Kate Winslet says she regrets working with controversial directors Woody Allen and Roman Polanski – AmoMama

Actress Kate Winslet regretted working with controversial directors Woody Allen and Roman Polanski in the past. She called them “shameful”.

Amid the coronavirus pandemic, Kate Winslet, 44, said her new role in ‘Ammonite’ caused her to reassess her career choices. She added:

“It’s amazing to me now how these men have been held in such high esteem, so widely in the film industry, and for as long as they have been.

Looking back, Winslet said she couldn’t change the fact that she was previously involved in their films. She starred in Allen’s “Wonder Wheel” in 2017 and Polanski’s “Carnage” in 2011.

Polanski and Allen are leading directors tinged with controversy. Polanski was convicted of illegal sex with a minor while Allen faced sexual abuse charges filed by his adopted daughter.

Winslet, one of Hollywood’s most sought-after celebrities, has kept most of her life under the radar.

Winslet’s new film, “Ammonite”, is based on the life of paleontologist Mary Anning and explores her relationship with Charlotte Murchison, played by Saoirse Ronan.

For the star of “Titanic”, the shooting of the drama-novel was a turning point for her. She realized that she too could express her opinions on matters that were important to her.

Winslet also said the film made him realize that women can achieve remarkable achievements just like their male counterparts. She is also committed to being a decent example for young women.

Not only did the film make Winslet proud of herself as a woman, it also made her feel empowered when she appeared naked while being associated with Ronan.

Even in her 40s, Winslet said she takes pride in showing off her body while filming, especially in love scenes. The mother of three said it was an opportunity for herself to be real.

It was a brave time for Winslet to have nude scenes as not all women could dare what she did for the film, fearing what society would think of them.

Amidst her successful career and popularity, Winslet, one of Hollywood’s most sought-after celebrities, has kept most of her life under the radar.

Despite his absence on social media, many Winslet fans are all told about his love life. The Oscar-winning actress has been married several times.

Winslet has been married to Ned Rocknroll since 2012. But before her current husband, she was married to assistant director Jim Threapleotn from 1998 to 2001 and to director Sam Mendes from 2003 to 2011.

Meanwhile, even after the filming and release of the movie “Titanic”, Winslet maintained a close friendship with actor Leonardo DiCaprio, his love for the classic film.

Although they did not take their bond in a romantic relationship, DiCaprio and Winslet have remained supportive of each other’s personal and professional efforts.
