Toni Collette

Love her in literally everything I've seen her in. I can't think of a single bad performance.

She IS Toni Collette!

[quote]let's discuss the great Australian actress Toni Colette

On the eve of the Academy Awards, really OP? How dare you pull focus from every other movie star like that?

I loved her in United States of Tara, but I understand why they cut the series when they did.

Same, R1. And because I love watching her, I want to believe the rumors about her being an awful person on set, are either greatly exaggerated, or untrue. But the work stands on its own.

Hasn't her weight gone up and down a lot over the years? In About a Boy, she looked really hefty, but the seemed to slim down.

One of her best and most forgotten performances- and a completely Oscar caliber one- is in a film called Japanese Story.

If you have not seen it, see it.

And do NOT read any spoilers.

She was excellent and the film is a fine one.

R5 Not sure. I know she was happy on Knives Out.

Granted, she was working with Rian Johnson, Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Jamie Lee Curtis, Don Johnson, Michael Shannon, and Christopher Plummer.

From what I have heard/read about, the set was fun and professional. Everyone got along.

I thought her costar from Muriel's Wedding was the difficult one.

Toni Collette played Cordelia in a production of King Lear.

Eric Porter was known for having played Lear.

You’re terrible, Muriel!

(Phrases like that could get you banned around these parts).

I hope she made bank for Mafia Mamma. That one was a slog

R6 I loved About A Boy, and she was the perfect daft hippie in it.

She should have won an Oscar for Hereditary.

She was luminescent in Wild Party.

Sorry but she is box office poison for me. I hate that resting retard face she does.

I loved Muriel's Wedding, despite a few clunky plot twists, and she really carried that movie beautifully.

Loved her in The Staircase.

She was the best one in The Hours.

Hereditary creeped me out almost as much as The Exorcist.

Who?

Love her!

Really? I just wanted to slap her. So I did.

And thanks to you, Mandy, she never came back to Broadway.

I’ve never heard a word about her being difficult.

I value that she’s kept her real face and teeth.

Always outstanding.

Not very pretty.

R15, that’s one of the productions I truly regret missing.

I’ve listened to the cast album a thousand times.

It wasn't the show for me, r28, but I appreciated it and am glad I saw it.

Well, she's an actress not a movie star

I liked her in The Staircase

I liked the owl attacking her.

R32 damn, why?

I just loved her song, "Do That To Me One More Time."

Goodbye Porpoise Spit!!!!!

In the 90s and 00s she was one of the most watchable actors but from the mid 00s the good quality indie roles dried up and it was mostly low quality output.

Thank for starting this thread, Toni.
