Shame = first time I sort of didn't mind Carey. I would say it must've helped her to be surrounded by such a completely horrible movie, but that didn't work when it was An Education, so she must have improved in the in between.

she was great in SHAME but i hated the film. just for once i'd like to see a *positive*, upbeat movie about some urban geezer who can't connect to people and bangs everything in sight.

time to revisit this? i'm afraid to re-watch an education b/c i'm afraid it won't hold up. carey mulligan also seems so much worse since she took up with marcus mumford. i mean, i don't know that i've seen much of her since then -- except for inside llewyn davis, i guess? -- but just the fact that she is married to him.
but i will totally see suffragette in which i gather she is the star but meryl streep showboats as emmeline pankhurst.

“Michelle Williams is in early talks to take on the role of rock icon Janis Joplin in a new biopic directed by Sean Durkin, the director of Martha Marcy May Marlene,” reports the Guardian‘s Catherine Shoard. “The film, titled Janis, is based the singer’s sister Laura Joplin’s book Love, Janis, which uses the singer’s letters to track her life from the coffee house roots of her career through to Woodstock, when she struggled with alcohol and drug addiction to cope with her sudden celebrity.”

A very long time ago I watched a documentary about Dawson's Creek, there was lots of interviews with fans, all the fans hated the character Williams played. Why is this? I watched a fair amount of Dawson's Creek and I don't recall there being anything wrong with her character.
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Sunday, 21 June 2020 23:08 (three years ago) link
i had no idea that she and phil elverum had split up, and that she was already remarried
― mookieproof, Sunday, 21 June 2020 23:21 (three years ago) link
The writers seemed to hate Williams's character on Dawson's Creek (cf. the way they killed her in the finale) but I couldn't begin to guess what or why the Dawson's Creek fandom thinks.

I've only seen a few episodes and know very little about the show, but from what I recall of the pilot she was presented as the stunningly beautiful troubled girl who all the boys instantly fall for, setting up the fans to see her as a rival to relatable girl-next-door Katie Holmes.
― Greetings from CHAZbury Park (Lily Dale), Monday, 22 June 2020 01:18 (three years ago) link
I lived in Wilmington while it was shooting and hobnobbed a tiny bit. Also watched the entire series almost 20 years later to look for people and places I knew there. AMA! lol Michelle Williams & her character are all time in my book. I couldn’t recount plot points bc it has been a few years but I remember liking her in general. No idea why the girl next door trope persists. I don’t know any girls next door aside from the ones in tv/movies.
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Monday, 22 June 2020 01:51 (three years ago) link
Yeah, the initial presentation as hot party girl could have haters I guess (ala Marissa on the OC... but no one on Gossip Girl) but that was undermined pretty quickly.
I don’t think fans disliked her at all tbh.
― Donald Trump Also Sucks, Of Course (milo z), Monday, 22 June 2020 02:47 (three years ago) link
Instead of bitchy party girl she was damaged goods because she had sex, which should be a reason to hate the writers of the first two seasons.

except that sadly that was a thing in almost every show of its kind in the 90’s

on celeb sites, there's all this gossip about how michelle williams got engaged, broke up, married, divorced, knocked up and married again to three different guys in the span of two years. amazing actress but she seems secretly exhausting

― flappy bird, Monday, 22 June 2020 04:25 (three years ago) link
for sure - One Tree Hill and Gossip Girl were the first ones I can think of that broke the mold a bit on the "hot bitchy girl" and sex fronts
― Donald Trump Also Sucks, Of Course (milo z), Monday, 22 June 2020 04:28 (three years ago) link
One Tree Hill was the second rate Dawson’s Creek that shot in Wilmington! The record store was my friend’s store!Anyone shaming Michelle Williams for decisions she makes in her personal life should probably stfu

I don’t disagree! And I don’t care at all about what Michelle Williams does - it’s just something that I remembered seeing on one of my feeds.

I love her in all the Kelly Reichardt movies. I just looked and amazingly, of all the stuff she's done, I think I've only seen her in maybe one or two other things. Brokeback Mountain, Shutter Island, Manchester by the Sea (lol all location titles!) ... Wait, I know I saw The Station Agent but don't remember her in it, same with I'm Not There.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 22 June 2020 14:53 (three years ago) link
The first time I noticed how great she was, was in Me Without You.
I recall that Dawson's Creek documentary having a fan reaction to each character and three or more fans said "I hate her" or something along those lines and I've been reeling in confusion about it for 20 years.
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Monday, 22 June 2020 18:12 (three years ago) link
I think it's 2020 and we can let that go because it was petty and hurtful -- and Michelle Williams obviously deserves better

I've seen a few films I found very overrated recently, so I might have been all set up to overrate Showing Up myself, I don't know. But I liked the mood, found everyone interesting, and am an easy mark for wounded-animal stories. I even liked Judd Hirsch for a change.

I find Williams performances powerful but a bit offputtingly flopsweaty - which makes her well cast in Fabelmans. Mulligan has some kind of blank screen non-charisma that for whatever reason doesn’t work for me. She’s fun in Blink.
― Chuck_Tatum, Saturday, 9 December 2023 14:25 (three months ago) link
I'd have to look at them side-by-side to explain why, but I found her different here than in Wendy and Lucy or Certain Women. I like Kelly Reichardt's contemporary films so much more than the two set in the 1800s.
― clemenza, Saturday, 9 December 2023 14:34 (three months ago) link
A Promising Young Woman is on Netflix, so I finally caught up with that. Definitely not a good movie--didactic, and so far-fetched--but it did hold my interest just for being so weird.
