This year's Oscars have been extraordinary in terms of the actors who've gone that extra mile, with Cate Blanchett working with a specialist movement coach and Brendan Fraser spending five hours in make-up for The Whale. SkyKatieSpencer reports 👇
In the Golden State - where it sometimes seems everyone looks like a movie star - it's not only acting talent which stars are judged on for the Oscars, often it's the scale of their transformation.
This year's nominations have been extraordinary in terms of the leading actors who've gone that extra mile. Step forward Cate Blanchett - who not only learned to speak German but had to brush up on her piano-playing skills - and, most impressively, convincingly led a philharmonic orchestra for"Keep the top half more loose," conductor Natalie Murray Beale whispers as I stand in front of the Royal College of Music orchestra while they, with an element of pity, attempt to keep time with my flailing hands.
Later Beale - a professor at the Royal College of Music and conducting supervisor on Tar - explains how Blanchett really did demonstrate a unique set of skills. "Everything she's conducting is accurate and precise and her hands and her body are in the right space but, even more than that, I think that what she inhabits emotionally and the communication with the orchestra is extraordinary. And that's a very, very special skill."
