Born into a family of thespians, Kate Winslet came into her talent at an early age. She scored her first professional gig at 11, dancing opposite the Honey Monster in a commercial for a kids' cereal. She started acting lessons around the same time, which led to formal training at a performing arts high school. Over the next few years she appeared on stage regularly and landed a few bit parts in sitcoms. Her first big break came at age 17, when she was cast as an obsessive adolescent in Heavenly Creatures (1994.)
The next year, Winslet received both a British Academy Award and an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of
Marianne Dashwood in Sense and Sensibility.
The role that transformed Winslet from art house attraction to international star was Rose DeWitt Bukater, the passionate, rosy-cheeked aristocrat in James Cameron 's Titanic (1997.)
This performance also garnered a Best Actress nomination, making her the youngest actress to ever receive two Academy nods. |
