At school, peers laughed at the girl's high growth and large foot size: Uma Thurman wears the 42nd shoe size, her height is 181 cm. At the same time, she is thin, her weight is 58 kg. But later, it was the non-standard parameters that became the actress's "feature" and the directors' fetish, which helped her career.

Quentin Tarantino often built the frames of cult films so that the actress's bare feet would definitely hit the camera lens. Uma's feet can be seen in detail in the video of the dance scene in Pulp Fiction and in the scene in the morgue of Kill Bill.

Uma decided on the future profession in her youth - the girl wanted to become a model and actress. At the age of 15, she dropped out of school and went to New York to study acting. She announced her decision to the family and broke a vintage mirror in the house for persuasiveness. Parents did not argue with their daughter, they gave $ 300 for the first time, a book about samurai and sandwiches for the trip.

The girl had to wash the dishes, work as a waitress to pay for acting classes. Then Thurman went to a modeling agency and was cast due to her tall height and non-standard appearance.

Uma Thurman's film career began with episodes in second-rate films. Then there was a small role in "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen". At 18, she received an offer from Stephen Frears and played a seductive bride in Dangerous Liaisons. The aspiring actress quickly became accustomed to explicit scenes.

Henry and June, featuring Uma, has long been classified as a pornographic film. A wide audience saw the tape when the ban was partially lifted. After the premiere, Uma began to be recognized, and offers from directors came more often.

Biography of Uma Thurman is closely related to the name of Quentin Tarantino. The actress's breakthrough was Pulp Fiction. According to rumors, Quentin considers this film to be the pearl of his work. Subsequently, when asked by the press about whether he had made something better than Pulp Fiction over the following years, the director asked in surprise:

For the role of a bored cocaine lady Uma Thurman was nominated for an Oscar, but did not receive the coveted statuette. But at the box office, the picture has collected 26 times more than its budget. After "Pulp Fiction" Thurman woke up famous. Uma's dance paired with John Travolta has become an iconic scene in American cinema. The actress could afford to choose scripts and roles, her fees reached $ 5 million for the role.

Another success for Uma is the role of Black Mamba in Kill Bill. They say that Tarantino postponed the filming of the tape for a year so that Thurman could endure and give birth to a child. In the lead role, the director did not see anyone but her.

There is a theory among fans that Tarantino's films are linked by a common MCU through hints, repeated names and actors appearing in different projects. Tarantino did not take another actress for the role in Kill Bill, not so much for personal preferences as for the integrity of the film world. Uma Thurman is also involved in the 2nd part of the criminal action movie.

A film about a fictional universe in Uma's filmography appeared with the superhero action movie Batman and Robin, directed by Joel Schumacher. She starred as a botanical laboratory villain in the DC Comics universe.

In the mid-2000s, the actress did not have many successful roles. In the film "Nymphomaniac" in 2013, she flashes sporadically, and the almanac "Movie 43", filmed a year earlier, became fruitful for the "Golden Raspberry". The anti-award for the worst film and 8 more nominations was received by the adventure thriller "The Avengers" with Thurman and Rafe Fiennes in the lead roles. However, for the best fight with the character of Anna Faris in the comedy "My Super Ex," Uma was awarded the MTV Movie Awards.

2014 was a more successful year for the actress. Uma Thurman starred in the series "Slap". She attracted the attention of the press at the premiere of the series, but the object of interest of journalists was not a new role, but changes in appearance. Thurman's wrinkles disappeared, his face looked tired and haggard, but noticeably rejuvenated. Fans also noted the star's unnatural facial expressions.

The paparazzi immediately started talking about plastic, before and after which the actress looked completely different. Uma Thurman did not comment on the operation. The journalists turned to plastic surgeons. Doctors, relying on photographs of Uma, argue that the woman was unlikely to undergo surgery with a serious intervention, most likely, Botox injections influenced the actress's facial expressions and wrinkles, the rest of the changes were due to the angle and makeup.

Relatives and friends of Uma Thurman claim that she did not resort to plastic surgery, but stopped using cosmetics, so her face looks unusual.

In 2015, the actress played a cameo role in the restaurant comedy Chef Adam Jones. Bradley Cooper played the main role of the cook, who failed in the profession, although Keanu Reeves was listed in the applicants. In the comedy series "Impostors" ("Like my wife") Uma has a supporting role.

In April 2017, it became known that the actress will head the jury of the "Unusual Regard" program at the 70th Cannes Film Festival. The organizers explained their choice by a 20-year career as an actress, bold roles and decisions of Uma Thurman. A similar film forum next year hosted an out-of-competition thriller "The House That Jack Built" about a serial killer who killed over fifty lives. Thurman played one of the victims of a maniac.

Journalists noticed Uma on the set of the comedy "War with Grandpa". The main roles were played by Robert De Niro, who speaks openly about age and is not afraid to play retirees over and over again, and Oaks Fegley. The picture told about the legal wars between the grandfather and the grandson over the disputed living space. Due to the harassment scandal that erupted in Hollywood in 2017, the premiere was repeatedly postponed, and the film reached the viewer after a couple of years.

With De Niro Thurman previously starred in 1993, in the comedy melodrama "Mad Dog and Gloria". Robert appeared in the guise of a crime photographer, and Uma - as his living prize, presented by the mafia boss in gratitude for the accidental rescue.

Uma Thurman has been a vegetarian since she was 11. The actress does yoga, tends the garden, frolics with her dogs and knits in her spare time. She calls knitting a workout for the brain, although she admits that finished things turn out to be "ugly."

For the first time, Uma tried to arrange her personal life at the age of 20. Spouse Gary Oldman was 12 years older, loved women, drank heavily. Uma's patience lasted for 2 years, and then she decided to divorce. Oldman then told reporters that his wife is an angel, and it is impossible to live with him. The actors did not have common children. British Gary, thanks to his marriage to a star, received American citizenship, recovered from alcoholism and subsequently married three more times.

The second marriage was also unsuccessful. Married to Ethan Hawke, a colleague in the film "Gattaca", the actress gave birth to two children: in 1998 - daughter Maya, and in 2002 - son Levon. This did not save the union, and in 2005 the couple divorced. The reasons for the divorce were not hidden: Ethan cheated on the children with his nanny and, in general, was not faithful to Uma.

Uma Thurman has problems with the circulatory system, the doctors did not advise her to give birth, but the woman endured and gave birth to three. The father of Thurman's third child is a Swiss financier Arpad Bousson, with whom the relationship lasted almost 7 years. During this time, the couple announced their engagement twice and canceled it twice. In 2014, the union broke up.

At the 2014 Cannes Film Festival, Uma Thurman appeared accompanied by Quentin Tarantino. The actress and the director are linked by a long-term friendship, the man promised the actress to always remain her friend. Nevertheless, once the director jokingly told reporters that he would like his life partner to be like Thurman.

The media suggested that the friendship had grown into something more. Uma and Quentin rented one villa for two and appeared together at all events. The stars allowed themselves clearly romantic gestures, held hands, Uma laid her head on the shoulder of her companion. Everyone who saw the couple felt the attraction between them. But neither the actress nor the director came out with an official confirmation or denial of the romantic relationship.

In 2018, Thurman joined the wave of disclosures by Harvey Weinstein, who also produced Tarantino's projects. She spoke about the harassment she was subjected to while filming Kill Bill. Quentin supported his friend and shared his memories that then he threatened Harvey to stop working on the film if he did not leave Uma alone and did not apologize.

In the autumn of the same year, the filmmaker married singer and model Daniela Peak. The muse was not present at the wedding. The relationship with Thurman came to an end when the actress shared the details of the accident that happened on the set of "Kill Bill - 2". According to Uma, she almost died while driving a car that Quentin allegedly knew about a malfunction.

Later, the woman agreed to star in Tarantino again, "if they offer a good role and an interesting script." The director made an offer, but not to Uma, but to her daughter Maya: the thriller Once Upon a Time in Hollywood with a stellar cast was released in 2019.

Kinodiva got the lead role in the mystical TV series "Chambers", which is produced by the production company Super Deluxe. The film is scheduled to be shown on Netflix. In the center of the plot is a girl with a transplanted heart. The heroine tries to reveal the secret of the death of the donor, but with his mother, played by Thurman, the relationship does not work out.

The war drama Soldier Girl follows a rebel attack on a Catholic school in Uganda and the kidnapping of students. They wanted to grow up the army from the boys, and give the girls into sexual slavery. The event took place in 1996 and is later described in a book by Canadian journalist Katie Cook.

Uma will appear in the form of a teacher-nun, not afraid to go into the jungle and enter into negotiations with the rebels. As a result, the woman freed 110 children from captivity. The actress, in addition to playing the main role, works on the project and as a producer. The filming process was delayed due to funding problems, but the money was found, and the film is planned to be presented to the audience soon.

In the film adaptation of the Eloise series of books by the American writer Kay Thompson, Uma Thurman played the role of a little girl's nanny. Filming for the film, dubbed "Héloise in Paris", ended in 2012, but the release was delayed due to the fault of the producer HandMade Films. The actress went to court to claim compensation of £ 6 million, because during this time she rejected other proposals and incurred losses. According to the lawyer, we are also talking about the percentage of the projected rental income.
