| | Fametracker :: The Fame Audit :: Emma Thompson |
 | | Not so in Emma Thompson's case: in addition to being a genius actor, with the fancy awards to prove it (and which she won back when they still kind of meant something...but more on that later), she's also an ass-kicking screenwriter...with the fancy awards to prove it. | | | We'll be the first to admit it: we're so easily charmed by a British accent that it can convince us to forgive almost anything. | | | But we just saw her on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and it reminded us exactly why we love her: she's the bomb. |

| | Thompson started acting while she was still a child and later, when she was taking an English Literature degree at Cambridge, she wrote, directed, and produced the college's first all-female comedy revue. | | | After graduation, Thompson took that comedic sensibility to various comedy clubs around London with her own stand-up act that led to a comedy series on British television. | | | She met her (now ex) husband, actor-director Kenneth Branagh, when she joined his Renaissance Theatre Company. |

| | Back at the kitchen table, the temptation to gossip is compounded by the fact that I feel Thompson is almost a friend (we were contemporaries Camden School for Girls in North London; my mother taught her English). | | | I still have my copy: Edward Ardizzone's illustrations make Nurse Matilda look more like a doleful lump of coal than 'the ugliest person you ever saw in your life'. | | | She would never describe herself as practically perfect in every way.' |

| | For 'Wit,' Emma Thompson Supplies a Wit of Her Own |
| | That, at 41, she is younger than Dr. Vivian Bearing, the English professor who is the protagonist of "Wit" and who is meant to be 50, was not an impediment. | | | ONDON -- WIT," the Pulitzer Prize- winning play about a professor of 17th-century metaphysical poetry who is dying of ovarian cancer, is by no stretch a comedy. | | | Thanks to her classical British education and Cambridge degree, she was already familiar with the John Donne poems at the heart of the work, particularly Holy Sonnet Six — "Death be not proud" — which takes on a deeper meaning for Vivian as her own death approaches. |

| | Emma Thompson - Biography |
| | A more masculine Thompson, her brown hair shorn and wearing shapeless clothes co-starred in Alan Rickman's directorial debut, "The Winter Guest" (1997). | | | Thompson's performance as a photographer grieving the death of her husband and coping with her mother's interference was a strong one and allowed her to display aspects of her talents that had not been seen onscreen before. | | | Thompson starred in and wrote her own highly enjoyable 1988 BBC comedy-variety TV series, "Thompson" (on which Branagh made appearances), but it was her strong performance as the forthright heroine of the Merchant-Ivory production "Howards End" (1992) that catapulted her to stardom. |
