Ellen擔任美國獨立精神獎頒獎嘉賓

 24th Annual Film Independent's Spirit Awards

由於Ellen是上屆美國獨立精神獎的影后,所以她今年便擔任第二十四屆獨立精神獎的頒獎嘉賓,她負責頒發最佳女主角這個獎項.

去年Ellen以一身便裝出席,今年她則花了些心思打扮: 以一身黑色晚裝配襯一條靚靚頸鏈(可能是在她最近一次墨西哥旅行中買的),不知道她是否很喜歡黑色呢?(因為過往Ellen有很多套晚裝都是黑色。)

Ellen Page語錄

以下是一些Ellen曾講過的說話,有些說話真的很有意思!我一直都覺得她是一個與眾不同的演員。

• "The thing I like about acting is being able to lose yourself completely in someone else.”

•  "I'm not that comfortable when I get recognized."

•  "I don't really want to do the Hollywood thing. I think you ought to try to say something with your movies."

•  "I don't care if people like my character. I just want them to think about the movie's message."

•  "When I feel strongly about something, I'm not so quiet."

•  "Judging people you don't know for things you don't understand is just really stupid."

•  "When I was 12, I realized I was very uncomfortable having my parents on set. So I told them that, and they understood."

•  "As a girl, you're supposed to love Sleeping Beauty. I mean who wants to love Sleeping Beauty when you can be Aladdin?"

•  "I'm a tomboy from Nova Scotia."

•  "I don't think I'm totally romantic, it's disgusting."

•  "Anyone who gets me is really lucky because I'm not really crazy about jewelry or flowers."

•  "I'm obviously not an actor for awards but of course it's exciting and it's lovely when people like what you did."

•  "Brad Pitt has not sent me a card, no, which I'm furious about!"

•  "I come in at night and expect to see some transparent slut at the top of the stairs." [On her 19th century Halifax home, a former brothel]

•  "It was an intense movie and the response was polarized -- which was great, because it   stuck in people's minds. That film has helped me immensely." [On Hard Candy.]

•  "I'm a total shrimp, which makes me look younger. I'll be able to stay in that area longer, which is good, because there's more competition in your 20s." [on her slight frame]

•  "I would just tell her that I adore her, and I think ‘Horses’ is one of the greatest albums of all time. Her music paralyzes me. It is so beautiful, and it makes me want to rip my clothes off and run through the streets!" [On her idol Patti Smith]

•  "For the role in An American Crime, when I played someone who was starved and tortured, I lost a lot of weight, and my body and my mind were drained. After that people told me, You really need to do a comedy. And I said I am -- I'm playing a 16-year-old who gets pregnant!"

•  "You can choose who you want to be the hero [in Hard Candy], but you'll be second-guessing yourself -- there's just no right answer. Our society is obsessed with finding good and finding evil, but I think we're all capable of anything."

•  "It's much simpler to be tortured on camera or to be filmed losing your mind. Whereas a script that has characters who are honest, witty and genuine... is often much harder to act."

•  "I loved that this girl was mature in some ways, and naive in other ways. Juno is different from what we normally see in films about teenagers -- but at the same time she has a lot in common with most of the people I knew in high school. There are a lot of really intelligent teenage girls and boys who are unique and don't just listen to and dress like Britney Spears, and who don't just want to fuck the hot guy."

•  "What I like about the film [Juno] is that it tackles an issue that we often treat as this really heavy, dark event and we look at it with a different perspective. She's extremely independent. She finds adoptive parents before she even tells her parents. I just think it's nice to not dwell in darkness."

•"They [her terrier-cross named Sprout and 10-year-old beagle named Julie] are just the greatest little things on the planet. I'm so in love with them it's crazy and they keep me from going out partying because I'm like, 'You know what? My beagle is going to get me up at 6am because it's breakfast time, so I've got to go to bed'. Going home to Nova Scotia and spending time with my dogs and being close to nature just helps me remain whole and hopefully I'll continue to keep the rest of the world in perspective."


• "I went to Oregon to study permaculture and lived in an eco-village for a month outside Eugene. It’s called Lost Valley. It was amazing and exactly what I needed. You’re learning how to live in a holistic way with the cycles of the Earth. At one point I was digging goat manure and putting it into a wheelbarrow, and while shovelling it, I just went, ‘Oh, my God, this is exactly what I want to be doing right now."

• "I’m not a fancy person. I love small spaces. I like tiny cars. I don’t buy things, aside from music and books. I don’t get loads of attention and maybe it’s because I’m kind of boring. I don’t think I’m boring, but I have different interests. I don’t go out much, not because I’m hiding but because I’m not a big drinker. I go out and have a good time, I go to concerts and stuff."

• "My nipples could cut diamonds" [quote from the cold set of Super in Shreveport, Louisiana while Ellen was sitting in the backseat of Rainn Wilson's Buick in her bra]

Ellen兩新戲今年推出

Ellen去年憑撗掃各大頒獎禮,如果你有留意今年的金球獎或奧斯卡提名,是否會奇怪為何Ellen的名字彷彿消聲匿跡了?其實Ellen正忙著拍攝新戲,所以暫時都未必看到她出現在電視或頒獎禮上,不過大家也不用失望,因為Ellen的兩部新戲Whip it!和Peacock將會在今年夏天上映,所以大家拭目以待!
