Colin Firth in his youth wondered what he had in common with others. Over time, I was more interested in what distinguishes him from others.

A wave of recognition and popularity has engulfed Firth after Mr. Darcy's role in the film adaptation of Jane Austen's novel Pride and Prejudice. The success was cemented by the award-winning musical "Mamma Mia!" and the film "King Speaks" based on the biography of George VI, for which the actor won the Academy Award, Golden Globe and BAFTA. After that, Colin began to star in projects on a global scale.

Colin Firth was born in the English village of Graschott, which is part of Hampshire. His mother Shirley Jane Rolls taught comparative religious studies at King Alfred's Winchester College. David Norman's father Lewis Firth taught history and trained Nigerian government officers at the same institution, so the family lived in Nigeria for a while.

Colin was David and Shirley's firstborn. He also has a sister, Kate, who later became a vocal and acting teacher, and younger brother Jonathan, who will follow in Colin's footsteps and will also become an actor. When Colin was 11 years old, the whole family moved to the United States, to the city of St. Louis. There the boy went to a comprehensive school, began to attend a music school in the class of guitar. He was later replaced with a tenor pipe.

Two years later, the family returned to England, and Colin enrolled in Montgomery Alamein High School. But here he faced ridicule and attacks because of his intellectual background. To somehow fit into the circle of peers, Colin learns a local accent, uses the jargon of the working class and drops out of school. At the age of 14, he is already confident that he will become an actor, so he was not interested in science.

After high school, Colin Firth attended Barton Peverel College before moving to the capital to attend the National Theatre and the London Drama Centre. As a theatrical actor he toured the country a lot, playing characteristic roles in classical plays. In one of them, the guy was noticed by the screenwriter Julian Mitchell and recommended to directors and producers.
