Why We Love Tilda Swinton
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 ноя 2018
- When it comes down to onscreen presence, I don’t think anyone is more fascinating than Tilda Swinton.
The Academy Award-winning actress has quite the resume when it comes to working with acclaimed directors. Swinton has collaborated with Danny Boyle, Cameron Crowe, Spike Jonze, Luca Guadagnino, Jim Jarmusch, Bong Joon-ho, Lynne Ramsay, The Coen Brothers, Wes Anderson, and David Fincher.
But Swinton is surely best known for being transformative. Let’s just take a few seconds to go through some of Swinton’s films and marvel at the fact that these characters are somehow played by the same actress.
They are very nice! And very just and merciful.
You’re a man looking at the world through a keyhole and you’ve spent your whole life trying to widen that keyhole.
Something’s come up at work and I’m gonna have to leave you alone a little more than I would like.
You know, the clothes, the telephones, the trains…
I fear this may be the last time we ever see each other.
Why on earth would that be the case?
Well, I can’t put it into words, but I feel it.
Swinton seems to be drawn to roles that allow her to fully disappear. To the point that we may not even recognize her if we blindly enter a film. In fact, I remember watching Snowpiercer and The Grand Budapest Hotel without any prior knowledge. It wasn’t until the end credits that I realized Swinton was portraying these characters.
And Swinton is fully aware of things like this.. Take the 2018 remake of Suspiria where she plays three different characters, but is only billed for playing two. Under hours of make up and prosthetics, Swinton wanted to play the elderly Dr. Klemperer in secret, going as far to create a fake actor that she claimed portrayed him.
You’re Madame Blanc.
I play Madame Blanc, yes.
And I assumed that you played Dr. Klemperer.
As you will see from the credits and all the posters, Dr. Klemperer is played by Lutz Embersdorf, who sent a message that I read just now.
Swinton thrives off her air of unusual mystery. This is reflected in the roles that she takes on. Everything from a rocker vampire, to a psychic pug.
It may snow tonight.
Really? Thank you very much. Wow.
To whom it may concern.
She sees the future.
In fact, her mere presence in a film is enough to lend a rather unique tone. Even if her role is rather straightforward, her pre-established persona lends a certain abnormal quality to her scenes.
Of course your subconscious can always play tricks on you. The subconscious is a very powerful thing.
When Swinton isn’t pulling off outlandish transformations, filmmakers still tend to throw her a bit of a curveball, forcing her to use her mystifying skillset.
The wrinkle can be as simple as playing multiple roles like in Hail, Caesar!, but often, it’s much more complex.
In A Bigger Splash, she plays a rockstar who is recovering from vocal surgery, leaving her almost voiceless.
You can’t talk or won’t?
Therefore, Swinton is forced to act with merely through whispers and expressiveness.
I will always be grateful to you.
In We Need to Talk About Kevin, Swinton plays one character, but she is essentially playing two different roles. There is the mother in the flashbacks and the mother in present day. The mother in the flashbacks is struggling, but there are glints of hope and happiness. We can see this in the way she carries herself or even just by observing her eyes. There is life in them.
But in present day, after a devastating tragedy, she is a shell of her former self. She walks with caution and uneasiness. Her eyes are vacant and hollow. She is dead inside.
Even when Swinton isn’t being transformative, she still applies her unmatched transformative abilities. And that’s why she is one of the most unique and fascinating talents in Hollywood.
Swinton would be a perfect cast in a Bowie biopic
Yasssss!!!!!
Or a Dr Who.
Was just thinking that.
@Wintermute But she has wonderfully portray man in film before, and she's was unclockable. Her talent transcends gender barriers
if kate blanchett played bob dylan then why cant tilda play david? it’s a perfect match, ur just boring
Weirdly enough, Constantine has her in a role that embodies that so well. She plays an angel, completely androgynous, like the biblical angels, and if you don't know her before watching the film, you'll be extremely confused
Clem J brilliant as Gabriel .she's like a Botticelli angel
That role was what sealed the deal for me and really made me want to research her work more. What an incredible talent.
That’s the first film I saw her in and I was so intrigued. Her portrayal of Gabriel was the most memorable part of the film for me.
Clem J that role made me get obsessed with her and then the snowpiercer acting. After that I watched everything tilda.!!!
@@fufufuaru Same. That was also the first film i saw her appear in. Since then, seeing her appear in films felt like a treat.
Tilda Swinton is a force of nature. Her role(s) in Suspiria only serve to validate that fact.
Ditto.
It was obviously Tilda Swinton as the old man in every single shot and was super distracting. Not just make-up, but the acting was terrible. It was as if somebody who wanted to mock a man performed an old-man impression.
She did so much with her role in The Bigger Splash, and with barely any dialogue (Ralph more than made up for that!) but in We Need to Talk About Kevin, she was sensational.
I am also partial to Only Lovers Left Alive - both the film and her character.
..when I was younger I just found her odd, but now she's a favourite.
I’m embarrassed to say that I haven’t seen her in anything other than Narnia, and she is amazing in that. I was able to appreciate her talent at an early age. She’s terrifying and magnetic at the same time in the film
You should try "We Need To Talk About Kevin" and "Constantine" if you're not underage tho.
Benazir Margaretha Farhana we need to talk about Kevin will always hunt me
@@dv4975 agree and it was definitely one of the best movie i've ever watch. Both Ezra and Tilda killing it!
@Natalia
Saaame. I actually only know her name because Doctor Strange. But I remember I love and hate the Ice Queen so much in Narnia when I was (?) a kid.
Exactllyyyyy am feeling so dumb I could not recollect her at all in Dr Strange or any other movie
One of the most beautiful and yet handsome individuals in the world. Always have had a crush on her
Same, and ive never been embarrassed saying that.
She reminds me of those Egyptian cats
@@abril443 there's a REASON for that too. I'll leave it at that.
@@jamesshaw3230 do tell , please ....
Me too!!!!!
You missed a huge opportunity to make your point unarguable by not showing her as Gabriel in Constantine.
Yes
Also, no mention of her Oscar winning role as Karen in Michael Clayton.
@ɮօʊռċɛ օʄʄ luvin it too
@@truthlight2816 What? she wasn't.
@@AlexTapisevic sorry
Damn i just realized her voice and her accent change each character she portray has its own quirk
I would love to see a movie with Swinton and Joaquin Phoenix together.
The academy would have to shut down
omg yes!
Holy shittt I'd pay so much money for that
Get Christian Bale in there too. The man ruins his body just to “fit” roles better
@@gameinsane4718 And maybe some Tom Hardy too
Swinton, Blanchet and Chastain are the best actress out there
Amy Adams too
and Tatiana Maslany
And Clair Foy too........We could go on :)
Don't forget Natalie Portman
Ullmann, Redgrave, Swinton, Rowlands, Foster, Spacek, Blanchett, Adams, Fanning (Elle, of course), Pike, Spencer wipe the floor with idiot chastain. Chastain would be **NOTHING** if it weren't for the Great **Mr. Terrence Malick** , the Great **Ms. Liv Ullmann** and **The Tree Of Life** and **Miss Julie** .
Her portrayal of the Archangel Gabriel in Constantine never fails to amaze me.
Isn't she stunning in that? When I was younger I thought she was Male and found her very attractive. Still do, even knowing she is female.
I love how she is so well loved but not overly well known. Affords her some privacy in the Hollywood world but she is recognized for her skill. She's like a person out of time.
She's one of the best actresses ever set foot on the planet. I will always reinvindicate her underrated role in Julia, harrowing performance.
I just watched Julia for thr 1st time the other day and again I was completely blown away
I barely even care about Tilda Swinton as an actress...I care about Tilda Swinton as a phenomenon.
I want to see her play Bowie the way Cate Blanchett played Dylan
Y E S. Y E S. Y E S.
God her facial structure is perfect for Bowie, I can see it now.
yaaassss!!!
I'd love to see that, though I know Bowie said to never make a biopic of him...I wonder how Tilda would find that, as she was a close friends of his and starred (haha) in his The Stars (Are Out Tonight) music video!
i want her to play every character in a film
I actually didnt know that was her in grand Budapest hotel until i saw this video wtf.
Kinda surprising, but I guess it's a testament to her skill.
a real chameleon. so much luv for this actress.
Tilda Swinton, Cate Blanchett, & Jennifer Jason Leigh are my top 3 favourite actresses out there right now.
Ever since I saw The Lion, the Witch, the Wardrobe when it came out, I have been fascinated with her
And that's why Swinton is in all three Narnia movies
To be fair, the Ice Queen is the main villain in all three of them, soooooo yeah.
Edit: Oh wait, I don't actually remember. Xo
@@L16htW4rr10r yeah, no in the second she shows up to tempt Caspian into resurrecting her. And in the third she appears manifested as Edmund's fear. So no main role, but she's very present throughout the trilogy.
@@julianzabala9010 Oh I remember now, kinda. Thank you for reminding me. ^^
It’s hard to put into words an accurate description of Tilda as an actress, she’s just amazing. Thank you Fandor
My favourite Swinton film (that I've seen) is We Need to Talk About Kevin.
Have you read the book by lional shriver? It's brilliantly written and well worth a read or listen, what amazes me is the woman who wrote the book and had a big say in the movie never had children of her own, if you liked the movie I highly recommend the book, good luck
That's the second time a movie has truly ever disturbed me to my core.
(First being Cannibal Holocaust)
Edit: Forgot that a certain movie existed. It was the third time a movie disturbed me, the second was Come and See.
Hell of a actress!!!!! She puts her heart and soul in every role she plays. Brilliant Actress. Love her ❤❤❤❤❤❤
“Curtis my friend we underSTAND each other, listen to my words it wasn’t me!” 😂 She was so funny in that movie. Love this woman. Brava 👏
Would you wear a shoe on your head?
So glad this amazing actress got the mainstream recognition because of the MCU.
She's without a doubt the greatest actress of all time.
Only Lovers Left Alive might be one of the greatest films ever made, in my humble opinion. Tilda plays her role exceptionally well, as usual.
Even when tilda has a small role in a film. Years after watching someone mentions the film. And the first thing that comes to mind is Tilda she steals every scene in every film she has ever been in
I didnt even know she played some of these characters! Thats amazing!
because she is the closest thing we have to an alien
She's amazing! ♥️
What I love most about her is that she doesn’t care about fame. She mentioned in an interview about one of the films she starred in ‘We Need To Talk About Kevin’ that she was told she can morph into whatever costume she wears. And that’s true. She also said she purposely performs in Indy films so avoid attention. She likes being underrated cause she doesn’t live for the hype that the entertainment in the industry brings like the Oscars and what not. She’s robbed of a lot of Oscar awards by the way. Awesome video. I love her
She is a rare gem in Hollywood, I appreciate her work so much.
Glad there are still actors and acresses that are valued for their acting skills and not mostly for their appearance.
I loved that you put all the movie titles in every scene. Thank you!
Sir you deserve millions of views for such quality content you produce
She's a risk taker who takes extremely unreal concepts and makes them into tangible real people.
I fell in love with her when I watched her in Orlando. Tilda Swinton is a treasure.🤩
Other worldly and so out of the park with her talent.
Why we love Swinton?
Bcoz she is so versatile and her acting is so convincing and perfect .
Tilda Swinton is an extremely gifted actress.
She was sooooo beautiful and glamorous in Edward II 1991...very top modelesque in that movie
she is one of the best actesses of our time in my estimation. She always adds a myustique and tongue in cheek humor to each character (unless it's a scary character or villain which she ALSO does well!)
I'm only just realising who she is and how many movies I've seen her in! She indeed is able to do many roles.
Told a is probably one of my favorite present day actresses, from screen to choices in life.
She brought a little boy as her date one time to red carpet, and has a fascinating living arrangement with her family.
I just adore her 🌺
Tilda Swinton is the bravest actor (and I do mean actor as she is braver the female or male actor) I have ever seen. She takes roles that most actors would turn down, because of subject matter or the weirdness of the character.
her performance in we need to talk about kevin is my favourite amongst all
Tilda is a fine Scottish actress, I first saw her in ORLANDO and was swept away by her superb performance....lets face it, she owns every role she has played.
because she's not a typical pretty face and it's her quirky appearance that is truly the breath of fresh air compared with many other female actors. Plus, she makes you believe her role is actually how she is. Completely convincing and thorough.
She is a queen of camouflage. And it is a talent, in deed.
Undeniable the best!
Watching here form molo iloilo city philippines!
She’s has versatility which is rare in actors
I don’t really feel the same way no matter what film she’s in I instantly recognize her. To me she’s a very distinct actress that is very recognizable
since i was a kid i tought this woman was not from this planet, i still believe that, there is something different in her eyes
FINALLY someone talks about Suspiria. I cannot put into words how much I love the film and how strange it makes me feel, it’s literally perfect and the tone is so old fashioned and classic. Brilliant.
Aaahhh, who doesn't LOVE Ms Swinton... Living Legend... Genius...
Loved her in Snowpiercer! But she had my heart with Only Lovers Left Alive. Tom Hiddleston and she were freaking brilliant as vampires who loved music especially rock. Argh! If you haven't seen it, go watch it! LIKE NOW, LIKE RIGHT NOW! Lol
No one even comes close. An incredible amazing talent.
Tilda is an absolute savage of an actress. The movie with her and Clooney, Michael Clayton always comes to mind when I see her.
This woman is a living LEGEND!
She's probably one of the acresses I respect the most, the versatility is INSANE
I love how Tilda Swinton has a certain look and voice but you can really say each roles are different characters altogether
I love seeing her in any movie, her role in benjamin button was a great bless
Her performance in suspiria is mind boggling and has to be one of the greatest in modern times she not only plays two main characters but one of them is french and speaks german/english/french the first one with a small accent while Lutz Ebersdorf speaks german free of accent but his english sounds very german. She also plays a third role but the previous reasons are such big commitment and in my opinion need to be credited!
she is truly amazing
I always think of her as Cate Blachett's awkward sister. :P
YESS I always think those two look somewhat alike
She’s truly gifted! I live for every movie she’s in. She plays the character well
She successes every character ..
So cool
Yes indeed she is a very versatile actress.
She's gave hell of a performance in Memoria (2021).
Swinton would be a great Dr Who. Perhaps too good for that show though.
HOLY COW! I was just going to comment this! I thought I was the only person in the world who thought that. Great minds think alike!!!! I need a Tilda Swinton Doctor Who!
Tony Horner nah the doctor is such a pop culture icon she’d be fine in that roll.
Dude, they cannot afford her!! Be dope tho...
The only thing i want to say She was my childhood.First I was scared when I See her in Nania but I Love her❣
She is so amazing! I love her uniqueness in all of it’s glory!
She is definitely one of the best actresses in filming industry and I totally agree with your last comment about her. She is such a chameleon.
Too bad she is not recognized more.
Antonietta Bombardelli what do you mean? I think she looks the same without borrowing plastic procedures...
@@Ad_Astra2023 my god, read the comment! I wasn't talking about her appearance, but recognition!
I first saw her in Orlando. Awesome.
That last scene was hypnotic
What an amazing talent and living legend she is! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I had such a crush on her as Gabriel on Constantine and searched for all the movies she did = I´m so shocked what a great actor she is and in so many ways but nobody of my friends know her.......she´s 1 in a million!
I ❤️ Tilda!! Thank you for this video! 👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
the firts time i saw tilda was in the movie Orlando, she has such a special and mesmerizing beauty
I really love how she can phase into many different characters, along with different accents too. A lot of variety, as shown in this video.
Swinton would kill it at anything
She can be beautiful, handsome, and ugly. But she's always captivating in any role
She is fierce! Love her!
And that’s why I love her sooo much
These series are fascinating. Haven't been able to done anything else for the past two hours. thanks.
She's a gem!
She’s one of my favorite actresses. But it does make me sad that “3000 years of longing” doesn’t even get a single mention. I know not everyone liked it, but I thought she was just wonderful in it. I loved it.
One of my favorite actresses 👌
i'll recognize the Narnia Actress Everywhere and she's even the Master XD love her , UNIQUE , and i'm not the best at recognizing faces even tough i'm an artist , but her face and eye/face/body/mistery/her wierd and her psyhological impact on the wiewer is everything 💛💙👏👍❤️💗⭐️ one star in an universe , the unrepeatable persona she has is so much more and adds to each character she play's , she combines in the character and dissapears , yet , she is there 💙💛
I really really really love Tilda Swinton. Fan #1.
She is a treasure
She is fantastic art!!!!
British actresses are just marvelously talented!
Other examples are her in Burn After Reading and in Forgotten Kingdom. Two great films. Love her.
If there's a movie and Tilda is in it, I watch it every time!
I recognized her in some of the movies before snowpiercer. I really like her voice and accent but the snowpiercer was the one that made her my most favourite actress. Her character was very well played and the laugh... gosh the laugh
ive had a thing for Tilda since seeing her in Orlando back in the day
that was the first movie of Tilda for me. 🤗
I didn’t even know she played all those roles!!! Holy fuck she is so underrated why?!?!?!?

I like this channel, the videos are short but very informative and straight to the point, not cash grab.
She will always be my snow queen!!
