Hilary Swank Is Amelia Earhart

Hilary Swank Is Amelia Earhart

Hilary Swank walks the red carpet of the premiere of Amelia at The Paris Theatre on Tuesday (October 20) in New York City.

The 35-year-old actress stars in Amelia alongside Richard Gere, Ewan McGregor, and Virginia Madsen.

“It’s a responsibility to play someone who really lived,” Hilary told the Vancouver Sun. “And it’s a big responsibility to play someone as iconic as Amelia. I mean, we all have such a great idea of who she was and what she looked like, so there wasn’t a lot of room for fictional license, and we just had to do the best we could to bring honour to that person. Under (director) Mira [Nair]’s guidance and keen eye — she’s an incredible visionary — we just tried to navigate the best we could, and that is hopefully onscreen.”

FYI: Hilary is carrying a clutch by Roger Vivier.

WoW, she is ugly, her face looks like a horse.

she looks gorgeous and ewan looks handsome as ever! can’t wait to see this movie!

actually looks like it “might” be a good movie.

A REAL star. Talent, class & stunning as always. Love her.

I sense another academy award and trip to burger king in Hilary’s future.

When I heard the news that she’s tipped for Oscar, I thought what is Annette Benning doing this year. Of course, she’s also mentioned as potential nominee. Bad luck.
Except for these oscar movies, Hilary’s other movies suck. Why’s that? Iff she’s nominated, she’ll win.

maybe im 2 hard on her but her face is really ugly
i could swear it wasnt that bad when she made that boxing movie
the makeup just makes her look like a drag
she’s on renee zellweger’s level of ugly

I just adore Ewan that’s why I have to watch it. Hillary is good too and she is his friend, because of her he is in Amelia movie. Polish people łaczcie sie ;P :* :*

She has a steve tyler face that only another man hating butch could love.
