"God, I'm talking a lot. Shut me up." Cate, are you kidding? It's been very interesting hearing your thoughts on different processes in acting and filmmaking and trends, and some of the big social topics of the day.

Cate Blanchett is the epitome of grace.

how could anyone, man or woman, NOT fall in love with Cate Blanchett??? She is the sexiest woman I've seen in a ages, and in this movie she doesn't hold back anything.

When I watched "Carol", the most powerful moment for me was when the character Carol Aird told they attorneys that she would not live against her own grain and made the vulnerable request that she be allowed to visit with her daughter even if it had to be supervised.

I learn so many things whenever I listen to Cate's interviews. She uses so many words that I've rarely heard in casual conversation.
On top of that, she often talks about the role of fear in her life and it amazes me that she can be so candid about it. It's slowly inspiring me to take more risks, or bigger risks.

Damn she's so intelligent, insightful, funny and warm. Very inspirational. Another fantastic interview, David Poland!

OMG she is so freaking gorgeous and talented.

@warriorbard 10 years ago

She is wickedly funny and absurdly intelligent. What I wouldn't give to be able to sneak a peak inside her mind - it must be an absolutely fascinating place.

You know my drama techer told me the other day a true artist is a person who doesn't know wht he'll do tomorrow and where they day will lead. I don't think I've ever heard of someone who has more artistic spirit than Cate. It was a fantastic interview thank you so much for making it!

What an extraordinarily candid intelligent interview! Cate is without question the most articulate actor alive. What I find fascinating about her beauty, which is boundless in it's immensity, is that she grows more beautiful as she ages. This fact speaks to how one sees and defines beauty. Her radiant intellect continues to evolve in ways that are so deeply sensitive. I had the great fortune to see her live in "Street Car Named Desire," and seeing her on stage gives one insight into what is most important to her. Story telling with a live audience is what thrills her. She manages to bring her stage sensibility to the screen in the way she collaborates with all of the players in film making. She is for me the most interesting actor living today.

Fantastic interview! Thank you. It was insightful, done in a calm atmosphere and respectful in regard to the actress and her work, but still funny and very interesting on many different levels. That's how you do a balanced interview. What a charming and sophisticated woman Cate Blanchett is. I could listen to her for hours.
