Natalie Portman won the 2010 Best Actress Academy Award for her role as an unhinged ballerina in “Black Swan.” The 29-year-old Israeli-American was considered the strong favorite for the award, having dominated the various awards shows leading up to the Oscars.
Portman trained five hours a day for six months to prepare for “Black Swan,” a project she and director Darren Aronofsky first discussed about nine years ago. When they started shooting the film in 2009, it had not secured any financing. Her character, desperately insecure and possibly still a virgin, contends with professional jealousies and rivalries as she secures the dual lead roles in “Swan Lake.”
The film was a commercial and critical hit, with worldwide ticket sales of more than $200 million. As a bonus, Portman last year announced she was pregnant and would marry the baby’s father, “Black Swan” choreographer Benjamin Millepied, whom she met on the set. She previously received an Oscar nomination in 2005, for her supporting role in “Closer.”
Portman’s rivals were four-time nominee Annette Bening for “The Kids Are All Right,” previous Oscar winner Nicole Kidman for “Rabbit Hole,” Jennifer Lawrence for “Winter’s Bone,” and Michelle Williams for “Blue Valentine.”
The King’s Speech, a 2010 British historical drama film, directed by Tom Hooper and written by David Seidler, has just won the 2010 Academy Award for Best Picture! It was nominated for twelve Oscars, of which it won four; Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Colin Firth winning for Best Actor.
History tells that soon after the King delivered this speech, other Dominion governments also declared war against Germany.
