Bella Baxter, the delicious and bold creature that Emma Stone gave birth to and which could lead to an Oscar

Emma Stone ensures that the film poor creaturessurreal satire between fantasy and science fiction which has just won the Golden Lion at the latest Venice Film Festival, is a romantic comedy, a “romantic comedy”.

That’s a pretty bold assessment of yours, but you have a way to defend it. “It’s the story of a woman in love with life, more than with a person,” says the actress just won a Golden Globe this past Sunday for playing him, and he’ll get another chance at the Critics Choice Awards this Sunday.

We will soon know if the path will take her to the Oscars; She had already won one in 2016 for The The Earth.

The role of his life

“No one but you could have played Bella Baxter,” her friend Bradley Cooper praised her.

Emma Stone knows it is the role of her life, the most challenging to date, to recreate it a woman brought back to life by a mad scientist by inserting a child’s brain.

In two hours it will have to show Bella’s evolution from the moment she begins to take her first awkward steps and formulate the occasional word. “Ba Ba” in her case, dedicated to her father figure, Godwin, (Willem Dafoe), the doctor who resuscitated her.

Eventually she will have learned to read and be an intellectual, further irritating the male ego of the Victorian era and a libertine lawyer (Mark Ruffalo) who drives mad with his free will.

Beauty does not need men to control or maintain it; Frankenstein’s girlfriend is a feminist.

He has four films with Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos. For the previous one, The favourite, ended up receiving an Oscar nomination. She knows she is cared for, even if this time she was lucky with a protagonist who, in her desire to explore the world, without prejudice or shame, she spends her time naked and has wholesale sex.

The director uses a system whereby in those scenes only he, the director of photography – “who sees me like a lamp” – and the actress are present. Additionally, an intimacy scene coordinator was used.

“I love Bella, her mind is completely open, she discovers sex and immediately understands that sex and power go hand in hand. But all she really wants is to do something good in the world,” Emma said.

Louise, his other creature

The first thing Emma Stone did when she received the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Comedy was dedicate it to her husband. “I want to start with you, thank you for everything”, she said to Dave McCary, whom she met in 2016 on the famous program Saturday evening livewhen she was a guest star and he was a screenwriter.

In 2021, their daughter Louise was born. She knows that her family’s support is invaluable when she has to travel a lot, and in this case she went to Budapest, Hungary, where the sets were set up that took her through London, Lisbon and Paris, a mix of technological futurism and 1930s. .

There they spent several days rehearsing theatrical games, with their eyes covered, learning to trust each other, a technique they appreciate.

She began her career as a children’s theater actress and knows the Stanislavski Method. As a teenager she moved from Arizona to Los Angeles. There she met her friend Taylor Swift 20 years ago, when they both attended an awards ceremony, The Young Hollywood Awards, where they were highlighted with good vision as promises of the future.

Actress and producer

Like Margot Robbie with her Barbieas Natalie Portman in The secrets of a scandal, Emma Stone is also a producer of her film. At 35 he has learned that this gives him much more control.

“I’m grateful to continue to try new things and have the opportunity to make decisions about my work as an actress,” she commented in January at the Palm Springs Film Festival, when her co-stars presented her with the Award of Merit.

Producer Emma Stone likes this Poor creatures To be an inspiring story of women’s liberation. The fact that there are several with this goal in the competition this year also seems very motivating.
