Tom Wilkinson

Four films a year is perhaps the norm for Tom Wilkinson. Perhaps, only at the beginning of his career, he was busy in one cinematic work, but that's what he started. A similar situation with the British and with prestigious awards - if you are nominated for an Oscar or Emmy, then at least twice. The total for 2018 is as follows: 11 out of 54 possible awards.

On February 5, 1948, in Leeds, where the first commercials were filmed, which marked the beginning of the art of cinema, a son was born to the farmers Marjorie and Thomas. The name was given to the child in honor of his father. But, apparently, in order to avoid confusion, the second was added - Geoffrey, which he frankly did not like and even dreamed of getting rid of him, because Yorkshire already knew the namesake chemist - the Nobel laureate.

When Tom was barely 4 years old, the family, tired of enduring financial difficulties, sold the farm and went to Canada, which later did not become a long-term shelter. A few years later, Great Britain was again chosen as a new place of residence - in Cornwall, both parents were involved in managing a local pub.

As for her studies, the principal of the elementary school, Molly Soudon, noted the abilities of the young ward, as well as his laziness. In order to somehow instill in him a love of drama and inspire him to the next "middle" stage, the woman, together with her friend Paddy, organized literary evenings. At one of them, when asked about his future theatrical career, Thomas said that he wanted a special merit badge.

To some extent, such an ambitious desire came true: in 2005, he became the proud owner of the Order of the British Empire. By the way, according to a London publication, photographs of the mentors still adorn the actor's desk.

Wilkinson received his higher education first at the University of Kent, from where he graduated with a doctorate, then attended RADA, which gave the world, in addition to him, many talented figures in the performing arts - John Gielgud, Timothy Dalton, Anthony Hopkins and others. He had a chance to shine on the stage of The Royal Shakespeare Company, The Oxford Playhouse and The National Theater.

Although the actor has been in films since 1976, he became famous after the 1997 comedy about six men who lost their jobs and were forced to make a living by dancing erotic with a frank ending. Male Striptease earned a dozen nominations, and Wilkinson earned a BAFTA.

In the same year in the melodrama "Oscar and Lucinda" he managed to collaborate with Cate Blanchett, and in "Wilde" - with Jude Law. Thomas has a long-standing and warm "relationship" with Shakespeare - in his youth both Hamlet and King Lear succeeded on stage, and for his participation in the film story about a playwright in love, the performer again had the opportunity to receive the award mentioned above.

Appearance and talent helped Tom convincingly embody the images of American politicians, and English milords, and generals, as well as easily transform into a gangster or a villain. As he stated in an interview with inimitable originality:

In general, his answers to questions regarding the professional side of his biography can be read: he refused from The Lord of the Rings, because he had to be away from his family for a long time, and agreed to the offer to play Belle due to the fact that the shooting took place not far from home.

The filmography in different years was supplemented by the favorite and memorable "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", "Batman: The Beginning", "The Lone Ranger", "The Grand Budapest Hotel", "Rock and Roll Player", "Six Demons Emily Rose". Produced by Oprah Winfrey and Brad Pitt, Selma, featuring Wilkinson, won an Oscar for Best Song, and Snowden was added two years later.

The attitude to universal recognition and fame expresses succinctly and restrainedly:

The characters of two video games also speak in the voice of the actor.

Information for those who were tortured by their relatives with instructions to marry or marry only before the age of 30 - Tom Wilkinson got married at 40. And since January 1988, he has been quite happy with his only wife Diana Hardcastle, whose fateful meeting at First Among Equals turned into a serious feeling.

The woman gave her husband two girls - Alice (1989) and Molly (1992). The youngest daughter, in all likelihood, was named after Tom's teacher at school. There is no detailed information about the field of activity, but it is known that the mother would not want the children to follow in the footsteps of famous parents.

In 2016, the media wrote that the couple planned to celebrate the pearl wedding anniversary with a second wedding ceremony and again give each other the vows of the bride and groom. The secret of a happy personal life, they say, lies in trust and mutual understanding. An interesting fact: the couple played together in the TV series The Kennedy Clan and The Marigold Hotel.

In the winter of 2018, the premiere of the biographical drama The Happy Prince took place, which took part in the Berlin Film Festival. The film, named after the work of the writer, tells about the end of the earthly journey of Oscar Wilde, who is trying to cope with the disease with the help of inexhaustible irony and a sense of humor. Wilkinson added the cast for the film.

In the same year, the world learned about "The Spy Game" and "Burden", where the actor also took part. Tom admitted that when he chooses between the characters in which to reincarnate, he asks questions related not to a possible fee, the name of the director or other characters, but to intuition:

2018 - The Happy Prince 2018 - The Spy Game 2016 - Snowden 2011 - The Kennedy Clan 2008 - Operation Valkyrie 2008 - John Adams 2005 - The Six Demons Emily Rose 2005 - Batman Begins "2004 -" Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind "2001 -" In the Bedroom "2000 -" The Patriot "1998 -" Shakespeare in Love "1997 -" Wilde "1997 -" Oscar and Lucinda "1997 -" Male Striptease "
