Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with Diane Ladd, Legendary Actress, Starring in “Isle of Hope”
About Harvey's guest:
Today’s special guest, Diane Ladd, is a legendary actress whose monumental body of work includes some of the most critically acclaimed and beloved movies and TV shows ever made.
She’s been nominated for 3 Academy Awards for her performances in “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore”, “Wild at Heart” and “Rambling Rose”, in which she and her daughter, Laura Dern, made show business history as the first mother/daughter duo to earn Oscar nominations for the same film. She’s won dozens of international awards including The British Academy Award, the Golden Globe Award, the Independent Spirit Film Award, the Susan B. Anthony Award, and the Palme d’or Award at the Cannes Film Festival.
She’s been nominated for 3 Emmy Awards for her performances in “Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman”, “Grace Under Fire” and “Touched by an Angel”. In addition to her Oscar-nominated roles, some of her most iconic movie performances can be seen in “Chinatown”, “A Kiss Before Dying”, “Christmas Vacation”, “The Cemetery Club”, “Mrs. Munck, which she also wrote and directed, “Ghosts of Mississippi”, “Primary Colors”, “Joy”, and one of my all-time favourites, “The Last Full Measure”, directed by Todd Robinson who appeared on our show last year.
And, in addition to the 3 TV shows I already mentioned, for which she earned Emmy nominations, she’s delivered some of her most memorable television performances in dozens of shows including “Chesapeake Shores”, “Kingdom Hospital”, and “Enlightened”, once again co-starring the wonderful Laura Dern. She’s written 2 bestselling books entitled, “Spiraling Through the School of Life: A Mental, Physical and Spiritual Discovery”, and “A Bad Afternoon for a Piece of Cake”, which won the 2014 Tennessee Williams Literary Award.
And I’m very excited that she’s here to talk about her newest film, entitled, “Isle of Hope”, an unforgettably poignant and moving film about a mother-daughter relationship that takes a dramatic twist when the mother has a life threatening stroke and wakes up thinking she’s living 15 years in the past.
Our guest’s performance as Carmen Crawford, the mother in this film, is generating enormous Oscar buzz throughout the industry. And that’s no surprise to anyone. After all, the renowned film critic Richard Corless of Time Magazine said it best, when he wrote that this woman is one of the top ten actresses not only in America, but the whole world.
