psychology. This, she says, is what fascinates her the most. Being that Margot’s relationship with her sister in the film is the polar opposite of Kidman’s relationship with her own sister in real life, Kidman had to work to understand a foreign way of life.
“My relationship with my sister—we’re very joined I would say,” she explains. “We’re twin-like in our relationship and she’s a huge part of my life and there’s an enormous amount of support there. I really wouldn’t have gotten through parts of my life without her and I would say she would say the same thing about me. So the combativeness of this sibling relationship is what interested me because I think it’s fascinating when you have this expectation that when you are family you should be getting along. And I think there are a lot of people in this world that would say I don’t get along with my family and I should and I’m trying, but for whatever reason just because we have the same blood running through us doesn’t mean that we are necessarily the right chemistry together.” Speaking of chemistry, Kidman is currently re-teaming with Baz Luhrmann, her Moulin Rouge director. The two are filming in Kidman’s native Australia, and it’s a film that holds personal significance for Kidman. “I’m very happy to be in Australia,” she says. “I’ve been there since April making this film and it’s the film I dreamed of making when I was a little girl. I hope it lives up to my expectations because I wanted to make a film that’s deeply romantic, that’s got sort of a magical quality to it but that’s still is a sweeping drama sprinkled with some comedy, so if we can pull that off I’ll be very, very pleased. It’s also nice to be able to stand by a director you’ve worked with before and say let’s try to make something unusual and special.” Are there any directors she’d still like to work with? According to Kidman, the list is quite long. “I seek out directors who I’m curious about who I think are strong voices,” she says. “I’m not frightened of difficult directors, I’m drawn to that in a way, and I love working internationally…I suppose I’d really like to work with Scorsese. I’d love him to construct a film around a woman. I ask him all the time, I beg him!” For now though, Kidman is pleased with her choices. While she appreciates the fortune of her success, she much prefers creative satisfaction to big bucks at the box office. After all, a small film like Margot doesn’t come with a hefty paycheck. “Primarily I’m there for the long haul so I will do theater, I’ll do small films, occasionally I’ll do a big film, but I suppose my heart is about the artistic path and that’s what satiates me ultimately,” she says. “And it’s wonderful to have financial rewards and at the same time I’m in a place where ... |
