In 1996, Emma Thompson gave one of the most memorable acceptance speeches in the history of the Golden Globes — but it was not for one of her legendary acting performances. Yes, the ten-time Golden Globe nominee, who won a Best Actress – Drama statuette in 1993 for Howards End, was nominated for Best Actress that night for her work in Sense and Sensibility, but she lost to Casino’s Sharon Stone.

Golden Globes: Nominees - Style - Best Actress - Motion Picture - Musical/Comedy - This category is not only filled with talented actresses but also with huge personalities.  First up is Anya Taylor-Joy (The Menu) whose choices on screen are as diverse as her red carpet style.

Emma Thompson, two times Golden Globe winner out of ten nominations, spoke to the journalists of the Hollywood Foreign Press in 1998 about Primary Colors directed by Mike Nichols, where she played a political wife modeled after Hillary Clinton opposite John Travolta as Bill Clinton. The film is about the 1992 Presidential campaign, but the actress also addressed the 1998 impeachment trial that was explored in the 2021 series Impeachment: American Crime Story.

Multi-award-winning actress Emma Thompson, who stars in Good Luck to You, Leo Grande, joins Scottish actress and filmmaker Karen Gillan, who takes on the lead in Dual, for the virtual Sundance Film Festival Cinema Café series.   There’s a common thread between the two disparate films about socially awkward women who pay for unusual services.

It feels like a play, but it’s not. It makes you laugh, but it isn’t just funny.

Thanks to the loud-and-clear, stronger-than-expected performance of A Quiet Place Part II, combined with the solid showing of Cruella, the recent Memorial Day weekend buoyed hopes that moviegoing attendance is indeed back with a vengeance. With the one-two punch of John Krasinski’s sequel to his 2018 horror hit and Emma Stone’s origin story of the puppy-hating villainess, it was the first weekend in over a year when the North American box office ticket sales exceeded $100 million.

Emma Thompson was interviewed numerous times by the journalists of the Hollywood Foreign Press. This is what she said in 1997 about her mother, actress Phyllida Law, her costar in The Winter Guest directed by Alan Rickman.

Her big-screen credits include box office smash Junior, holiday perennial Love Actually, the Nanny McPhee movies (for which she also wrote the screenplays), as well as such under-appreciated curiosities as The Tall Guy and The Love Punch, but Emma Thompson’s comedic prowess is a lesson that seemingly needs to be rediscovered every several years. Perhaps it’s a function of the exquisitely crafted dramas which served as her introduction to many viewers – movies like Henry V, Dead Again, Howards End, and The Remains of the Day, the latter two resulting in the first two of her ten Golden Globe nominations.

In the upcoming Amazon Studios comedy Late Night, Emma Thompson plays a first-ever, longest-running female host of a late night talk show, Katherine Newbury. After years of success, with ratings sagging, she was put on notice by the network that she may lose her show.
