference must be in the brain not in virile organ. Cate with a Meryl Streep and so many others women not only on the artistic field but also human that have long been worth what they weigh, but in DIAMONDS!!

GOAT

[@milahoot8168]

If Carol has not met Therese that day. She might have just took her life along the way. The things she undergone and the stress she's under and that her only friend she can share her worries with is also one of the things that are stressing because of her husband's jealousy. Her inner conflicts on following what the norm is and wanting to spend her life with her child or to be herself and become happy and accept who she really is is a huge burden for a person. 12:49

[@titaa56]

I feel like I'm listening to what should be our President of the US..and all the world. Her voice is commanding and sultry! She's the real deal guys! This lady is simply delicious! So charming and intelligent to say the least! Oh my yummy!! Nom nom nom..her us and is a very lucky man!
