PEOPLE I ADMIRE!

JULIA ROBERTS





For as long as I can remember this actress has always been an inspiration of mine. I feel she successfully captivates her audience with each performance she creates. As well as being adaptable to a variety of different characters through gesture and emotion she makes some of the best and most realistic screenings I have seen.
This is evident from her Hollywood film career which has continued for almost 30 years.

She became well known during the early 1900's after starring in the romantic comedy Pretty Woman opposite Richard Gere.
After receiving Academy Award nominations for Steel Magnolias in the 1990 and Pretty Woman in 1991, she won the Academy Award for best actress in 2001 for her performance in Erin Brockovich.
Her films, which also include romantic comedies such as My Best Friends Wedding, Mystic Pizza, Notting Hill, Runaway Bride and crime films such as The Pelican Brief and Oceans Eleven and Twelve have collectively brought box office receipts of over two billion dollars making her the most successful actress in terms of box office receipts.
From her success it is evident that she is an inspiration to many and not just through her acting talent but through her style and beauty she was awarded the first actress to appear as the face of Vogue Magazine.

Julia Roberts adopts the acting method as living the character. This is basically where in preparation for undertaking a character in acting, you fulfill all that the characters life style would require.

I believe that this inspiration gave me my motivation to commence acting and watching and understanding her work stimulated my own professional career.
