She's going to star as Bob Dylan in an upcoming bio pic? She's a great actress guys, but starring as Dylan? I don't think so.

It's true: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0368794/ Of course, it's a Todd Haynes picture, so anything is possible! Cabiria 21:14, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

I don't think she's "starring;" she's one of about 7 actors who'll play Dylan at different periods of his life. She'll be portraying a specific aspect of his personality, from what I've read, sort of his feminine side is the sense I got. Sorry, don't know where I got this info. She'll pull it off too, you know she will.67.170.176.203 13:42, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "australian academy award-winning actress"

i changed it round, cos i'm guessing australia has its own academy, and that could cause confusion.

An additional hyphen would also work: Australian Academy-Award-winning actress. SteveRamone 17:27, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pronunciation

Cate Blanchett "alters the pronunciation of her last name every third time she says it."

http://www.boxofficeprophets.com/bigpicture/index.cfm?bigpictureID=165

Is this really true? I've heard it pronounced a few different ways, most commonly with a slight stress on the first syllable. SteveRamone 17:33, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Awards list box

Some awards are listed most recent first, and some most recent last. I think it should be consistent, but different people have different preferences on this. In there a standard?Sterry2607 (talk) 16:41, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

I don't see anywhere people hold forth a consistency for this information. Even in some articles, the order of awards conflicts itself, like Meryl Streep. However, IMO I am inclined to earlier awards being listed first, as we can see in many other ones. I fix the box now, if anyone disagrees, I'm open to be reverted. @pple complain 16:18, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redundant section

Recently someone has added Awards and nominations section. In fact, this section used to be included months ago until I removed it because I felt it was a redundancy of information. All the awards and nominations are clearly mentioned through the notes of the Filmography, as well as in the succession box. Should it be removed again? @pple complain 16:10, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Picture?

anyone going to add a picture? does any one have one or know of one in the public domain? Adaircairell (talk) 13:53, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

It is sad that no free "nice enough" picture is available. I'm trying to contact with Cate's fan community to ask them permission for one of their images now. It may take time to get it done. @pple complain 16:46, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] WP:WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers priority assessment

[edit] Stunning Pic on Italian Commons

Hey - found a brilliant picture here, but it's on Italian Commons - could someone add it to US/UK commons and then add it to the page? Adaircairell (talk) 11:19, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
