It' s weird how even this sincere one speeches are about ME. I was 13, I want to do what she does. And she sounds so much like a 13 year old with a big crush on her Ebglish Poetry teacher. She is so lovely.

"I remember the first time I saw Kate I was thirteen years old, and I went to the local movie theater to see Elizabeth. I remember when she came on screen and I can remember the feeling that washed over me seeing her with her piercingly blue eyes and her alabaster skin. Her serial grace and magnetism taking over the screen, even in her silence, even in her stare. It was one of the moments I knew for sure I wanted to be an actor, but more than that it was the moment I knew I didn't just want to be an actor, I wanted to be an actor like Kate. And from that day on I remember following her and watching her, being seduced over and over with every performance, each and every character just wildly different from the next. I never knew what to expect from her, I could never predict a line or a feeling. I would go looking for Cate Blanchett but Cate Blanchett was never there. It was always someone else, someone else that I had never seen before. I'm often asked whose career do you admire or if you could choose an actress who has had the most influence over you, who would it be, and I've always been hesitant to vocalize the one, or commit to a person. And there's so many influences worth fawning over, but the truth of the matter is the virtues I admire most about Cate are the ones I could never disclose publicly, I sort of liken them to private little treasures I visit for inspiration, for motivation, for reassurance or courage. This past summer, yet again, I went to a local movie theater, this time not in the town I grew up in but in the big New York City, and not as a little girl, but as a young actress. And I remember walking to the theater with all the anticipation one would have, having been starved of Cate for far too long. And I had recently been feeling a little lost, and uninspired, I was feeling frustrated creatively to be a woman instead of a man in this business. But along with everyone else who watched Cate I was once again mesmerized by her uninhibited performance of Jasmine French. A portrait of a vulnerable, unhinged woman caught in a downward spiral of despair. Confronted with such a wickedly complicated character, Cate had to be perversely disciplined and acutely aware of how deliberate and how precise her choices had to be. And I walked out of the theater just bursting with excitement and bursting with that same feeling I had when I was thirteen, that longing to be able to do what she does. Um... even if it's just a fraction of it. And I was reminded that no, you know, women in film are as interesting and as complex as men, they can be so much more actually. I read once someone describing Queen Elizabeth as far too aware of her own exceptional nature, to bow to any man. And I feel like the same can be said about Cate herself, and you know, as we saw, she once played a man, and probably better than any man could have. Um, Cate occupies this rarified air, this cloud of real estate that's marveled at from the ground by the rest of us, and it's been my true joy and inspiration to look up at her, to try and attain some of that grace and fearlessness that she possesses, to try to bring it to my own life and my own work. So, ladies and gentlemen, please join me in recognizing Cate Blanchett with tonight's prestigious honor of Performance of the Year." Rooney's got it baaad
Emiri Ninomiya nice dud... now i understand... english is not my language too and the other word i so hard to understand... but its ok... cate is the best...
I wish Cate would have started her recognition speech for Rooney with these words, when Rooney got the award at Santa Barbara just a few years later after filming Carol together.....because that truly would have been a full circle moment for Rooney. So sad Cate was only able to send a pre recorded message her way and not be there in person to honour her collegue. And imagine the reaction they would have gotten, had Cate started her speech with "Rooney, my dear....everything comes full circle " or "Rooney, my dear...there are no accidents.." because both sentences would have rang true.
rooney and I have the same age when I first saw cate from the movie elizabeth.. well, you are a very very lucky girl you make out with cate after 17 years of waiting. #jealouse .. congrats again for both of you, with oscar or not still for me you both really great and you really did a job very well. cate and rooney were very professional❤😍 cate is 46 turning 47 tho. i still lover her❤
It happens. Look at Beyoncé & Michelle Obama. They have a major appreciation society with each other but they are not lovers. Girl Crushes are very normal. I remember reading New Woman Magazine in which they say that they are good because they are a positive influence on you and they want you to be better and do better.
Yes, girl crushes are normal like you say Beyonce & Michelle Obama have but Rooney Mara's love for Cate Blanchett before Carol Movie came out is more than a girl crush. Rooney's speech honoring Cate sounds more like a love letter. As Cate says in the other part of the video " you can do my eulogy, I can die tomorrow". Rooney starring in Carol Movie with Cate only deepened her feelings for her. Cate said she fell in love with Rooney while filming the movie and obviously Rooney felt the same. As they kept their feeling in the confines of the movie and are now just good friends. Cate's 5 year old daughter's middle name is Patricia. Rooney Mara's given name is Patricia Rooney Mara... Cate and Rooney were seen on set of their new film Nightmare Alley on Jan. 2020
Such a phenomenal talent as hers can only be described as genius, I feel that she is the best actress under the age of 50 that we now have in the world. She is so grounded, articulate and unassuming. Hope to see her on the stage some day. Lovely to have this video and hear Rooney's homage.
