I have been a big fan of Jodie Foster and knew her to be a thinking woman's Hollywood actress. Somehow, the words brainy, thoughtful and educated come to mind when I see Foster on screen.
Yesterday's Golden Globe award ceremony confirmed that impression: Foster received the Cecile B. Demille award for lifetime achievement in cinema. A very young recipient of a very hoary award, but it was the graceful and un-Hollywood speech with which Foster received her award that stirs the mind.
True to her metier, Foster gave a thoughtful speech in which the actress, director and producer, addressed her personal sexuality and privacy with finesse.
The LA Times described Jodie Foster's acceptance speech as "obliquely playful, complex and emotional."
