excerpt from article about sarah polley and her experience as a child actor

Almost twenty years ago, Polley considered making a documentary about former child actors, and interviewed several adults who, like her, had been stars in grade school. In 2011, Polley told me, “My memory—and it’s a genuine memory—is that I really wanted to do it as a little, little kid, and that my parents were jaded about the industry, and they knew better and resisted, but I had a will of steel and forced my way into it.” All her interview subjects had told the same story, she explained: “There’s not a single child actor you’re going to meet who’s going to say, ‘My parents pushed me into it’—even if they have terrible stories about their parents being stage parents. Shirley Temple, who started when she was a toddler, insisted that she forced her way into this. I frankly don’t believe it. And so, if I don’t believe their stories, why do I believe my own?”

Indeed, Polley’s family history belies the notion that she chose to act professionally. John Buchan, Polley’s brother, the second of two children from Diane Polley’s first marriage, told me, “We were all child actors. We can all find pictures of ourselves with our names and the color of our eyes and a phone number listed on the back.” Buchan did a little TV work, as did their sister Joanna and their brother Mark. “But, with Sarah, she hit the big one,” Buchan said.

Polley started acting at the age of five, appearing in a live-action Disney movie, “One Magic Christmas.” She was subsequently cast in many television roles, including a stint as Ramona Quimby in a series adapted from Beverly Cleary’s novels. In 1988, when Polley was nine, she played Sally Salt, the diminutive sidekick of the eponymous antihero of “The Adventures of Baron Munchausen,” a zany spectacular written and directed by Terry Gilliam, of “Monty Python” fame. Gilliam was an idol to Polley’s parents—particularly her father, Michael, who was born and raised in England.

The shoot took place largely at Cinecittà Studios, in Rome. Polley has happy memories of the city: she and her parents ate dinner every night on the Campo de’ Fiori, where she sometimes joined in with a band of roving musicians performing for tourists. The set, however, was often chaotic—and scary for a child. In one scene, she had to run through a mockup of a war-torn city as bombs exploded. The first take was terrifying enough to convince Polley that the detonations had gone awry; she ran straight into the camera, ruining the shot. For the second take, she was so frightened that she ran too fast, again rendering the scene unusable. In “Mad Genius,” an essay in her book, she writes, “I sobbed in my father’s arms in between takes and pleaded with him to intervene, to ensure I didn’t have to do it ever again. But when an assistant director came over to say they needed another take, my father said, with genuine remorse, ‘I’m afraid they have to do it again, love. I’m sorry. There’s nothing I can do.’ ” (Gilliam has said that, even if the set felt dangerous, it wasn’t.)

There were moments during her career as a child actor when adults, rather than just overlooking her vulnerability, appeared to cynically exploit it. Polley had only recently started work on “Avonlea” when her mother died—a tragedy for which, she says, she was entirely unprepared. (In her memoir, Polley writes with candid self-awareness of the gratification she took in being the pitiable child of a mother with cancer while at the same time being certain that her mother would recover.) During the show’s second season, Polley, who played a character named Sara Stanley, was presented with a scripted monologue in which her character cries over her mother’s death; unsurprisingly, she delivered an utterly persuasive performance. But the experience of this scene and others in which her character recalled her mother derailed Polley’s ability to mourn. “Because some of the first tears I shed about my mother’s death after the day she died were in aid of a performance, I was unable to produce genuine tears of grief for years to come,” she writes. In the aggressively wholesome world of “Avonlea,” which was made by Disney, Sara Stanley comes across as singularly sad, gaunt, and complicated.

Polley’s account of her life as a child performer—of being locked into extended contracts, and working “crushingly long” hours, and being beholden to adults whom she didn’t want to disappoint—raises disquieting questions about the ethics of having children act for commercial gain. Polley’s experience also underscores the fact that a child’s sense of volition—both in the moment and retrospectively—can be an expression of the sublimated desires of parents or other authority figures whom the child is eager to please. (The family, no less than the patriarchy, involves a structural imbalance of autonomy.) When Polley meets stage parents who insist that their child wants to perform, she replies, “Yes—and lots of kids want to be firefighters and doctors, too. But they must wait until they are no longer children to assume the pressures and obligations of adult work.”

2023 Oscars Trivia (Post-Ceremony)

Like last year, the Best Picture winner had a big night: Oppenheimer won 7 awards, as did Everything Everywhere All at Once. This post will use the word "consecutive" a lot.

This is the second consecutive year that a film won 7+ awards. The last time that happened was 1996-1998 (The English Patient; Titanic; Shakespeare in Love).

This is the second consecutive year that a film has won multiple acting awards. The last time that happened was 2003 & 2004 (Mystic River and Million Dollar Baby). The only other time consecutive Best Picture winners won multiple acting awards was 1953 & 1954 (From Here to Eternity and On the Waterfront).

Four consecutive Best Picture winners have won for acting, the longest streak since 1998-2002.

Oppenheimer is the first film since The Artist (2011) to win both Best Picture and Best Actor.

Oppenheimer is the 6th film to win both male acting awards and the first since Dallas Buyers Club (2013). The last Best Picture winner to win both male acting awards was Ben-Hur (1959).

Three of this year's acting winners have starred in superhero films: Emma Stone was Gwen Stacy in The Amazing Spider-Man, Cillian Murphy was Scarecrow in the Nolan Batman movies, and Robert Downey Jr., of course, is Iron Man.

Oppenheimer is the highest-grossing Best Picture winner since The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003).

Three Best Picture nominees went home empty-handed: Killers of the Flower Moon, Maestro, and Past Lives.

Killers of the Flower Moon is the third Scorsese film to receive 10 nominations and 0 awards (Gangs of New York, 2002; The Irishman, 2019).

Diane Warren continues to hold the record for most Original Song nominations without a win (15) and continues to be the woman with the most Oscar nominations without a win. She has lost six in a row.

Bradley Cooper is now tied for 8th place among individuals with the most nominations without a win (12).

Despite several nominations -- Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro for Killers of the Flower Moon, and Matteo Garrone's Io Capitano for International Feature -- none of the men behind Goncharov took home an Oscar.

This is the 8th consecutive year with at least one black winner, extending the record.

Da'Vine Joy Randolph is the 10th black woman to win Best Supporting Actress -- the first acting category to hit double digits.

This is the fourth consecutive year with at least one non-white acting winner (Michelle Yeoh and Ke Huy Quan in 2022; Will Smith and Ariana DeBose in 2021; Daniel Kaluuya and Youn Yuh-jung in 2020) -- the longest streak ever.

Cord Jefferson is the 8th black screenplay winner, and this is the 6th such win (all but one were for Adapted Screenplay).

This is the fourth year in a row that a woman has won a screenplay award (Justine Triet for Anatomy of a Fall, Sarah Polley for Women Talking, Sian Heder for CODA, Emerald Fennell for Promising Young Woman) -- the longest streak ever.

Both screenplay wins were the only wins for their films, and both wins included the film's director. This is the 9th year in a row that a director has won for Original Screenplay, and the 6th year in a row for Adapted Screenplay; both are records.

Kiyoko Shibuya is the third woman and first woman of color to win for Visual Effects (Suzanne M. Benson for Aliens, 1986; Sara Bennett for Ex Machina, 2015).

Neil Corbould, nominated for The Creator, Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part I, and Napoleon, is the first person to lose for Visual Effects three times in one year (don't worry, he's already won twice).

Billie Eilish (22) and Finneas O'Connell (26) are the youngest people to win multiple Oscars ("No Time to Die" from No Time to Die, 2021).

At 35, Emma Stone is the 8th-youngest person and woman to win two acting Oscars, and the 7th-youngest to win Best Actress twice.

Cillian Murphy is the first Irish Best Actor winner.

Christopher Nolan was the only individual to win multiple awards (Picture and Director).

Christopher Nolan is the first white man to win Best Director solo since Damien Chazelle (La La Land, 2016). Including Daniel Scheinert for Everything Everywhere All at Once, this is the first time since 2010 & 2011 that white men have won Best Director in consecutive years (Tom Hooper for The King's Speech; Michel Hazanavicius for The Artist), and that consecutive Best Picture winners have had a white male director.

The Zone of Interest is the first film from the United Kingdom to win Best International Feature. It is the fifth Best Picture nominee in six years to win in this category, and the third in a row (Drive My Car and All Quiet on the Western Front).

20 Days in Mariupol is the first Ukrainian film to win an Oscar.

Takashi Yamazaki is the second director to win for Visual Effects (Stanley Kubrick for 2001: A Space Odyssey, 1968).

Godzilla Minus One is the first Godzilla film to win an Oscar and the first Japanese film to win for Visual Effects (Tora! Tora! Tora!, 1970, was an American-Japanese co-production). Previously, the only Asian Visual Effects winner was Taiwanese-American Doug Chiang (Death Becomes Her, 1992).

This is the second time that only one non-Best Picture nominee won in a main category (i.e. excluding Animated, Documentary, International, shorts). The other time was 1997 (Best Makeup for Men in Black); notably, that was the year Titanic tied the record for most awards.

This is the second year in a row that the most-nominated film a) won Best Picture and b) won the most awards of the night. The last time consecutive most-nominated films won the most awards was 2016 & 2017 (La La Land and The Shape of Water); the last time consecutive most-nominated films won Best Picture was 2009 & 2010 (The Hurt Locker and The King's Speech).

This is the second consecutive year that multiple films have won 4+ awards (Everything Everywhere All at Once and All Quiet on the Western Front). The last year with multiple 4+ winners was 2014 (Birdman and The Grand Budapest Hotel), and the last time it happened consecutively was 2010 & 2011 (The King's Speech and Inception; The Artist and Hugo).

This is the third consecutive year that three or fewer films have won multiple awards, the longest streak since 1956-1960.

Two couples shared wins: Christopher Nolan & Emma Thomas for Best Picture, and Justine Triet & Arthur Harari for Original Screenplay.

Christopher Nolan & Emma Thomas are the third couple to share a Best Picture win (Richard D. Zanuck & Lili Fini Zanuck, Driving Miss Daisy, 1989; Peter Jackson & Fran Walsh, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, 2003).

Justine Triet & Arthur Harari are the third couple to win for Original Screenplay (Muriel & Sydney Box, The Seventh Veil, 1946; Earl W. & Pamela Wallace, Witness, 1985).

Toshio Suzuki is the second Asian winner of Animated Feature, and Hayao Miyazaki is the first Asian to win twice (Spirited Away, 2002).

The Boy and the Heron and Spirited Away are the only two hand-drawn animated films and the only two non-English-language films to win Animated Feature.

Pixar has lost Animated Feature three years in a row, its longest drought ever.

Holly Waddington is the first person since Mark Bridges (The Artist, 2011) to win Best Costume Design for her first nomination.

You’re amazing, you know that? You cooked up that hair-brained dinner scheme, defied your parents, lied to half of Avonlea, ran away from home… all so you could be alone with me. And now we’re alone, and I’m about to throw you out…

—Gus Pike to Felicity King, Road to Avonlea, “The Dinner”

FILMSZERÉSZ TOP 100 TÉVÉSOROZAT - 33. Váratlan utazás

Listát említettem a hó elején szülinapos Sarah Polley kapcsán a facebookon, de inkább jöjjön a széria, amelyben megismertük (listát majd kap jövőre).

A családi sorozat-specialista Kevin Sullivan leghíresebb, korszakos jelentőségű produkciójához közel 100 rész készült, s ezt az igencsak édes coming of age-süteményt 90-es években nálunk is tálcán kínálta a Magyar Televízió. Az érintett délutánokon milliók követték figyelemmel, hogyan illeszkedik be a cukiszöszi Sara Stanley Avonlea lakói közé a századelőn. Felicity, Hetty néni, Olivia, Felix, Alec, Janer, Cecily, Gus, Jasper... Ezek mind olyan karakternevek, amelyek több generációnak beégtek az agyába, s előhívnak egy így tán sosemvolt mesét az úgynevezett békeidőkről. Kanadából.

Valóban vastag rajta a cukormáz, amit persze meg kell zabálni, annyira jólesik. Ám alatta valódi történetek igazságai rejlenek regényes sorsú, ám hiteles emberekről - akiknek sokkal szebb ruháik voltak, mint nekünk.

Best Films of 2022. From my number one, Martin McDonagh’s The Banshees of Inisherin, w heartbreaking performances by Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleason, Barry Keoughan, and particularly Kerry Condon. a profound layered onion of a script in a film so distinctly Irish in the 1910s, about friendship, companionship, loneliness, isolation of place and self, and the stubbornness of men. Followed by such a beautifully and delicately made Chinonye Chukwu’s Till w amazing performance by Danielle Deadwyler, about a crucial part of US and Civil Rights history, and a mothers love for her child, the racist and horrific loss of her child and how she channeled her grief into action. My other favorite, Jerzy Skolimowski’s EO about the life and point of a view of a donkey told so touchingly and brilliantly. To Sara Dosa’s epic documentary about two volcanologists husband and wife, Katia and Maurice Krafft, Charlotte Wells brilliant directorial debut Aftersun, a coming of age story and character study of a young father and daughter, Sarah Polley’s delicate and powerful Women Talking based on the great novel by Miriam Toews with the best ensemble of 2022, The Daniels’ acid trip and touching character study of a Chinese immigrant wife and mother who escapes her disempowered present to many different worlds and selves, Todd Field’s Tar with a tour de force performance by Cate Blanchett in a film about the meditation of power. #bestfilmsof2022 #thebansheesofinisherin #martinmcdonagh #colinfarrell #brendangleeson #barrykeoghan #kerrycondon #till #chinonyechukwu #danielledeadwyler #mamietill #emmetttill #eo #jerryskolimowski #auhazardbalthazar #tar #toddfield #cateblanchett #everythingeverywhereallatonce #thedaniels #michelleyeoh #jamieleecurtis #womentalking #sarahpolley #miriamtoews #charlottewells #aftersun #paulmescal #fireoflove🔥❤️ #saradosa https://www.instagram.com/p/CpsZnSlOiIG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
