Seventeen years after being nominated for an Oscar for his role in winning Secrets and Lies Mike Leigh, Marianne Jean-Baptiste London returned to the London stage. Here, he talks about his own brand of spirituality, motherhood and why she decided to continue her career in the United States
Marianne Jean-Baptiste is back. It is on the star point of the production of the National James Baldwin The Amen Corner , and there is a feeling that it is finally in place. Jean-Baptiste has made history: he was nominated for a Golden Globe for her role in Mike Leigh's film Secrets & Lies
(1996) and was first black British actress to be nominated for an Oscar. However, we have not seen on stage in years. His return is a cause for celebration. I hear laughter in generous hallway upstairs theater before clapping eyes on her - and I know to see it on the screen, which has the most beautiful smile. But as he enters the (not much bigger than a closet) National interview room, I feel a warning, and I realize that I can not download the main issues that had was planning to ask away - why that was out of the spotlight for so long? Therefore remained in Los Angeles and will not work here? What happened or did not happen? They should expect.
Everyone who saw Secrets & Lies
remember Hortense young woman adopted an optometrist, who goes in search of his biological mother. Jean-Baptiste played with dignity, compassion and humor. She remained calm during the search was upset that Cynthia, who turned out to be flaky, smoking a cigarette and White (played by Brenda Blethyn). It was a performance that went straight to the heart. However, in 1997, shortly after the Oscar nomination, Jean-Baptiste was strangely excluded from a group of actors - ostensibly best of Britain - selected to go to Cannes to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the festival (
Secrets & Lies won the Palme d'Or at Cannes). Protested in
Guardian :. "The old operating industry have no idea of ??having to reconcile with the fact that Britain is no longer completely white place where people ride horses, wear robes, drinking tea. The national dish is fish and chips and no, it's curry. "
Now he had accepted an invitation to work in Los Angeles. "What am I supposed to do?" She then asked. "Go and repertory theater in Scunthorpe?" She made many films and is best known for her role as FBI agent Vivian Johnson in the CBS TV series
Without a Trace
. But this is not what it should be:. A British family name
46 years young is difficult - not at all like Hortense Secrets & Lies
. Hortense was half his age, but wearing clothes squares. Jean-Baptiste is not, and has a modern hair cut, wears a big ring and nail polish lavender. In 1965, the theater plays Margaret Baldwin, pastor of a church in Harlem, which left her alcoholic husband and found God sister. The game is what happens when the alcoholic husband is still (and almost adult) and reveals that he is the one who has been abandoned (not the story of Margaret was said). I suggest that for the power of work, in real life Margaret may have had reason to leave an alcoholic husband? "I do not think Baldwin says he has done wrong. Do not get it from him. It shows a woman who has decided to save "I disagree: Baldwin takes sides and back Lucas - drunkenness, jazzy, faithful husband This is a dead end - then go ahead
Jean-Baptiste grew up in South London, the daughter of a mother in Antigua and St Lucian father who came to the UK in the 1950s. His father was a laborer and foreman, his mother is "more jobs, in addition to being a nursing assistant." She grew up with an older sister and two brothers. It was a musical home. Maybe that it refers to the line in the game where the jazzy husband said: "The music you have to do, if you must." She said, "I totally relate to this music is something that I could not live without my father was in the music, played for fun -. guitar, I started to play jazz piano, singing with many great musicians here ... London before his departure for the United States and I am always piano lessons every Wednesday. "
adds that it is waiting while being tested, but he plans to keep it via Skype. I try to understand to compose music. It is warm and modern, seems to consider the matter as a potential loop. It was the soundtrack of Mike Leigh girls today (1997) - "a mixture of voice - .. Material Coral I can not define it does not want to define it. " But she sings like an angel. (Listen to his last flight on YouTube.)
When we talk about other people begin to relax. She knows the direction of Rufus Norris and lovingly described and compared with their enthusiasm for "jump on a child without shoes" disarming also reports:. "He says he does not know much, which is nice and refreshing. " Margaret must be a difficult role. Is it religious - that could help you? It is: "Religion has nothing to do with spirituality" And he described as spiritual? "I would not describe me. ... I believe in a higher power and that there are many paths to a particular destination is a religion of kindness -. And honesty "She visited churches Los Angeles where" the atmosphere is amazing sometimes hysterical from the outside, but when you're inside -. .. Beautiful "
