Movie game. Nicholas Hoult


Movie game. Nicholas Hoult In the wonderful Movie Game from Scarletty , I got Nicholas Hoult, an actor better known to me from film news than from his roles. It was all the more interesting for me to watch films with his participation.

I first saw Nicholas as Kenny in one of the best (IMHO) films of the last decade - Tom Ford's A Single Man. The role is interesting and controversial, Holt played it well and looked decent - but compared to Firth, everyone still faded. Then there was X-Men, my beloved franchise about mutants with superpowers, where Nicholas played the role of Dr. Hank McCoy, nicknamed the Beast, a huge blue shaggy mutant with a ferocious face and a kind heart. Again, my hero is in good company there.

My closer acquaintance with Nicholas took place several years ago, when on our first date the gentleman invited me to the cinema. He chose the film, so I found out about what we were going to watch already at the cinema. And we were supposed to watch “Jack the Giant Slayer”... Then I began to suspect that it was unlikely that anything would work out with him (as it turned out pretty soon, my premonitions did not deceive me).

What do you remember from the film? Nothing but the big and naive blue eyes of the main character. In that film and character, Nicholas is a very nice guy, but at the same time too touching (not in the sense of dragging him into a dark corner and touching him there, but in the sense of hugging him and crying).

Over the course of several years, Nicholas periodically came to my attention, but no longer in leading roles - because I usually don’t go to films like “The Warmth of Our Bodies” after watching the trailer. Maybe in vain - they say the film is funny.

What’s good about the Movie Game is that it gives you the opportunity to get acquainted with the work of those actors whom, perhaps, you yourself would not choose for mandatory viewing. Therefore, it’s great that I didn’t get, for example, Eric Bana - I would have had to watch his films for the third or fourth time :))

After such a long introduction, I finally introduce my hero:

Nicholas Caradoc Holt was born on December 7, 1989 in Berkshire, England. He is the third of 4 children in the family of a piano teacher and British Airwaves pilot. At the age of 12, Nicholas left school to focus on his acting career, having started acting at age 7. Among the brightest events in his personal life - from 2010 to 2013, he dated Jennifer Lawrence; after several attempts to renew the relationship, the couple finally broke up (and, it seems to me, they looked good together - so young, fresh, pretty).

For the Movie Game, I chose 3 films I had never seen before and decided to start from afar.

“My Boy”, 2002 (family melodrama)

The slogan of the film is “Growing up has nothing to do with age.”

The plot of “My Boy” is built around Will Freeman (played by Hugh Grant), an almost 40-year-old confirmed bachelor who has never had a wife, children, or even a regular job. He lives on royalties left over from his father-composer, and lives, it must be said, for his own pleasure - he meets women, starts light, short-lived, unburdensome affairs with them, without a twinge of conscience posing as a single father of a 2-year-old son in front of attending specially organized meetings of single parents.

At one of these meetings, he meets 12-year-old Marcus, the son of a single mother. The role of Marcus, as you already understood, is played by Nicholas Hoult - and he plays it perfectly! A charming and spontaneous cheeky boy, for whom friendship with Will means a lot and allows him to cope with the difficulties of growing up. In turn, friendship with a boy helps a self-centered man finally learn to care about someone and grow up a little. True, the heroes will still need to reach friendship - fortunately, young Marcus is persistent, purposeful and sometimes does not shy away from even blackmail.

I really liked Holt, I liked Grant, the overall picture was pleasant and warm, and won several awards. It turns out that Brad Pitt could have played the role of Will, but he refused due to the “unreliability of the story”... And it’s good that he refused, I don’t see him in this role and in general I’m indifferent to Pitt everywhere except for Inglourious Basterds. Rachel Weisz also starred in the film.

“Rule number 3”/Rule number 3, 2011 (short film, drama, comedy)

As one of the films, I chose this British short film with a duration of only 11 minutes - and I did not regret it! Quite an interesting idea - a film about how a young couple going through a crisis stopped talking to each other and now communicates exclusively through the game Scrabble. This is their way of talking, swearing, confessing their love. Starring Nicholas Hoult and Imogen Poots, the film has no Russian dubbing, but there is nothing to talk about, although some words in the game can cause difficulties. It was interesting to watch the characters lay out words on the board, using them to share grievances and complaints and conduct a silent dialogue. The more words appear on the board, the more unexpected revelations, the more enchanting the ending...

“Equals”, 2015 (fantasy, dystopia, melodrama)

I’ll start with the fact that I love dystopias, but I don’t like Kristin Stewart (Kristin, if you suddenly read this and get upset, somewhere nearby Brad Pitt, who I also dislike, is wandering around, if anything, he will console you). I don’t like her - the statement is too loud, rather, she does not arouse my sympathy as a person or interest as an actress. Therefore, despite my interest in the genre, I didn’t watch the film “Equals” the year it was released, but fate overtook me during the Film Game.

The miracle did not happen, and of the three films I watched, I liked this one the least. Eh, but Holt is so handsome there! You already begin to look at the dark corner with interest...

The plot is quite standard for films of this genre - the not-so-distant future, people's lives represent a kind of ideal Society, in the film called “The Collective” - a Society in which there is no war, hunger and disease, and at the same time there is no emotion. This is not new, this is how many science fiction writers imagine the future - to be a homogeneous mass, to march, to obey, and in order not to experience a feeling of fear - not to experience anything at all.

People in the Collective are equal - but, as usually happens, there are those who stand out from the Collective for some reason. In this case, those who are susceptible to Social Consciousness Syndrome (SSC), the manifestations of which consist in the fact that a person again becomes able to feel and experience emotions - from depression to love, against which suicides occur, are knocked out. The Collective treats such people with caution and fears infection, which is why the “sick” are sent to an isolation ward with the romantic name “Hole”, from where, according to rumors, no one has ever returned.

Nicholas Hoult in this film plays the role of Silas, who is unlucky and is a carrier of the Syndrome. Silas meets a girl named Nia, who has long and successfully hidden a similar illness from others (well, of course, this is Kristin Stewart, it should be easy for her to hide her emotions!).

There is a separate community of sick people in the Society, and some of them do not consider the Syndrome a disease. It is in this secret part that Silas is accepted. The authorities of the Collective (it is clear that universal equality, as usual, did not work out and someone rules the ideal insensitive crowd) in order to combat the Syndrome, invent a radical remedy - an implant that completely blocks the ability to experience feelings. The pair of main characters, of course, will try with all their might to avoid implantation. With varied success…

I won’t spoil the ending. The film has beautiful lighting, color and Nicholas Hoult. For me, there was no “chemistry” between the characters in the film, Hoult coped with the role quite well, and Kristen Stewart is Kristen Stewart, but she didn’t irritate me, although it didn’t make me want to spend on her such precious and rare emotions in Society either.

Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to watch another of the films that interested me - the 2007 film “Coming Down the Mountain,” in which Nicholas plays a teenager struggling with the world around him, who has a brother with Down syndrome. Surely the film is difficult, but I’m interested to see how the actor coped with this task - he is undoubtedly talented and capable of playing diverse roles.

In addition to his talent, over the years Nicholas has become an extremely handsome guy with a very unusual appearance (although from some angles he now reminds me of Ed Skrein), so I think now I will pay more attention to films with his participation :))

Thanks to Scarletty for the great idea and its wonderful implementation, and to you for your attention! It would be interesting to repeat something similar with music, I’ll have to think about it... In the meantime, more films, good and different, because thanks to the Cinema Game my list of must-see films has been significantly expanded.

Nicholas Hoult: 'Playing a zombie is like playing a typical Brit'

Interview

Nicholas Hoult © gettyimages.com

05/14/2015Marina Ochakovskaya In the fourth part of Mad Max, Briton Nicholas Hoult played a charming psychopath opposing the duo of Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron. Where the actor finds his role models, who his grandmother was and what he remembers about last night - in an interview with THR.

- Nicholas, how did it happen that from the lovely child in “My Boy”

and the heroic youth in
Jack the Giant Slayer,
you suddenly turned into a psychopath in
Mad Max
, going over to the side of evil?

— You straightened my creative path! (Laughs.) I also had the mutant Beast in “X-Men”

, a zombie in
The Warmth of Our Bodies
and a Satanist in
Dark Secrets
are very good preparation for the role of Nux.

— Last year you worked on six projects—few people can boast of being so busy. How do you deal with that intensity?

“I can’t handle the intensity, it handles me.” Before my eyes, all the work is mixed up in some kind of wild kaleidoscope: here I am, breaking away from filming in London, going down the meridian to Cape Town, getting into the car, dragging myself to neighboring Namibia to film Fury Road.

, I wander back and forth across the desert for five weeks and, without regaining consciousness, I find myself in the American state of Louisiana, surrounded by Satanists. Therefore, when they ask me what was interesting on the set of such and such, I honestly answer that I hardly remember what happened last night.

—Aren't you afraid of overstraining yourself?

“But I’m not stressed, I feel completely happy!” Since I first came to audition at the age of seven, this kaleidoscope has become a holiday for me. I’m doing what I love, working with wonderful masters, watching the world - is this exhausting? No, this is a color carousel. In the same desert it was hot and hard, but not as hard as for the same miners who do not clown around, but really work hard in the diamond mines of Namibia. Whatever you say, pretending is always easier and more pleasant.

— Your great-aunt was the famous British actress Anna Neagle. Did this influence your choice of profession?

-Have you gotten to the bottom of this yet? No, I don’t think there is any direct psychological influence, but rather common genes that push one towards acting. Even in early childhood, when by nature one is not supposed to think about the future, I felt an irresistible passion for portraying others. So it came true. Time has separated me from Anna, but I was lucky to play with amazing high-class actresses several times, so I want to believe that I would not disappoint my grandmother. (Smiles.)

— Within one year, you worked with Charlize Theron in two projects at once...

- (Interrupts.) ...And I was literally shocked by her versatility! As Empress Furiosa in Mad Max

she is generous with the grotesque, absolutely free in external manifestations of feelings.
In Dark Secrets,
she plays the only surviving witness to the terrible murder of her mother and sisters, and this nightmare closes her, drives her feelings into the deepest basements of her soul. A completely different character, but the same amazing skill.

— Recently, you have been playing more and more in fantasy or post-apocalyptic films. Are you so tired of reality?

- In no case! In all these nightmares I am trying to find a solid foundation from the life I know.

— And in “The Warmth of Our Bodies”

, where did you play zombies?!

- And this was actually the easiest thing! Who is a zombie? This is a creature with a rich inner world that cannot break out because it is restrained by the very nature of this creature. Well, how far is this from the typical Briton? (Laughs contagiously.) And if you need to try on the post-apocalyptic world, just go to the door of any store when there is a sale - you can shoot from life. Seriously speaking, the world of the grotesque is nothing more than our everyday life, put under a magnifying glass, plus high-quality makeup for the heroes. Purely visually, these paintings look unusual, but they always have the right psychological underside. "Jack the Giant Slayer"

is not only a fairy tale with action elements, but also a textbook on how a young man should behave when his beloved is in danger.
“The Warmth of Our Bodies”
is not only a thriller, but also a love story about a couple from different social strata.
“Fury Road”
is an action game that warns of the need to control yourself under any conditions.

"Road of Fury"

directed by George Miller, creator of the cult original
Mad Max
with Mel Gibson. Was he trying to compare the current group with those who stood in front of the camera 35 years ago?

“In addition to his talent, George is also distinguished by a sharp mind, so he didn’t try to do it. Thirty-five years ago, not only the filming technique was different, but also the style of acting was different from today, the vision of the post-apocalypse was different, the role of women in society was different. No, Miller placed us in a modern crazy world without regard to the past, he made us laugh and frightened us with today's jokes and today's horror stories.

— How did you feel when you found out that “Fury Road”

will be shown in the out-of-competition program of the Cannes Film Festival?

- First of all, it’s a surprise - action is not so often given a place in such prestigious shows. And then it dawned on me: obviously, our film was not so simple and entertaining, since the organizing committee found it worthy of showing. And then I felt a proud satisfaction, which, unfortunately, quickly evaporated, since I had to run to another set. It’s a pity, of course, I would still be proud of myself...
