The award season is here, and we got the list of Academy Awards nominees. We all
are excited to see whether the movies we love will go home with their own Oscar.
Netflix earned several nominations across different categories. The front runner
with whopping 12 nominations, including Best Picture and Director, is The Power
of the Dog. Aside from Oscar nominee Bennedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst is
also playing a vital role in the Netflix movie. Recently, the Spiderman actress
talked about her role.

 


KIRSTEN DUNST ON HER PREP FOR THE NETFLIX FILM

One of the standout roles from the film is Kirsten Dunst’s Rose. Her portrayal
of an alcoholic is one the best we have seen in recent history, with NewYorker
[https://www.newyorker.com/culture/persons-of-interest/kirsten-dunsts-feminine-urges]
writing, “Few actors have played drunks as convincingly, or sympathetically.” 

When Kirsten was asked how she approached playing a drunk, she replied
[https://www.cbsnews.com/news/kirsten-dunst-the-power-of-the-dog/],“I would come
out of the house a lot in distress in this film. And so yeah, spinning around in
circles is a very helpful trick. Closing your eyes and spinning around in
circles, like, rolling … and then ‘Action,’ I’d just kinda stumble out of the
house!”

It seems that all of her hard work paid off as after almost three decades in the
movie industry, she earned her maiden academy nomination for playing Rose.
Kirsten gives the credit for her performance to director Jane Campion. “I’m very
director-driven, so I would have done anything for Jane. She could have talked
about this grey couch, and I would have done the movie – and played the green
pillow!” said the actress.
