Yeah she was and I have this movie still gets me everytime with her acting and she was nominated but Kate Winslet won for The Reader! I am also glad Kate Winslet won but Anne Hathaway won for Les Miserables for Best Supporting Actress*** However I do agree with you on Anne's performance especially when she talked about her brother Ethan and her character Kim just was acting out b/c she killed her brother by accident****
I agree. When Kym came her mom's home for solace, she soon discovered that Abby is also responsible for Ethan's death by letting him stay in her care despite being a drug addict. Upon confronting her, Kym pointed out that his death could've been avoided if she let Rachel take care of him. Abby mentions she left Ethan in her care is because she was good to him and admits her own hatred for Rachel in being a hypocrite for how she treats Kym. The fight wasn't overdone and Kym left in her dad's car sobbing hysterically because she felt that Abby didn't accept responsibility and apologize for her actions. After she came home in a police car and passing a sobriety test, Rachel is getting ready. When she comes across Kym's bruised face, Rachel realizes what happened to her without asking and lets go of her own anger to help her sister get ready.
I saw this movie like 7 years ago at the very first time and before this I never thought Anne is brilliant actress BUT after this monologue (!!!) she became one and still a huge fan of her!!!! I'm glad to see that she still got good roles and I was really really happy when she won her Oscar for Les Miserables!!! Go on, Anne!!!
Damn i feel for kym so badly because on one hand I know what she did was unforgivable but on the other hand like she was 16, so its hard when you are jugling still beeing underage yet dealing with so much responsibility of a huge consequence
Love hearing that ! This monologue can only work when delivered with care and ridding yourself of all ego. It’s about what’s between the words and that’s why it’s so powerful
Absolutely deserved the Oscar for this understated and authentic portrayal of mental illness and addiction; nothing about this monologue screams forced or trying-too-hard, which is about all I can say for her performance in Les Miserables. My god, was that an overblown trainwreck of a performance.
Anne won Best Supporting Actress for Les Miserables and she has the Hollywood Walk Of Fame as well. She was great in Rachel Getting Married. Kim was acting out b/c she felt guilty b/c of what happened to her little brother Ethan. She never forgave herself for what happened. So sad.
I never was a huge fan of Anne Hathaway, and hearing about her playing a drug addict i thought she'd be totally miscast....needless to say how impressed and amazed i was by her performance and the movie! absolutely brilliant!
No one should ever let a sixteen year old drive a six year old alone, whether they have issues or not. A new driver is a dangerous driver even if completely sober.
Really? This sucks! I started laughing out loud when she says she drove off the bridge. This is what you guys call good acting? Anne Hathaway has much better work.
I believe anne Hathaway should have gotten an Oscar for this movie. she was spot on brilliant in this!

I love Kate Winslet but she was not THAT good in the reader. Not compared to Anne in RGMarried or even Kate in revolutionary road
It was good fair enough, her makeup and nose job is better

Go on, Anne!!!
I love how she is including every detail. Almost like stalling before she has to finish the story and get the inevitable tragic end.
amazing acting
This movie was ahead of its time.
Absolutely
It REALLY was!

For so long this was a monologue I would use to audition ❤ producers absolutely loved it! -
I love Anne Hathaway by the way

Superb. I go to a 12 step program like Kym’s. Wow they nailed the real thing
Powerful.

I mean, it was theatrical because it was a musical and Fantine had gone through shit. But yeah, i agree this performance was more raw.
Anne won Best Supporting Actress for Les Miserables and she has the Hollywood Walk Of Fame as well. She was great in Rachel Getting Married. Kim was acting out b/c she felt guilty b/c of what happened to her little brother Ethan. She never forgave herself for what happened.

Heartbreaking
Powerful stuff!!!
very powerful
I really did like this movie

True but also..it’s a movie
Why the hell did they llave her ! And addict! babysiting her little brother what was wron with her patents
Really? This sucks! I started laughing out loud when she says she drove off the bridge. This is what you guys call good acting? Anne Hathaway has much better work.
KrazyKleptoCollecto Mars Woah, buttlick alert.
I also find it strange how impressed people are with this monologue. I like Hathaway, but find this very unconvincing
I do like this movie and performance, but it’s far from any sort of greatness. It’s good for what it is
The universe is subjective but I thought she was really good in the scene.
Some people think Larry the cable guy is funny some people think Armageddon is a great film I thought both of those things sucked.
pretentious
why?
