Emma Thompson Comedy | Funniest Moments You Haven't Seen

Описание: Dame Emma Thompson DBE (born 15 April 1959) is a British actress, screenwriter, activist, author, and comedian. One of Britain's most acclaimed actresses, she often portrays enigmatic and matronly characters with a sense of wit, frequently in period dramas and literary adaptations. She is the recipient of numerous accolades, including two Academy Awards, a Primetime Emmy Award, three BAFTA Awards, and two Golden Globe Awards.

"I am an instinctive actress. I don't have technique because I never learnt any. I do the cerebral bit before I start. Then I just let it be. I allow whatever rises to rise naturally. You are tricking your subconscious. I work from the inside out." – Thompson on her approach to acting

Thompson is regarded as one of the finest actresses of her generation and one of Britain's most recognisable actresses, held in high regard within Hollywood. Early in her career, when she was closely associated with her first husband Kenneth Branagh, she was considered a "luvvy". The public warmed to her after the separation, and she became one of the key actresses of the 1990s. Her status has continued to grow; in 2008, journalist Sarah Sands stated that Thompson has improved with age and experience, and Mark Kermode said of her performances, "There is something about her which is — you just trust her. You just think 'I'm in proper hands here.' ... She's up there with the great, I mean really great, British female performers".

Thompson is particularly known for playing reticent women, and Sands describes her as "the best actress of our times on suffering borne with poignant dignity". According to Kate Kellaway of The Guardian, she specialises in playing "a good woman in a frock". She also plays many haughty characters, with a "bracing, nanny-like demeanour", but she is noted for her ability to win the empathy of audiences. Thompson belongs to a group of highly decorated British actresses including Judi Dench, Kate Winslet and Helena Bonham Carter who are known for appearing in "heritage films" and typically showing "restraint, rendering emotions through intellect rather than feelings, and a sense of irony, which demonstrates the heroine's superior understanding". Projecting a typically "British image", Thompson's often dogmatic and tight-jawed manner has also been compared to that of Maggie Smith.

With a background in comedy, Thompson's performances are typically delivered with an ironic touch. Thompson has stated that the "most moving things are often also funny, in life and in art" which is present in her film work. She often brings her real personality to her roles, and Kellaway believes that her lack of conventional beauty contributes to her likeability as an actress.

She is bloody hilarious. For those women who refuse to grow old, they should take a leaf from Thompson's playbook. That's how one would call aging gracefully. And I bet, one of her secrets for that, is to stay happy and be happy. For such a fine actress, she doesn't take herself too seriously.

The older she gets, the more gorgeous she gets! She has no sense of pride. That's a good thing. I love her!
