so viola davis got close to 200 pounds to play ma rainey and got in shape again for woman king and nobody talks about it. we all remember how joaquin phoenix was praised for losing weight for joker. sexism much?
1) viola also wore a fat suit. 2) this tweet doesn't suggest that losing weight is to be praised. 3) white men are being praised for doing the bare minimum then behave like animals on sets while a legend like viola doesn't get the half of what she deserves.
Marvel knew what they were doing when they put Olivia Colman in this striking red dress, made her drink red wine and put an eye patch on her little owl that she named Nicholas Fury.

well it's a physical transformation that takes a lot of effort. it doesn't mean the rest of the work is less important or takes less effort.
but my point is everybody talked about joaquin everyday here and same people don't even care to listen now.
Remember when Olivia Colman had assumed that Rachel Weisz would merely gesture toward her for the purposes of rehearsal but instead, she unexpectedly made the grab, just as the script dictated and made Olivia ROAR.
That's her story.
