Heh, she might be a *****. But in general, whether an actor has a bad reputation or not doesn't dictate my viewing choices. There's like no way on earth that she's worse than Charlize or Julia Roberts, and I still see their movies (when they look good).

Anyway, I've seen Ex Machina and Testament of Youth and she's superb in both. She's given an underwritten part in Ex Machina but manages to be very alluring and soft, rather than coldly robotic. It's like the mechanical aspects of the character only seep into a natural performance.

And in Testament of Youth, she carries a somewhat average film with a terrific character. Her Vera Brittain is headstrong and prickly but never irritating. We understand her frustration with the limitations for women of her era. And when the war breaks out, she displays a deep loyalty to her brother, friend, and fiance by devoting herself to nursing wounded soldiers, delaying the realization of her dream.

I just wanted to say that Charlize's reputation was never proven unlike Julia's. It's still just people putting rumours out there.
 
Well, for me, it's not rumor. I have heard about her on set behavior from someone who worked with her on A Million Ways to Die in the West.

Ok, but that's one of two movies where she acted out. If that's the standard almost everyone is a ***** including Tom Hardy but no one calls him that.
I just think people like to give her that image rather than, for example, a Reese Witherspoon or Sandra Bullock because they're America's sweethearts. It's easy for people to believe it or misinterpret her behaviour.
But that's just my opinion. :smile1:

True. "diva" behavior from men are tolerated/forgivable on a much greater scale than their female counterparts. Tom Hardy & Charlize Theron are great examples! Charlize may be a *itch but I doubt she physically attacks crew members as heavily rumored of Tom Hardy!

I'm almost certain she doesn't attack crew members physically. And there are as many stories about her bonding with co-stars (ongoing friendships with Jeremy Renner and Keanu Reeves) or treating people right but no one talks about this. People always like to hear the negative stuff.
 
Oh, I absolutely think Tom Hardy is worse than Charlize. I'm not sure why I'm being criticized for saying that Charlize has a bad rep, especially since that's never deterred me from seeing her work. I already said it doesn't matter much to me.
 
If she's a *****,we'll surely read other stories in the same vein.. I don't know,It's the first time I read this about her,honestly. About Charlize,there are actually many rumors, but yes, it's absolutely true that this kind of behavior from men is much more tolerated.

Alicia Vikander was hanging around Cannes busy acting not famous. Didn't want to invade but snapped a quick foto.

Yeah it's the first I've heard av being a ***** too. Idk what to believe since to me she looks like a nice person but I understand people point of view of her looking stand offish
:yes: I remember someone who worked with her on Son of a gun saying (I think it was on reddit) that she's reserved,a bit standoffish,but a nice person overall. If that's the case we'll read other stories... :p
