Cate Blanchett Calls for Hope in Times of Uncertainty at TIME Women of the Year Galaate Blanchett dazzled at TIME’s second annual Women of the Year event, held in Los Angeles on Tuesday to honor a range of women who have made deep impacts in their work.
“As one gets older you feel less in control. As women we often feel like do we need to be in control of everything. Often need to be in control of things individually,” she said. “What has really rung home for me tonight is the only way forward is to try and let go of control.”She made her toast to “not only the women in this room right now but to the millions and millions of women who should be standing at this mic, who should be in this room.
Blanchett said that one of the strongest skill actors can present is a quality of listening well to others. “To be a good storyteller you need to listen to the stories that have not been told,” she said. She said the honorees “inspire her” and use their platforms to elevate and have stories heard. Citing the writer Rebecca Solnit, Blanchett talked about the power of hope in the dark. “The greatest act of courage is to be hopeful.”
