Swinton is frequently lauded for her exceptional talent and bravery on screen. The Guardian refers to her as “one of the most gifted and fearless actors of her generation,” while The New Yorker describes her as “the avant-garde’s Garbo, a living embodiment of ideas.” Roger Ebert praises her as a “fearless actress who takes big risks in her films,” and the Sydney Morning Herald labels her as someone who plays more adventurous characters than most other actors in cinema. The New York Times goes even further, calling her not just an exciting performer but also one of the great living theorists of performance, delivering “daring, shape-shifting acting.
She is a highly acclaimed actress who has won numerous prestigious awards such as the Academy Award, BAFTA Award, European Film Award, Berlin Film Festival’s Best Actress Prize, British Independent Film Awards’ Richard Harris Award for Outstanding Contribution by an Actor, BAFTA LA’s Britannia Award for British Artist of the Year, Telluride Film Festival’s Silver Medallion, a Museum of Modern Art Film Benefit special tribute, a British Film Institute Fellowship and the Venice Film Festival’s Golden Lion for lifetime achievement. In 2020, she was selected by the film critics of the New York Times as one of the 25 greatest actors of the 21st century.
During a chat at The Hollywood Reporter’s L.A. headquarters, the 64-year-old actress looked back on her early career, spent in partnership with avant-garde filmmaker Derek Jarman, and explained how their collaborative style has influenced her filmmaking ever since his passing. She also discussed how she prefers selecting people over projects, resulting in a diverse filmography that spans from highbrow art house films to massive blockbusters. Furthermore, she shared her reasons for being attracted to her latest project, Pedro Almodóvar’s first English-language feature – The Room Next Door – where she portrays a terminally ill woman who recruits an old friend (played by Julianne Moore) to help her end her life on her own terms. Additionally, she talked about various other aspects of her career and experiences.
