Fragile I believe is the word.

@@raffafan not quite. She is a puzzling individual, she doesn't necessarily scream fragile or vulnerable to me. I've seen her in two other films other than Gone Girl and that's the same thing that came to mind.. she's hard to read. She has that piercing look as if she's looking through you and you don't really know if she wants to hurt you or likes you.

She has real depth, is extremely intelligent yet has humility to acknowledge her limitations. So in trying to understand her, one need be watchful of ones own perception. Formidable, in an entirely positive light, is what she is, I think.

SheWhale Still upset that she didn’t win.

She's part of the CIA and Scientology's human trafficking ring that's brainwashing the population as part of MK Ultra.

It's an act

She seems like a nice lady, but graceful is the exact opposite description that came to mind for me. I'd say she's very rigid, professional, and formal, which isn't really a problem. She just doesn't seem relaxed to me.

itsinmynamechap Rigid would fall under an antonym of graceful.

jed52 She doesn't seen rigid, more composed and thoughtful, she doesn't seem tense at all

Jeffery Lebowski fuck you i hadn't seen the film yet

But yeah no doubt she IS mysterious. I haven't seen gone girl yet and no comparisons to Amy but I've followed rosamund for nearly a decade and I've realized that she is just... mysterious is the word. She's lovely, but there's something hidden within her that just seems to be wanting to be unleashed or something. I can't sort it out. Still lovely though.

Nope, she's even better than kate Blanchett. Such an underrated actor before, she deserves her sucess now.

You must be out of your mind. Crazy?

Remember that movie :-) it was good

You really need to see Barney's Version. It's an epic sweeping movie and Rosamund Pike is brilliant in it.

Watch Barney's Version! Another great performance by her! Also stars Paul Giamatti and Dustin Hoffman! Was a very funny and thoughtful film.

Joe Smith i rented Barney's Version your right she was great in it

itsinmynamechap yeah i'll rent that as well i do like period pieces

Philip Moore It's not technically a period piece, but it does cover Barney's life from about the 1970s to 2000s (can't remember exactly). Minnie Driver and Dustin Hoffman are also great in the movie. If you get a chance, read the novel by Mordicai Richler. It's even better.

She's in Edgar Wright's The Worlds End. It's a sci-fi, comedy.

She was also in the Steve Martin comedy The Big Year. Her character wasn't funny but she showed (again) she can do American accents very well. She's been in other comedies like Johnny English.

Johnny English 2

Barney's Version is also a great, underrated dark comedy she is in.

AcademyAwardsPerson perfect timing with the zoom

Early reviews of the movie were based on an idea of a sane adult woman reclaiming her life. I guess it takes maturity and a lifelong observation of human behavior to recognize the traits of psychopath

@@irene2327 I can give you a really late review. I found this movie to be one of the greatest love stories I've seen , ever. Unironically. It really fucked me up for a good while after seeing it in 2014. She really did kill for her husband. I've never seen such an intense and complex female character in a movie , book or anything really. In this movie she presents an absurd amount of faces/sides to her. We see the sparkly eyes of a young and smart girl when she meets her future husband at the party. Then we see some semblance of a high level career she achieves(regardless of the dynamic of her parents). We see a beautiful loving romantic wife very much in love with her husband , fooling around in public. You then get to see her as a woman in the real world, real life dynamics of adulthood with disappointments , a life crisis , a marriage crisis. I'm already bored of typing this on my phone and I haven't really got to peel two layers of this onion. In the big twist of the movie, we learn that what we've seen up to that point is a fabrication, her writing the journal for the police to find. This is where it gets complicated. I dont actually see it that way. Fincher does it this way. He mixes reality with her embellished journal and that is the product we get to see. Her personal monologues from that part onward are riveting to watch. We see a much more complicated individual, trying to hustle and grift her way to fulfilment and happiness. She appears to be tremendously focused and motivated to achieve her state of fulfilment. She is a scary psychopath in one angle but still a vulnerable woman struggling against the meat grinder of life, the next. Not to be overlooked is the fact that she is contemplating suicide, reminding us yet again that her character is something more than just a vain sociopath . There is a lot of humanity underneath all that stunning bravado of hers. When she gets grifted by those two punks my heart sinks. That's the moment when I started cheering for her unapologetically. You have to sympathize with her at that point. It clicked for me. Even if you may be this devilishly intelligent creature , sociopath as people like to call her, the big chaos of life still alters her hard worked meticulously planned path. By this point half a day passed and I'm resuming this rambling KZfaq comment of mine intermittently. That's how taken I am by rewatching this movie last night. I don't know if Rosamund Pike did this to me and I'm just having a stupid crush or what but ... Damn..

Yyyyuuuuuupp!! Absolutely 200%. Amber Heard type through & through.

Have you every heard British people speak English? That's how they speak!! She isn't posh!

Have you actually BEEN to England? I have. I have relatives who live in the North. They don't speak like this. No one I have ever met there spoke in an accent that refined. A few waiters and tour guides in London, maybe. But that's probably affected.

Yes, I LIVE in England!! A large number of people speak like that and no one accuses them of being posh! Have you heard Benedict Cumberbatch??

Rosamund's accent is relatively posh, but I wouldn't say more posh than the Queen's (or anyone in the Royal family). It's not any more posh than say, Emma Thompson's. Rosamund doesn't sound like a Royal, she sounds more like a Professor at Cambridge University.

It's called Received Pronunciation. Some Brits have it, some have regional accents.

Thanks for noting the typo. Truly. Fixed now.

No problem. Hate to be THAT person. Thanks for all the quality interviews!

Does have something of a yellowish tint to it.

Maybe the makeup person used a warm foundation on her, and cool would have been better for her. (Some makeup experts seem to insist that any color can be used on anybody,.,I don't know...)

Lol if you compare the yellow of her face to the pink of her hands it’s waaaay worse

raffafan Martha Stewart! Yes, the gentle blonde hairstyle...

***** Their early work was a little too 'new wave' for my taste, but when Sports came out in '83 I really think they came into their own, commercially and artistically.

Batman The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

14145 is the year (2014) and the number of the interview this year (145). The other number, recently added, is the overall count of DP/30 interviews. This was our 1126th.

for a while, I numbered them... now i just date them

@@arthurwhitest There are more than 2000. I am surprised that Lily Cole isn't up... she is with Ms. Gilliam. I will look for it and try to post soon.

She is English!

It does affect both gender differently in the industry you know

Leonardo de Almeida In what way?

She's 7 months pregnant. And she had an infant/toddler on set during the making of Gone Girl. I promise to ask any man who is working through an infant and who is about to drop another at the time of a film's release about this... and actually, I think I have a couple times. I don't think I have brought up children as an issue with an actress more than a couple times in the 1100+ DP/30 interviews.

DP/30 Great answer, thanks.

+sollochs oh my god, u ppl make my blood boil. srsly. the fkin political correctness nowadays is pathetic enough but aparently u cant even ask a woman about their children anymore without being sexist???! holy christ. the world really goes downhill.

What on earth do you mean? the Beatles sound english to me when they sing

the beatles dont sound american when they sing your youtube name fits for this conversation you don't know what your talking about some english bands sound american but the beatles don't

As someone who owns the entire Beatles discography, I can come forth and tell you that The Beatles do NOT sing in American.

***** That's ridiculous they use american accented words throughout their recording career. Here's one to start you with "Can't buy me love" . When they speak they say 'carnt' when they sing they sing 'cant' in american accent. There are hundreds of examples like that.

***** You don't know what you're talking about, do you?

Why? Ben Affleck is awesome actor and person.
