Liam Gaughan is a writer at Collider with a passion for classic films and the work of Steven Spielberg and Martin Scorsese.
It is often said that there is a difference between being a “great actor” and being a “successful movie star.” Certainly, earning notoriety as a public figure is not the same as being acclaimed for a series of excellent performances. However, Gwyneth Paltrow is a rare Hollywood figure who is both highly popular and incredibly daring in her projects.
Paltrow perfectly understood the tone of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, which was intended to be both a satirical collage of popular culture and a genuinely entertaining B-movie. Although the extraordinary action sequences are certainly enthralling, some of the most exciting moments in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow are the moments of romantic tension between Paltrow and Law. Her performance is a major reason why the film remains a cult classic.
It was a significant breakout role for Paltrow, who, at just 23, proved herself worthy of working alongside some of the industry’s most prominent talents. The ending of Se7en is absolutely devastating because of the emotional connection the audience shares with Paltrow. In a highly disorienting, chilling film that so often focuses on the dark side of human nature, Paltrow needed to portray a character who embodied goodness and empathy.
The wonderful chemistry between Hawke and Paltrow elevates Great Expectations, making the classical material feel fresh once again. At no point does it feel like Cuarón is trying to deny what made Dickens’ work so influential in the first place. However, the insertion of more modern stylistic hallmarks aids in making the film entertaining to a younger audience who may not be familiar with the material.
