Reason #99,999,998 Why I Love Kate


This quote from a NYT article on her role in Little Children:


"Among the things Ms. Winslet said she asked Mr. Field to retain from the novel were Sarah’s feet. 'Blue toenails!' Ms. Winslet said. 'It says so much about how tragic she is. She’s feeling a little bit sexy, she’s trying to make a bit of an effort, and she paints her toenails blue — not pink or silver or even gold. It’s so ’80s, it’s so teenage. It’s so completely without grace.'"


I been feeling like watching Little Children again... maybe I'll be less harsh on it with my expectations lowered now... Kate really was terrific in it. Too bad that Mirren-steamroller isn't showing any signs of slowing. One of these days will be your day, Kate!
