Christmas is approaching and it’s time to return to the films that, year after year, we revisit during these times. Between The holidays (2006)Alone at home (1990), The Grumpy (2000) or How beautiful it is to live (1946), another traditional bet is generally Love in fact (2003), the film directed by Richard Curtis which has left iconic moments that endure over time and which have even been classified as “cult film”.
It is common that on these dates we play it even for the umpteenth time, but This is not the case for one of its most memorable protagonists.who hasn’t been able to see it since its premiere. We are talking about the famous actress Keira Knightleywho plays the character of Juliet in the story. Yes, the one with the confession scene with the posters.
“I only saw Love in fact once. I saw him at the premiere and never saw him again.. I think I was 18. So it was over 20 years ago,” the actress admitted in the podcast The Scott Mills Breakfast To show (through People) while promoting his latest work with Netflix, the film The woman from cabin 10.
However, the Christmas feature film is not the only one in his filmography that he did not want to see once filming was finished. “It’s funny, because my relationship with my work is very different that of the people who watch it. That’s the wonderful thing about these films is that they become people’s favorites and they watch them over and over again,” the British actress said. “I haven’t even seen many of them or I’ve only seen them once. It’s not a particularly pleasant experience to see your face in front of you. It’s very strange“, he emphasizes.
In fact, he even highlighted the acclaimed saga of Pirates of the Caribbeanwhich continues to accumulate fans and expectations for a possible sixth opus, in which the actress will probably not participate. “I never saw the third one. I saw the second one at a preview, but I never saw the third one.” And although we really liked her character Elizabeth Swann, the Brits joked that her face “it came out too close and too close” and that “no one needed to see that.”
It’s all about psychology and Knightley she is not the only performer which is not seen in the films. This sounds amazing, but others like it Nicole Kidman, Javier Bardem, Tom Hanks, Reese Witherspoon or his pirate companion, Johnny Deppthe same thing happens to them.
“A lot of people have never seen each other, so I find myself alongside them. I forget my films and it’s quite funny when people come and talk to me about themthat they know well and I am definitely into them,” concluded the actress.
