In a recent interview with Vogue, Academy Award-winning actress Kate Winslet, aged 47, discussed how the film industry culture has drastically changed since the #MeToo movement. She expressed her pride in the current generation of young actresses who are unafraid and credited her own struggles and use of her voice for the positive shift. Winslet notably omitted thanking Harvey Weinstein in her 2009 Oscars acceptance speech and explained that she refused to thank him due to his improper behavior. She spoke about her early experiences in Hollywood, where she faced scrutiny, judgment, and sexism, and how they gave her a profound understanding of complex female characters. Winslet’s latest project, the film “Lee,” which she also co-produced, is the culmination of her 30 years of experience in the industry. Despite her numerous awards and nominations, she described the making of “Lee” as a challenging fight, with some male Hollywood executives patronizing her and belittling her passion project. Winslet also addressed the issue of nudity on screen at her age, stating that she embraces her natural self and refuses to criticize her physical appearance. She emphasized the importance of believing in oneself and not caring about others’ opinions. Additionally, Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue, aged 55, spoke out against ageism, stating that it’s no longer cool to be ageist and that labels are dropping. Both Winslet and Minogue emphasized the importance of embracing and accepting oneself at any age. The full interview with Winslet can be found in the October issue of Vogue, available from September 19.
