Annette Bening

American actress Annette Bening, who is in her sixties, is still as charming, cheerful and hardworking as in her youth. During her long creative career, the artist was nominated for an Oscar 4 times and twice won a Golden Globe in the Best Actress category.

Annette Carol Bening was born on May 29, 1958 in the provincial American city of Topeka, Kansas, in a large family. Her parents, insurance agent Arnett Grant and housewife Shirley Ashley, who sings in the church choir, were people far from the world of red carpet and spotlights. They raised 4 children - Jane, Bradley, Byron and baby Annette.

Shirley Ashley's passion for music was not in vain for her daughter. From an early age she showed creative inclinations, having inherited the melodic melodious timbre from her mother. The girl was invited to the school musical "The Sound of Music". She graduated from Patrick Henry High School in 1975, after which she entered the acting department of the University of San Francisco.

During her studies, the girl devoted all her strength to playing in the theater. She dreamed of becoming a stage actress, so she took part in many productions. In the mid-80s, Bening starred in the plays The Cherry Orchard, Pygmalion and Coastal Interference.

After her success in theater, Annette began to try her hand at television and film. She made her debut in the 1986 TV drama The Hunt for Claude Dallas. This was followed by minor roles in the television series "Clever" and the film "Hostage". In 1988, the actress starred for the first time in a feature-length movie - Comedy directed by Howard Deutsch "In the lap of nature".

And the very next year Annette got her first major role in her filmography. She played an insidious aristocrat named Marquise de Merteuil in the historical melodrama "Valmont" by Milos Forman. The on-screen pair of the girl was made by the British handsome actor Colin Firth. The young actress has proven herself so well that the Chicago Film Critics Association nominated her for the title of Best Promising Actress.

Bening received popular audience love in the 90s, this decade was especially successful for her creative biography. Together with Angelica Houston and John Cusack, she played a central role in the crime drama Kidaly, which brought fame to Annette and numerous invitations to projects from eminent directors. The film was nominated for an Oscar in 4 categories.

Дело осталось за малым - доказать свою разноплановость и умение вживаться в любую роль, чем девушка активно и занялась. Она изображала абсолютно противоположных по характеру героинь - заботливую и любящую жену в "Кое-что о Генри", femme fatale, разрушившую жизнь своему любовнику в криминальной драме "Багси" и милую лоббистку, перед которой не устоял даже президент США в "Американском президенте".

За роль неверной жены главного героя (его сыграл Кевин Спейси) в культовой картине дебютирующего режиссера Сэма Мендеса "Красота по-американски" Бенинг снова удостоена номинаций на премии "Оскар" и "Золотой глобус". В целом драма заполучила 5 статуэток, в том числе как "Лучший фильм 2000 года».

Во второе тысячелетие артистка вступила более скромно. Она вернулась к съемкам в телевизионных проектах, в которых не появлялась почти 10 лет. Ими стал мультипликационный сериал "Дети свободы" и драма "Миссис Харрис" об учительнице, которую обвинили в убийстве любовника. В полноформатное кино Аннетт стали звать редко, но метко, ей всегда удавалось проявить невероятный профессионализм, пусть теперь и не так часто.

В 2003 году актриса снялась в боевике режиссера Кевина Костнера "Открытый простор". А уже в следующем - в экранизации классического романа Сомерсета Моэма "Театр" вместе с Джереми Айронсом и Шоном Эвансом, получив за роль Джулии Ламберт "Золотой глобус" и очередную номинацию на "Оскар". Но, как и в прошлый раз, награду у нее увела из-под носа Хилари Суонк, исполнившая роль в спортивной драме "Малышка на миллион".

Далее Бенинг появляется в одной картине за год-два, но это всегда одна из главных ролей и всегда высоко оцененные критиками и зрителями работы. В 2008 году актриса снимается в комедийной драме "Женщины", в которой собрался настоящий "цветник" голливудских красавиц - Мег Райан, Кэрри Фишер, Ева Мендес, Бетт Мидлер. В следующем фильме, испано-американской мелодраме "Мать и дитя", она рядом с Наоми Уоттс.

А в 2010-м в ЛГБТ-драме "Детки в порядке" Бенинг сыграла доктора Ник, которой изменила супруга (эту роль исполнила Джулианна Мур). За достоверное перевоплощение в лесбиянку Аннетт получила свой второй "Золотой глобус", премию Ассоциации геев и вновь выдвинута на "Оскар".

In 2016, Bening starred in the crime series American Crime Story directed by Ryan Murphy, thus returning to television screens, and in the drama Women of the 20th Century. The latter earned her 8th Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress. Now the actress is less in demand in the profession, as it was in the 90s and 2000s, but this does not worry her much. Annette spends her free time with her family, doing yoga and going to church.

The artist's personal life has always been eventful. Annette Bening first tried on the engagement ring in 1984 when she married renowned choreographer Jay Stephen White. Their marriage lasted only 7 years, after which the couple filed for divorce.

In 1991, the actress began filming the crime drama Bugsy, where she became the object of the love interest of the famous gangster played by Warren Beatty. Passionate relationships from cinema turned into reality. A year later, despite the 22-year difference in years, the lovers got married. In an interview, the woman spoke about this:

By the time of the wedding, the couple had a daughter named Kathleen Elizabeth. In total, the spouses have four children, they still have Benjamin McLean (1997), Isabel Ira (1997) and Ella Corinne (2000).

The eldest daughter, upon reaching the age of 18, underwent gender reassignment surgery and changed her name to Stephen Ira. At first, for Annette and her husband, the choice of the girl was shocking, but after a while they resigned themselves and accepted their child.

In 2019, several films will be released at once with the participation of the actress - the drama directed by Scott Z. Burns "The Torture Report", the crime drama "The Worst Marriage in Georgetown" and the fantastic action movie "Captain Marvel" with Brie Larson in the title role.

Bening does not use Instagram, preferring the real to the virtual world. But there are many photos from professional photo shoots and from the carpet, in which the actress looks just amazing. Often Annette gets caught by the paparazzi. Pictures from the rest of the actress, in which she walks along the beach in a swimsuit, are striking - she has a magnificent figure for her age (height 173 centimeters, and weight 58 kilograms).
