Рет қаралды 631,097
Жыл бұрынJudy Blume's beloved coming-of-age story is finally reaching the screen, in a movie adaptation introducing Abby Ryder Fortson as Margaret and Academy Award-nominee Rachel McAdams as her mother. Correspondent Tracy Smith talks with real-life mom McAdams about bursting into fame with "Mean Girls" and "The Notebook," and then hitting pause on starring roles; and why she's back in the long-awaited film of "Are You There God?

I know! She was amazing in all of her movies especially the Notebook. The movie was a bit cheesy but it was her acting in those emotional scenes that made it so authentic and real.
@drpemium333 Жыл бұрын
@@LNatureblush Fully agree! And the “cheesiness” of “The Notebook” is totally because of the plot line with the older age life of the main characters, which is why when I rewatch this movie (and I’ve done it many times) I skip the scenes in the “present time” and watch only the “youth time” line of plot with Rachel and Ryan. They’re just really incredible, both of them!

Rachel is just so incredible! She’s very much unlike other Hollywood stars as she’s so private but also so real. She takes into account the general rules of the cinema industry, but at the same time she absolutely establishes her own ones and gently follows them without offending anyone, but still keeping quite a bit of insularity and self-sufficiency. It’s SO admirable! ❤

The book should be banned on the sexual content by the Right and on the lack of wokeness by the Left because Judy Bloom also wrote a book about a peeping Tom ("Then Again Maybe I Won't). It's true - it was a teenage boy getting off on staring at a girl's bumblies though the window with a pair of binoculars. Just Romeo and juliet because Shakespeare was clean with that.

Like Brad Pitt, they have the guts to play against their heartthrob looks. Family Stone and Lucky Ones and even some blonde roles like True Detective and Southpaw. He produced TTW oddly enough. He was originally in the Russell Crowe role in State of Play but dropped out because of script differences and it was during the writer's strike. Charlize Theron also comes to mind.

Always liked her but she grabbed my heart in The Family Stone, which is absolutely one of my favorite movies, especially when feeling depression setting in around Christmas time, or during a long, bleak winter. Love so many of these actors and they all do great here (Craig T. Nelson and Luke Wilson getting high is perfection!) but Rachel is what I think about most when I think of this movie - which is a huge tearjerker for me but the ending leaves me hopeful. The scene where Diane Keaton says to Rachel "That's you and me, kid" (or whatever the exact words are) just nails me every single time...

Love Rachel. Lost count on how many times I watched The Notebook. Great cast along side her too. A couple of years after the movie was released I was in NYC making a dash for the 42nd St shuttle. The doors slid closed and I made it to a seat. The train car had only one other passenger sitting diagonally across from me. Sitting there, impeccably dressed, looking radiant, was Joan Allen. It caught me off guard how luminous she was. A great energy.
