I love that she ended up on the worst dressed list for decades and found it funny that the tabloids didn't realize her fashion sense was the wardrobe equivalent of her flipping off Hollywood. LOLOL
They aren’t together anymore. I think it’s been over 5 years? Her career is just so much more diverse than what she’s often credited for. I thought the subtle nod to her other successes was nice.
@@chrisofnottingham I know its the right thing to do and very polite bc famous people don't always want to be bothered but boyyy would I hate myself had I not gone up to her and acted all weird like a little school girl xD
"If you have very little control over your life, you can often end up controlling what little you can." Is PRECISELY how I explain my special needs son and his demanding/obstructive behaviour. Perfectly put.
This also explains some suicide/cutting issues, when uncontrollable pain is all you have felt sometimes you want to control something, even if it’s pain, it is controllable pain. I don’t know if this makes sense but to me it does.
I’ve always admired this woman since I was a little kid. I think many of her roles will be burned into my memory for a long time to come. Truly a gem. Hopefully she gets a Golden Globe and/or an Emmy for The Crown. She deserves a lot more recognition than she gets.
Helena and Olivia deserve Damehoods!! Sure they have the CBE title but it’s not the same as DBE (which is when they can use the term Dame or Sir). Tobias Menzies deserves be knighted as well. All 3 actors are chameleons
I feared her in Tim Burton's movies... Hated her in Harry Potter... Pitied her in the Crown.. but absolutely LOVE her as herself in real life. That's a legendary actress right there.
In "The King's Speech" Helena Bonham Carter plays Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mum. In "The Crown" she plays Princess Margaret. So, she acted as her own daughter.
And in The King’s Speech, the actor who played the archbishop who crowned George VI is the same actor who portrays the Duke of Windsor this season. Another neat fact, in the 2008 movie The Queen (which was written by the same guy who’s writing this series), the actor playing Prince Charles is the same actor who played the Duke in the first two seasons!
@@PP-vm8zo You're completely right! Alex Jennings acted as his own great uncle. Derek Jacobi as Archbishop of Canterbury acted as the man who was also partly responsible for his own abdication when he later acted as Duke of Windsor. It's very surreal.
We can see that Stephen is doing his very best to make her feel comfortable. The moment Stephen does the funny gesture while pouring tea, she laughs and that's when she relaxed. You can tell she's not very comfortable in the beginning(due to jet lag), but she slowly opens up. Very wholesome.
she will always be one of my favourite actors, love how she plays all these different rolls especially my favourite the goth style that she does is amazing.
casting director: so what makes you qualified to play princess Margaret? helena: she was almost auntie princess Margaret casting director: you're hired
Helena’s Uncle escaped from behind enemy line by himself in WWII, walked the length of Italy and made it back him to guard the princess. Even the rich kids back then were tougher than we are now!
NoBody watch her with Rik Mayall in Dancing Queen it’s on RUclips. She’s only 23 ish and is stunning. Always gets forgotten but she’s so wonderful in it.
Helena Bonham Carters' grandparents on both sides were amazing people. Brave, ethical, compassionate and interesting. There was a documentary on British TV about their contributions to defeating nazism in WW2.
All these Helena interviews are making my heart smile, i've missed her so much!! She is such an inspiration for me and I could listen to her for hours and never get bored, she has a very fascinating personality❤
Here are some ways to connect Helena to Kevin Bacon: 1. Helena Bonham Carter was in Fight Club with Edward Norton, who was in Birdman with Emma Stone, who was in Crazy, Stupid, Love with Kevin Bacon. 2. Helena Bonham Carter was in The King's Speech with Colin Firth, who was in Bridget Jones' Diary with Renee Zellweger, who was in Jerry Maguire with Tom Cruise, who was in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon. Those are just two off the top of my head.
Helena has been in soooooo many movies - movies far better than Harry Potter... and I liked Harry Potter, but Helena's performance in Harry Potter was only scratching the surface of her talent.
@@drewsteps Yes, she is a very good actress. Always expect great movies when saw her name on the list. But Bellatraix Lestrange and Princess Margaret are the characters impressive characters to me.
I I respect her hardcore because she played my childhood characters , the red queen , bellatrix and now she’s playing a legendary English royalty Love Herrrr
I absolutely LOVE Helena. She is so corky and interesting to listen to. I wish there were more interviews of her with the likes of Stephen and Graham Norton. I feel like they are the two late night shows that get the best out of her every time.
I don't know much English, and there are words I don't understand, but just hearing Helena speak and seeing her, makes me happy and makes me laugh. I want to learn English just to see her interviews. She really is an amazing actress😭💗💗💗
She's always so amazing i used to be so obsessed with watching her videos and I'm glad to see she's as great as ever. Very informative and fun interview!
Playing Helena by My Chemical Romance as she walked out... beyond iconic
Amen.
I said exactly the same.
I SCREAMED. ICONIC.
Why?
Amazing.
I love how honest and real she is. She doesn't put on a fake persona.
She is not real she is a good actor
It’s probably because as an actor she spends so much time being other people that it’s nice to be herself
That's because she's british.
Just realised someone already said that
@@71hammyman lol. It's all good, man.
One of the best actris of the world
“Say when.”
“I didn’t.”
Epic.

Because the color of the tea is wrong and she was thinking this isn’t going to taste good. I can tell it’s a weak tea...
Princess Margaret would be proud.
LOL
Very Princess Margeret
She’s so unapologetically odd and I love it.
Now that is a perfect description for this woman. You nailed it.
She is a genuine aristocrat with a title, which she doesn't use. That gives her a different outlook to us common folk.
I love that she ended up on the worst dressed list for decades and found it funny that the tabloids didn't realize her fashion sense was the wardrobe equivalent of her flipping off Hollywood. LOLOL
Me too
@@BuffOrpington7 Yes there are a couple. Of Dames amongst our favorite brits that do not use their titles.
I really feel that Helena just gets better and better as she ages - she’s a delight
She’s beautiful. And she gets more gorgeous as she ages
LucyLuFrank you're cute! lol
Agreed. I've loved her for YEARS! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think she's been steadily awesome throughout her career. A delight indeed. She's like a rare bird.

I like that he introduced her by crediting non-Burton films.
Why not?
It’s not like she’s famous because of her husband.
@@angemaidment5640 :Of course not but her husband gave her most recognisable roles in his movies.

The coolest chaotic neutral human being on Earth. Love her.
Helena is one of the greatest living actors. I’ll never get over how astoundingly perfect she was in Fight Club.
tommyt1971 She is amazing!
Her Ophelia still remains the best too

Self deprecation is pre-requisite in Britain and Ireland.
Yes
She's English, how could she be anything but self-deprecating
Lawrence Sullivan Well, she’s British.
Hugh Grant is also self- deprecating. It's a British thing and very appealing.
I can't believe she is 54... She looks so much younger
age is just a number! You can look beautiful at any age !
What?!?!?!? She is 54?!?!
I thought she was 39-46 maybe?😕

I literally came down here to comment that, though I’m not a fan of theirs I like that song.
I thought I was crazy. Glad to see others heard it too.

I love how I don't know that
I genuinely love that she explained that she was tired and he wasn’t boring her or she wasn’t enjoying herself😫 what a queen
All the ex-emo kids cried a little when her intro song played.

Oh my, I have always loved this crazy adorable woman! The "tea ceremony" part of this interview is marvelous!
She is so incredibly quirky but so honest and down to earth. I just love her, she must be a blast to hang out with.
She’s got an incredibly calming motherly sounding talking voice. Literally almost fell asleep. 😂😴
I love her just for not kissing and hugging him on entering.
phoebephoebo she totally carried in her jacket so she could avoid his embrace.......
Its because she's ill ! 😂
She is such a Margaret (on that tea with Stephan ) in a good and elegant way, love her in all of her pictures
It’s an English thing - first time they meeting so no being over familiar
@@noluthando6757 Not so these days.
"If you have very little control of your life you can often end up controlling the little that you can." that was deep!
I don't know why but when she simply said "I DIDN'T", I could easily see Bellatrix saying that line
Her necklace is something ballatrix would totally wear.
Harry did
"And then, Harry felt shivers running down his spine, frightened"
We can see that Stephen is doing his very best to make her feel comfortable. The moment Stephen does the funny gesture while pouring tea, she laughs and that's when she relaxed. You can tell she's not very comfortable in the beginning(due to jet lag), but she slowly opens up. Very wholesome.
A friend of mine met her in London and said she is a very lovely and down to earth person. No showing off and humble.
she will always be one of my favourite actors, love how she plays all these different rolls especially my favourite the goth style that she does is amazing.
“Would you like a cup of tea?” Stephen pulls out a tray with Mrs Potts & family on it.
I choked on my iced coffee
You damn disney-head😂
I notice she didn't touch the tea, and rightly so. American tea is dreadful.
Ah, yes, because the entire country of America drinks the exact same tea.
@@kosibee03 country of America? America is a continent.
@@cesarzpontu8886 i always thought America is a country and North America is a continent

I was expecting her to say "off with his head" when Stephen stopped pouring before she instructed him.
I now understand where the phrase "stiff upper lip" come from!! Life revelation
YES I was like WHAT omg wow

helena: she was almost auntie princess Margaret
casting director: you're hired
Helena’s Uncle escaped from behind enemy line by himself in WWII, walked the length of Italy and made it back him to guard the princess. Even the rich kids back then were tougher than we are now!
My grand-grandfather also did this but he was in Germany, went back to France, then crossed the line, which is pretty difficult.
In my opinion the best female actor of all time.
Literally all her characters are iconic and leave an imprint.

Honestly one of the best things i saw this year. Helena is fantastic! I love how thoughtful she speaks. And the chemistry with Stephen is perfect.
"Would you like tea?"
*Casually whips out a Royal Albert tea set from behind his desk*
Helena Bonham Carter is an OLD, dark, seasoned soul... Love her to bits...
Everything she has to say in interviews in interesting and you feel like it genuine. She is also gorg!

Easiest way to do it; Helena and Kevin were both in Novocaine together.
Lame movie, great cast, as it also features Steve Martin and Laura Dern
@@davidsinnott1894 I actually wasn't aware of that. Thanks for bringing that up.
@Kyle Ocenham, no worries, I absolutely love Six Degrees Of Kevin Bacon!

This also makes Kevin Bacon connected to HH Asquith.
Helena was always Bellatraix Lestrange to me. This is like the first time I figure that she also "Princess Margaret".

Her laugh at the end is so perfect!
Always love her special kind of eternal beauty.
She is also very impressed on her acting. That was a lovely and genuine reaction.
FYI: Jean Baptiste is playing the song "Tea for Two" on the piano while they prepare/drink the tea
Watching this clip with Helena and Stephen interacting is like being in heaven! I would watch a show with both of them!

Literally love that they played “Helena” ❤️❤️❤️
Couldn't be happier that Stay Human played Helena from MCR when she walked out 😍 Havent heard that song in about 10 years!
Delightful. Helena is completely charming, as she always has been.
she played the role of Princess Margaret so well. Superb performance.
There playing Helena from MCR!! It took me a moment to realize it and know I’m forever grateful! 😭🥰
She was the first lady I every had a crush on 30 years ago........it's not changed one little bit...so beautiful! xx
Everybody’s focusing on her “I didn’t” and I’m fixating on the fact that she puts milk in her tea first
She is drinking it working class style.
I felt outraged by that!!
Everyone in our neck of the woods does that)))
A crime
it's a british thing but it's not good lmao
Her scene with Clancy Brown playing Lyndon Johnson was a riot.
Anyone else notice they played Helena by MCR?
Nope. Not a soul.
Shirley Timple Shut up.
Yup
She nailed royalty in "The King's Speech" Helen is a treasure
I absolutely LOVE Helena. She is so corky and interesting to listen to. I wish there were more interviews of her with the likes of Stephen and Graham Norton. I feel like they are the two late night shows that get the best out of her every time.
She is SO down-to-earth!
Now that I know the royals’ secret, I shall never again move my upper lip when speaking.
"Stiff upper lip" is a general British reference. The Royals may have kept theirs stiffer, though.
I've heard the expression"stiff upper lip" all my life and I never knew it had to do with speech.
So aloof and pretentious, their lack of regard and enthusiasm is demonstrated as an extremely relaxed (stiff) upper lip. Lol
The Royals have the most annoying nasally accent. It’s worse than lispy Castillian Spanish.
I don't know much English, and there are words I don't understand, but just hearing Helena speak and seeing her, makes me happy and makes me laugh. I want to learn English just to see her interviews. She really is an amazing actress😭💗💗💗
She has always been so interesting and in my opinion one of the most underrated actresses
I kinda blushed when she stuck out her hand for Stephen to shake. So polite ❤️
YES! She’s doing more press in America! I love her and Stephen, they have such great chemistry in this interview! They made me laugh so much! 😅💖
That clip they showed was the best bit of dialogue I've seen in a while. Epic. Simple and so profound.
Unlike Bellatrix, she's the sweetest most down to earth person I know.
Even in this interview, she looks like a calmer, kinder version of Bellatrix. 😂
You know her?
Apart from her having an affair with Dame Emma Thompson's husband, Kenneth Branagh, she seems cool.
She was jet lagged lol
I'm an adult who is literally too creeped out to watch her based on her Harry Potter role.
You're telling me Bellatrix Lestrange had an affair with Gilderoy Lockhart?
She's a beautiful, accomplished actress & I love listening to her thoughts.
Gorgeous actress ! The best of her generation !
So long and good night, having MCR Helena playing as she walked out was ICONIC.
