    What I like about Jodie Foster is that she owns very high human power to reach others without looking down nobody. She earned it through her actress life without falling onto the bad ground. It should have been a quite dangerous way of living with full of temptation but she has been navigating quite candidly. When I say she is clever, a single word is not enough really. But let’s say she is brilliant.

  • @TSIRKLAND

    I've seen interviews with Jodie in the past, and she's seemed more shy, less sure of herself. (I'm not just talking child-star Jodie, but even grown actress Jodie.) It seems to me that in recent years when I've seen her in interviews she is much more relaxed, more open, more confident. I don't know if it's simply an age thing; with age and experience and perspective she's decided to just roll with it and have a more relaxed attitude, and/or if it was coming out: she could be her true authentic self, not hiding a secret all the time? Either and/or both, probably.
    She is SO smart, SO talented. Love to see her work. She had such a long time in the public eye: a lot of that is quite unfair, really- but she has grown up in spite of all that pressure and scrutiny, and here's to many many more years to come! I peg her as an American Hellen Mirren or Judi Dench; continuing to act and tell stories as long as she is in the world.

    • @mickosmile850
      @mickosmile850 Год назад +3

      What you could have been perceiving was a younger woman than she is today who still concerned herself with life worries, but as she's alluded to on The View, she's now in her 60s and with that came the attitude of shaking off life's pressures and caring less about society's perception of you.

    I like Foster as Agent Starling. She also really cute, small kid in 'Courtship of Eddy's Father.' And 'Little Girl Who Lived Down the Lane,' she a teenager, poise and very intelligent, without being creepy, while movie totally creep show. They used to always show latter, on TV, Halloween Night. She definitely more than decent actress, with Yale degree. Doesn't seem like person, very easy understand, though.

    It's seriously NO secret that Jodie was up for the role of Princess Leia! Lucas wrote the part with her in mind but she was unavailable due to shooting both Taxi Driver and Freaky Friday so Lucas aged the character by a few years and that's how Carrie Fisher ended up getting the part, although one of the frontrunners was Amy Irving, but she chose to make Carrie with Brian De Palma.

    This might sound a bit random. Thinking of her being in STAR WARS made me think about the sequels.
    She has never been in a movie sequel.
    She was offered $20million to be in HANNIBAL (still an impressive amount, but even more so back in 2000, when the film was made).
    I just think it lends some credence that she's never done a "paycheck movie." She seems to do projects that she's passionate about, I respect that.

Regardless she is a legend and had a bigger career than most of the people in star wars including the one who went on to play Princess Leia
