Inspiring Cate Blanchett On The Death Of The Likable Australian
CATE Blanchett is in conversation with Mindfood magazine. Pay attention.
Blanchett said she initially tried to shield her boys, Dashiell, 8, Roman, 6, and Ignatius, 2, from her work:
”It’s a very, very difficult job to do with children, and I think in our first year we were trying to quarantine them from what we do so their lives were hermetically sealed and they didn’t feel the impact of our work.”
The three children are now adjusting to the magnitude of mum and dad. As Cate says:
”We’re there to inspire and provoke – that’s our job.”
Adding:
”It’s in the mind of the artist the future is imagined. You say that loudly in this country, and you sound pretentious but it is, in fact, true …”
When that stops sounding pretentious to an Australian, will they please pull up the drawbridge and start chatting among themselves…
