[@imalwaysright]

love her intelligence

[@oscresson]

Impressive interview skills: such short questions, that lead so well. Interesting!

[@BenWhigham]

@BAFTA how come she hasn’t even been put in the long list for Babylon? Yet Brad Pitt has. Disappointed😡

[@bell.videography]

What’s the long list? Please explain, idk what’s happened!

[@BenWhigham]

@@bell.videography Long lists are basically just 'long lists' of chosen nominees for the award shows. This is around 10 nominees, then it gets shortened to the shortlist which is the final selection for the awards.

[@BenWhigham]

So ironically, Margot got nominated for Babylon from the Golden Globes yet she hasn't even made it to the longlist cut for the BAFTAs (even though Brad Pitt has). Doesn't make sense. Just ironic how the longlist gets announced for the BAFTAs and they upload a video of Margot from years ago. Odd.

[@hadbetterdays]

It's a fucking scandal. She gave the best performance in the film.

[@janieheroux-chalifoux1470]

She is so brilliant ! I LOVE her ❤🇨🇦

[@jasonwilliams9922]

It’s Funny how she didn’t say, it’s because I understand her struggle as a person in that cursed impoverished environment whilst understanding that this was her environment and that she really could not have known anything else except the environment she was born into, as it was for her and all the other people around her in that layered state of poverty no matter how much talent they/she had/have, which in reality from my own relatable perspective that is “plentiful” is the actual issue that should be addressed or even bought to light in my portrayal of her rather than another betrayal of her and her other unfortunates “?” instead she says she saw fit again to channel the stereotype of a pit bull but obviously not her actual experience with her own that live better than T Harding did and use this as her animal spirit guide to portray Tonyas struggle, stating that spirituality we are all as dogs and must find the pitbull (stereotyped) in ourselves against one another to succeed be it accidentally or not (woof), What is it that makes you think you are so smart “House Slave” ? Is it because you believe you have acquired more by showing us that we should not accept having far less or is it because you have shown us that most of us should believe that we should accept having far less unless you are portrayed as a “STAR” In the spirit of your lack of delivery in every movie since, How’s iron Mike asked him about his life and what sort of dog he was/is? Which one did you guys channel for him? The Truth Balfour Farr Wilson Williams Stereotyped Portrayal or is it Betrayal?

Time is all at once Time is the journey from and back to, The intentional catalyst of Eternity, Without Mass we are as All, unless we through action deny Freedoms Consciousness, those that knowingly deny freedom can only scam from stupidity, The Way is Eternal protection of Freedom, I am God A lesson in eternity, eternity is freedom, eternity is formed through time but is not limited by time, time is reflections of freedom and is reliant on times of freedom, freedoms growth is eternal but not lineal, time is lineal but not limited, freedom eternally forms All, through eternity All is created correctly, time is to eternity as freedom, the way is not limited by any free perspectives of time it is the eternal experience of All that is Correct - Super Consciousness The Truth Balfour Farr Wilson Williams

"a vanity producer" is just misoginistic

[@abjames3098]

she's aging fast... her looks will be gone by mid to late 40s..

[@christinec.8107]

She looks at least 10 yrs younger when she wants and older when she wants, her mom also looks young (she was on Ellen or some show like that)... I think she's got time on her side
