This is our another Project! In this project, I listened to Nicole KIDMAN’s interview with Mark Lawson on BBC radio and now I would like to share it with you!

In Rabbit Hole, Nicole Kidman plays a grieving mother and her performance earned her an Oscar nomination for Best Leading Actress. In a rare interview, she discussed the emotional sides of her role with Mark Lawson on BBC radio 4, 27 January 2011.

At the beginning of the interview, Mark Lawson firstly states that parents had to deal with the grief in the film as their child died and asks whether it is disturbing for her or not. She says she was really disturbed on such a deep level and it was walking thorough something probably one of her biggest fears but there was also an enormous hope in the film.

When we think about the film, there are some difficult stages to play and she says that actors are educated with great scenes in acting schools but most of the films conflict with what they learn as they play their roles sometimes in dark places and in more difficult conditions, particularly for a woman. However, they get experienced and learn much more things in this way.

She accepts in some parts of her roles there is something that she says “I shouldn’t have done this” but she also says this is part of being an actor as they are spontaneous and she is also rapid.

As an Australian actor, she says she has difficulty in doing American accent while she says English accent is far easier for her but she also states that she started doing accent when she was 16, as it is required for all actors.

If I were the interviewer, I would ask;

1. What would you want to be if you were not an actress?

2. Do you think that the roles you play affect your life?
