The magazine has a 10-page feature on the movie, including approx half a page from Nicole (shown below). There are also quotes dotted throughout the main article.

Sitting in her trailer in the middle of nowhere - or more specifically, 60 miles from the outback town of Kununurra, Western Australia - Nicole Kidman nurses blisters on her feet as she steels herself to participate in a cattle drive on the set of Baz Luhrmann's ambitious period epic, Australia. It's certainly a far cry from her days the previous year donning elegant dresses and fine furs as The Golden Compass' refined Mrs Coulter.

"But this is what I love about being an actress," she says. "I go from a fantastic, imaginary setting to this very harsh, very real world." As she pulls on her riding boots, Kidman suggests that she actually quite enjoys being out in the back of beyond. " You can get corrupted by the business side of what we do. I do far better when I'm away from that and I just get to play!"

That's not to say her time as Mrs Coulter was a trial. She enjoyed that the role, despite being in a movie which is, on the surface, a 'children's' film [easy, Pulman fans!], was the first time in a while that let her be overtly sensuous. "I wanted her to have sexuality," she says. "It's a very strong part of the character. She's refined, but she's also described in the book as magnetic."

You'd think that Coulter - who along with her creepy golden-haired monkey daemon is the villain of the piece - also allowed Kidman to explore her darker side, but she's reluctant to see the role in such a way. "I don't judge the character. Nobody is born that way, so I had to fight to show the heart of the woman, because there is a heart. There are motives and reasons you discover as the story goes along."

Mrs Coulter's story doesn't end with The Golden Compass, of course and assuming the movie doesn't die at the box office, she will return for two further instalments - something she's looking forward to. "It's unusual to play a character over the course of three films," she says. "in the first one you only get a glimpse of where she's going, it's only a taste of her. You get an essence of her, but you don't fully understand Mrs Coulter until you play out all three. I really hope we get to do that." JUNE BARKER

Thanks Narrows for the link, Wildwicky for the quote and Kiki for the HQ pic.

I certainly hope NK does get to play Mrs. Coulter in all three films. I've finished reading the trilogy and her character is very complex and compelling. LOL, I'm looking forward to seeing her in the next two movies even though I haven't even seen this yet.

UPDATE:

SCANS ADDED TO FIRST POST IN TOPIC.

Note: you will see 2 sections - the second section is some of the first section where the text was hard to read so I reversed it in the second section. Only download if you find the first section hard to read on the black.

There are 8 pages. And there is more bonus stuff in the magazine so fans in Australia grab a copy for a fabulous Nicole issue.

[wildwicky]

It looks like the text is identical to the UK edition, just different pictures.

[friendlyfox]

Thanks for that fact wildwicky. I did wonder but did not remember it being this long. And now I should link to the UK edition one. Theirs came out in November from memory.


EDITING: Good reason for not remembering it being that long - we did not get the scans Well this makes up for it.

See skanky's topic mentioning the UK edition which has the same cover.
