The more I see and hear of this wonderful woman, the more I am in awe of her honesty, ability and compassion. Total inspiration! I now have a growing list of films & shows that I've missed to be discovered and rediscovered. Great interview, and thank you Samantha!
Samantha Morton has been a very underrated actress during her entire career
What an amazing genuine person, beautiful and warm, so talented - love Samantha and grateful for her brilliant work ❤
I love Samantha Morton so much. She's so underrated yet her career is such a strong one. She's had an incredible 2022 indeed: she's in TWD, The Serpent Queen, Save the Cinema!, The Whale, and She Said. I hope she capitalize on the diversity of her roles to an overdue third Oscar nomination!
❤ Samantha! An amazing actress!!!!!
She is a fabulous actor
My favourite actor
Brilliant conversation! I briefly knew Samantha from Nottingham and she is a real role model in terms of an actor working on their craft.
Having spent time on the Screen & New Media Committee at Equity (UK) I thought Sam's comments were a bit harsh as, unfortunately, a long time ago a woman named Margaret Thatcher broke up the unions, so Equity is lawfully unable to be the closed shop that SAG-AFTRA is, and thus, unable to work in the same way.
Nevertheless, it's great to hear Samantha's Career Retrospective and her parting words of wisdom. She tells it like it is. It's also nice to hear those Nottinghamian vowel sounds on a SAG-AFTRA Foundation talk!
Thank you for this interactive interview full of great stories and what an amazing performer and actress you are and walking dead and spielberg. I had austin powers in the background and the speilberg intro where he says(o ye. My friend here thinks the movie looks just fine!) Lol🤣
MINORITY REPORT = MASTERPIECE
From Jane Eyre (she was amazing) to TWD! What are the odds?
What film was she saying as her favorite at 1:11:10?
L'Atalante by Jean Vigo
