DECIR QUE EMMA STONE (NOVIEMBRE, 1988) es una actriz de ensueño, es redundar en un concepto que ha rondado en la pantalla desde que, con su amplia sonrisa y su dentadura brillante, defendió su vida en un supermercado en "Zombieland" (2009), con su personaje de nombre Wichita.
Invita con su actitud a ser nuestra mejor aliada de aventuras. Su manera de actuar parecería provenir desde sus vísceras, como una reacción corporal que necesita ser vista y escuchada. De hecho, su primera incursión en el oficio de actuar fue el aprender a improvisar monólogos de comedia frente a su familia y amigos como método para combatir su tartamudez en la niñez.
"Ser tartamudo es como vivir con un impostor dentro de ti que nunca paga renta", llegó a decir Stone en una conferencia el pasado noviembre. Mientras un Oscar le aguarda a Emma en casa por su interpretación de la actriz novel en 'La La Land' (2016), este inicio del 2024 le trae nominaciones al Globo de Oro como Mejor Actriz por la película 'Poor Things' y la miniserie 'The Curse'.
Con rebeldía y frescura en los personajes que elige y sin miedo a caminar en cuerdas flojas sobre su audiencia, seguro llamó la atención del director griego Yorgos Lanthimos, quien la recluto para pelear por el amor de la reina (Olivia Colman) en el filme 'The Favourite' (2018), recibiendo una nueva nominación al premio de la Academia.

INSIDE JOB-"Hit Man"
Years before Hannah Arendt coined, in the pages of this magazine, the phrase \"the banality of evil,\" popular films and fiction were embodying that idea in the character of the hit man.
