Las 10 mujeres nominadas a los oscar 2019 tienen mucho que decir

Los nominados a los Premios Oscar 2019

La Academia de Cine de Hollywood acaba de anunciar los nominados a los premios Oscar 2019, cuya gala se celebrará el próximo 24 de febrero. ¿Las conclusiones a primera vista? Que todavía queda mucho, muchísimo, camino por recorrer. Cabe destacar que este año ni una mujer ha sido nominada al Oscar a la mejor dirección… Pero para encontrar el punto positivo a esta situación, nos queremos centrar en las actrices que optan a una estatuilla este año. ¡Empecemos!

Yalitza Aparicio

Está nominada a mejor actriz por Roma, la película de Alfonso Cuarón. El mes pasado, Yalitza salió en la portada de 'Vogue México' y, poco después, por desgracia, las redes sociales se llenaron de comentarios racistas. Los medios de comunicación han calificado la portada como revolucionaria. "Se está rompiendo el estereotipo de que solo algunas personas de cierto perfil puedan aparecer en películas o en las portadas de revistas", ha confesado la mexicana en Vogue.

Rome is his film debut. In the film we see a year in the life of a professional upper-class family in the Roma neighborhood of Mexico City, in the 1970s. Yalitza plays Cleo, a domestic worker and, in reality, her story is that of Liboria Rodríguez , the nanny who took care of Alfonso Cuarón. Her character has highlighted the stereotypes suffered by many indigenous women in Mexico.

Lady Gaga

Nominated for Best Leading Actress for A Star is Born and Best Song. According to the New York Post , “Lady Gaga's performance in A star is born is Oscar-worthy. She shows her acting skills by changing the flashes for humanity. "

In case you haven't seen the film yet, it tells a story of Jackson, a country music star with a drinking problem, who discovers the talents of a young singer, Ally (Lady Gaga) with whom he falls in love. It is shocking to see Gaga without makeup and the artificiality that has marked her professional career. A strong and vulnerable character at the same time, a marvel.

Glenn Close

The actress is nominated for the film The Good Wife , a film in which she plays an artist who had to sacrifice her professional life and ambition to help her husband succeed. Glenn, at 71, was proclaimed the winner of the best actress in a drama award at the 76th Golden Globes a few days ago for the film in question and gave a very moving speech during the ceremony.

" I think about my mother, who really sublimated my father throughout his life and at age 80 she said, 'I feel like I haven't accomplished anything,' and that's not right ," Glenn said. " I think what I have learned from all this experience is that women are caregivers and that is what is expected of us. We have our children and husbands and, yes we are lucky … But we have to find personal fulfillment. We have to follow our dreams and say I can do it and I should be allowed to do that . "

Olivia colman

She is nominated for Best Leading Actress for The Favorite , Yorgos Lanthimos' first period film to focus on political machinations during the reign of Anne of Great Britain. It is, rather, a satirical recreation of political intrigues and power struggles. Colman plays a very strong female character, Queen Anne. For this role, which Colman defines as "a real blessing", she had to gain 16 kilos. She defines herself as an imaginative actress, no method: " I have three children, two dogs and a husband, I don't have time to be whining around the house like a queen ."

Melissa mccarthy

Nominated for Best Leading Actress for Can You Ever Forgive me? . It is a biographical film directed by Marielle Heller and written by Nicole Holofcener and Jeff Whitty, based on the memory of Lee Israel, an unsuccessful Manhattan writer with commissioned biographies. According to critics, in the film Melissa shows her great capacity for comedy, but also very good resources for drama. McCarthy's character represents an intelligent woman with an acid sense of humor. However, Israel was eaten up because of her bad temper and lack of discipline.

Amy adams

She is nominated for best supporting actress for Vice , the story of how Dick Cheney, the vice president of the United States during Bush's term, came to have almost unlimited power by becoming his right hand man. Amy plays Lynne, the protagonist's wife. Adams not long ago confessed to seeing everything before the #MeToo era. " I think most women have experienced it, if only to feel insecure about rejecting someone. And when apologizing, 'Oh, I'm so sorry, I must have given you the wrong impression.' I can't say all of them, but the Most women have had one of those moments where you question yourself , "she said in an interview with 'The Hollywood Reporter'.

Emma Stone

She is nominated for best supporting actress for La Favorita '. She plays Abigail, a maid who sees the possibility of returning to her aristocratic roots. It is the role that changes the most throughout the film. “ Abigail is a survivor and a complex woman. She had to put up with a lot. And while she had charm, she showed a great ability to manipulate in her quest for power. But when you learn about her past, all that she has overcome, you realize how bittersweet and toxic the feeling of finally getting where she wanted to is to her, "says Stone.

Speaking of the film, he recognizes that the government of Donald Trump is not exactly characterized by respect for women's rights when, on the contrary, they " are making their voices heard in a very powerful way ."

Tavira Marina

She is nominated for best supporting actress for 'Roma'. " I was together with Yalitza when he invited us to be part of the film and that moment my face was one of total happiness and total disbelief and Yali's was one of absolute incomprehension, " confesses Marina. She plays Mrs. Sofía, the director's mother. When it comes to talking about her character and Cleo's, she highlights: " They are two women who belong to very different worlds and who are nevertheless living a very similar situation, which is being abandoned in their motherhood ."

In addition, he adds: " We have to ask ourselves about fatherhood and how we conceive fatherhood. Children are normally seen as the responsibility of mothers (…) somehow society allows men to abandon their children, they are forgive, which is never forgiven a woman . "

Rachel Weisz

She is nominated for best supporting actress for La Favorita . While Olivia Colman plays a fragile woman, Rachel builds a magnificent and powerful woman with ease. Weisz picked up the Best Cast Award at the last Gotham Awards for her work and that of Olivia Colman and Emma Stone under Yorgos Lanthimos in the film in question.

And she implied that she was already tired of being asked what it's like to work with other women. " I hope that one day, in the not too distant future, they will not ask us about what it was like to share the screen with other women. Because I think men are never asked that. But I could be wrong, " said the actress.

Regina king

She is nominated for Best Supporting Actress for If Beale Street Could Talk . The film tells a story of two newlyweds in Harlem in the 70s: he is wrongly accused of raping a girl and his life is put to the test. King won the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress for the film in question and gave a very emotional speech. "Our microphones are big and we can speak to a lot of people. I promise that everything that I am going to produce in the next two years will have 50% women, " he said and challenged everyone present "with power" to do what same.

The Hollywood Film Academy has just announced the nominees for the 2019 Oscar Awards . And, of course, it is another year full of disappointments and the Oscars are once again looking at the mirror of machismo. How many women have been nominated for best director? Not even one! Last year, Greta Gerwig managed to make a place for herself on this list thanks to her film 'Lady Bird' (2017).

The sad thing is that with Greta, the women who have ever been nominated for an Oscar for Best Director are … five! Lina Wertmüller for 'Seven Beauties' (1976), Jane Campion for 'The Piano' (1993), Sofia Coppola for 'Lost in Translation' (2003), Kathryn Bigelow for 'In Hostile Land' (2009) and Greta Gerwig for Lady Bird (2017). And since we thought that this year would be different …
