Apparently unrelated to her divorce-- from an interview with GQ:

In this moment, I say, it is impossible not to think of a particular Nicole Kidman meme (of which there are many): she’s probably in her early 30s, and she’s standing on the pavement in a pink top, basking in the sunlight, her eyes closed, her arms out, her mouth open as if she’s letting out a deep sigh of relief. Does she know the one I’m talking about?

“Yes,” she says. “That was not me; that was from a film, that wasn’t real life. I know that image!”

The story that goes with this meme whenever it circulates is that Kidman had just left her lawyer’s office after the dissolution of her first marriage. “That’s not true,” she laughs.

"a film".

Wouldn't it be trivially easy to confirm what film it is from the setting? It's not like she starred in 7563 movies...

[-] chaogomu@lemmy.world 34 points 1 month ago

Not everything shot for a film gets used. The director might say, "let's reshoot the scene with wardrobe B" and then you have a new take with a different outfit.

Simple scenes like that often take a few days of work to dial in just right. Or sometimes it's done with a single take and everyone feels vaguely off about it until they see the edit.

But that would require watching movies with Nicole Kidman in them

[-] Sergio@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 month ago

Start with Dogville if you really don't like her.

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

It’s rare that reading the wiki page for a movie does psychic damage and makes me want to see it

[-] Sergio@slrpnk.net 6 points 1 month ago

Then it accurately represents von Trier's movie style.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 5 points 1 month ago

That's... Pretty fucked up to suggest in that context.

[-] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

I liked that movie and her in it but it needed to be like an hour shorter... 3 hours felt overly indulgent.

[-] CptLawnChair@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Thanks for making me laugh like an idiot in public

[-] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 102 points 1 month ago

Obligatory, fuck Tom Cruise.

Wow, no fuck pineapple on pizza?

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago
[-] TheSaus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

Apparently personal preference is now considered picky

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Depends on how much personal preference you got.

[-] phlegmy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Wow, no fuck basic bitches who only ever get cheese or pepperoni pizza and are too scared to leave their comfort zone and put a little bit of pineapple on their pizza every now and then because for some reason the very idea is completely incomprehensible?

[-] dwindling7373@feddit.it 13 points 1 month ago

That's what she said, for a while.

[-] lost_faith@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

And then 1 final time

[-] FreshLight@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 month ago

That's the weird Scientology guy, right?

[-] ngn@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 month ago
[-] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 48 points 1 month ago

Other people have already mentioned scientology, so I'll add this.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

Why are the years in feet?

It's been said a woman's eyes don't fully open until she turns 33

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

You're thinking of kittens and puppies and it's usually like a couple of weeks.

[-] CluckN@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Does Leonardo get the same hate?

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 31 points 1 month ago

yes frequently

[-] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Leonardo DiCaprio? I don't know much about him. If you mean the young girlfriend/partners, those are transactional relationships. He gets arm candy and they get access to high level producers and directors at parties. I feel like it's much more honest and safe that they aren't married to him.

[-] Gingernate@programming.dev 7 points 1 month ago

Yes he does haha

[-] designatedhacker@lemm.ee 10 points 1 month ago

I went down a rabbit hole on this one. I think the age may be irrelevant, or only correlated with children. At least Kidman and Holmes left him over Scientology. They were trying to avoid having their kids indoctrinated. That worked for Holmes, backfired on Kidman. It might have worked for Holmes because it backfired on Kidman. https://www.mercurynews.com/2024/06/28/after-tom-cruise-once-denied-abandoning-suri-she-seems-to-get-the-last-word/

Tom Cruise and Elon Musk have the same energy.

[-] TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 37 points 1 month ago

At least cruise learned to shut the fuck up and stay in his lane

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 13 points 1 month ago

He learned to live life secure in the knowledge that he can have his enemies killed without destroying democracy.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Did he, tho? Seems like he's continuing to be a strong vector for Scientology in Hollywood to this day.

[-] TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 month ago

Haven't heard a peep about him and scientology since scary movie clowned on him in like 2006

[-] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

Fun fact, Christian Bale based his portrayal of Patrick Bateman in American Psycho on Tom Cruise.

[-] Theonetheycall1845@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

You're right. That IS a fun fact.

[-] Jericho_Kane@lemmy.org 16 points 1 month ago

I'd look like that too if i went from stupit rich to mega stupid rich

[-] kabi@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

thank you for your service @therecoveringproblemchild

[-] dabaldeagul@feddit.nl 10 points 1 month ago

I'm so glad someone is there, covering problem child.

[-] LostWon@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

I'm sure they can use all the help they can get!
