There have been news articles lately saying Emma has been taking a class at RADA, or the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. Emma talks about this, and a photoshoot she did recently, in a new e.m.s. on her site.
Just five more days until Ballet Shoes comes to the big screen in the US. It is a limited engagement and only in select theaters. You can find locations in your area at http://balletshoesmovie.com/. Variety and Box Office both have articles about the movie.
And, if you still don’t know what Ballet Shoes is about, Chelsey sent us a mini review. She had an opportunity to screen it last week as a theater employee. There might be some small spoilers, so use your mouse to select the text below if you would like to read it.
At first I thought I was going to screen Cirque de Soilel, so I was quite surprised when Emma Watson’s name came up and Richard Griffiths was in the opening scene. I then saw that it was Ballet Shoes, and I got excited because I didn’t expect to ever be able to see this movie. Emma plays alongside two other girls as an orphan in 1920’s England, raised by a woman who was also an orphan herself. The plot is pretty much about the girl’s ambitions and their goals to raise enough money for their guardian. Petrova wants to be an aviator, Posey wants to fill her mother’s dance shoes and be a great ballerina, and Emma Watson’s character, Pauline, dreams of becoming an actress. Or as she says, she needs to be an actress. Emma did a great job of acting as Pauline. Of course, at first, I thought of her as Hermione, as that was all I had seen her in, but halfway through I truly believed she was Pauline. She seemed to really connect with the character and portrayed all her struggles amazingly. The other characters did great as well, but I had never seen them before so I didn’t have anything to compare them to. All in all, The movie was warm and heartfelt and had a great message. My only problem with it was that it looked and felt like a Lifetime movie. But maybe that’s good for some people if they like those movies. But I give my congrats to Emma Watson, who proved that she can be more than just Hermione Granger.
YAY!!! it's always good to hear from Emma!!! and i can't wait to see the photo shoot! well done on the review Chelsey! i already watched Ballet Shoes on you tube, though it will be way better see it on screen!!
aww thats quite nice 🙂 good for her (2nd!!)
I'm so happy for her,she's really a good person.I watched ballet shoes too last year,Emma's acting was wonderful. and about the shoot,woaa I can't wait to see her,I'm sure she will be stunning like always. 😆 🙂
Vogue!! GO EMMA!!
Go Emma!! You rule it all,and yes Emma is a really good person. Of course Emma is going to look stunning she always does in every single picture,and i can't wait to see those pictures. It is really cool that she went RADA,and i also saw "Ballet Shoes" on youtube last year,and i am also going to see it at the movies when it comes out,and buy the dvd when it comes out. I just can't get enough of Emma,and i love the book also,since i read alot.
There is no prove to back this story up but if it is in fact true… I would believe it to be a publicity stunt! Becuase Rachel Mcadams is coming out with her new movie she needs something to make her well known again. Once she is back on top they will part ways! It is called a publicity stunt! publicity stunt – an event designed to attract the public’s attention to the promoters or their causes. Publicity stunts can be professionally organised or set up by amateurs
shelly,What are you talking about?
So Emma has gone to RADA school for studying art. How interesting :wink:. Since Emma never mentioned before that she likes art :smile:. I think what Shelly means is that Emma did the photoshoot to cover up for Rachel Mcadams :???:. If I am wrong, someone please correct me :smile:.
It is great to hear from her again. It has been a long time. Great EMS as always. Glad she had fun in RADA and I can't wait for the new photoshoot. 🙂
lol.. who was that shelly talking about?? 😆
I remember that Em mentioned she likes art and we have seen 2 arts by her and what everyone's knows is on her official. 😛 😉
Yeah Emma is also a talented artist,and Emma is so talented at so many things,and she has good taste in books. Emma you rule,and are always going to be my favorite actress,and your the best Emma.
I love reading from her! 🙂 RADA should help her become an even better actress, and I already felt she could be truly amazing.
