Arterton began as a Bond Girl, but now dedicates herself to playing strong female characters with a story to tell, writes Juliet Nicolson.
Writing about Arterton’s new film ‘The Escape’, Nicolson describes a moment in this ordinary, young wife’s morning.
Her boorish husband Mark, superbly played by Dominic Cooper, just doesn’t get her. He loves her in his own selfish, on-the-brink-of-abuse way, a relationship that Arterton says is ‘past its sell-by date’. Physical satisfaction is a one-sided process in Mark’s favour. The opportunity for a woman to say no to sex does not present itself easily within marriage, the backlash too great to risk. So Arterton’s Tara gives in to early-morning ‘conjugal rights’; in one agonising scene, she splays the fingers of one hand behind Mark’s back, stretching upwards in a silent yell of despair. As the camera lingers in an unforgiving close-up on Tara’s face, devoid of cosmetic gloss, the subtlest shift of expression reflects an inner despair, then her full beauty emerges when a rare smile illuminates her face, a curtain drawn back, sunshine flooding a darkened room. But the script belongs to the actors. Arterton found improvisation liberating and exciting. ‘It is up to you to react, and that can change everything in a moment.’ The transition she makes from acting the part to being the part is seamless. It is a brave, disturbing, profoundly moving piece of cinema. As the Guardian reviewer said, in a film with ‘no wrong notes’ it was also ‘unbearably painful’. When I saw The Escape alone, in the middle of the week, in the middle of the day, I was grateful for the cover of dark glasses even before I emerged into the street.
By contrast, in Arterton’s next film ‘Vita and Virginia’ scheduled for a spring 2019 release, she plays Vita Sackville-West against Elozabeth Debicki’s Virginia Woolf.

Top American woman and the world's top athlete according to many experts, Serena Williams covers the June 2018 issue of Harper's Bazaar US. Miranda Almond styles Serena in sexy bodies with a classic twist, lensed by Richard Phibbs for 'Queen Serena'.
The interview begins: "As one of the greatest athletes of all time, Serena Williams has overcome misogyny and racism with inspirational fortitude and grace. Now that she is combining her return to Wimbledon with life as a new mother, after a traumatic birth that nearly killed her, she talks to Lydia Slater about sisterhood, self-acceptance and staying strong."
We hope that Serena is headed to Wimbledon, after dropping out of the French Open on Monday. After a week of surprising all with her 'old Serena' tennis megastar self, Serena withdrew from her scheduled match with Maria Sharapova, with an injury to her right pectoral muscle. via New York Times

Last year James starred opposite Ansel Elgort in Edgar Wright’s acclaimed thriller Baby Driver, and she appeared in the Winston Churchill biopic Darkest Hour.
"The piece of advice I’d give my younger self would be exactly the same advice I’d give to myself now, which is not to always feel like you have to be something, or try and hide what you are or how you’re feeling," Lily James tells readers of Harper's UK. "Just try and be what you are and be brave about that." Read the interview.

Carey Mulligan had a major role in the Netflix film 'Mudbound' -- an exceptional film imo -- and is quotedin her interview about rumors of a real-life lynching taking place in Atlanta in July 2016.
“It was so crazy because, you know, that feels historical and it wasn’t. I think because I live in London, I suppose I have an idea that we’re all very multicultural and everyone is very accepting and I had no idea the extent to which racism is still rampant in America… I was naïve to how bad it is still today.”

In her Harper's Bazaar UK interview, Foster reflects on Hollywood, including . . .
On the shortcomings of male directors
“Even with the number of movies I’ve made, I’ve never made a movie that was about women, made by women, that was seen through women’s eyes… I think it’s very hard for [male directors] to imagine women’s lives, and when they do, I think they have this either idealised idea or this victim idea.
“And there can be a lack of sophistication about how they approach women in the text. I was saying recently that there was a time in my life, for 15 or 20 years, during which every single script I read, the motivation for the female character was that they had been raped or abused as a child. I don’t think it’s an on-purpose thing, but it’s like, ‘What can I give that woman that will feel meaningful? Oh I know – she’s been raped as a child.’ So is that the only thing they can think about us that feels deep or something?”
