Jodie Foster on "Nyad" and "True Detective: Night Country"

4 місяці тому

Two-time Oscar-winner Jodie Foster has been acting since she was three, but she has often contemplated leaving acting behind. Now, at age 61, she's starring as a detective facing a dark mystery in the new HBO series "True Detective: Night Country"; and as coach Bonnie Stoll opposite Annette Bening's endurance swimmer Diana Nyad in the Netflix sports drama "Nyad." Foster talks with correspondent Lee Cowan about being a "100% introvert," while also reaching a point in her career where she can, finally, relax.

There are celebrities. And then there are actors. Its a tribute to Foster's talent and integrity that she has chosen the latter route. Jodie Foster is one of the best.

@jwelch5742 4 місяці тому

Jodie Foster holds the distinction of being the youngest two-time Oscar winner and one of only two people to win multiple Oscars before the age of 30. Foster is also the only openly LGBTQ woman to win two Academy Awards for acting, although she was not publicly out until after both wins.

I’m 60 years old and Jodie has always been one those actresses that you are drawn to. I have always loved how strong she came across. Some of my favorite movies: Tom Sawyer, Napoleon & Samantha, Bugsy Malone, Freaky Friday, Taxi Driver, Maverick, Silence of the Lambs, Panic Room, Elysium, The Accused, Little man Tate and Contact. She is excellent in everything she does. I have always admired this amazing woman and will do so until the end. ❤

Next to M. Streep, she is the most complete actress of the last 40 years. She needs the Kennedy Center Honors, yesterday...... I'm from Germany and I'm a fan since I starting thinking. Every role she played, she made it outstanding plus her role as producer or director. No film with her get negativ critics or anything like this. And to reminde, 40 years ago the world wasn't so open as today in case of loving same sex. As an actress she would be on a black list regarding intresting projects and companies are afraid of losing potential cinema audiences and turnover.

I even loved how she was the first ever youngest person, to host Saturday Night Live, and hold that position, for 6 1/2 years, before Drew Barrymore at age 7, did so, too (and at that young, my goodness!). Jodie Foster, definetly makes history, by how she's living, and how she's still managing to find work, in starring in this new series, as a detective, like TSOTL. Good on ya, Jodie!

Now think of how many Hollywood actresses or actors say that for their acceptance speech. I'd never heard anyone say thst in their speech winning a Oscar.. respect her because when i saw her performance in Silence of the Lambs I knew it was in the top echlon of acting. I believed who she was on screen, and her character was like Ripley in Aliens, one of the few women heros in movies. I think most like and respect her cause she is not willing to let the public in her private life. It must be a little like Hannibal said in Silence about her...the world needs you( Clarice).

Jodie Foster is under appreciated as an actress. However I think in some ways, it’s because of herself. Being an introverted actress doesn’t seem to fit that type of career. She beat the odds in so many categories. Most childhood actors end up being total messes late in life for whatever reasons. Jodie has been able to navigate through that. Her longevity is certainly a testament to her acting ability. Much respect for her as a person and glad to see she continues on. Great Lady!
