Acting is not about dressing up. Acting is about stripping bare. The whole essence of learning lines is to forget them so you can make them sound like you thought of them that instant.
Glenda Jackson
Although Glenda Jackson was absent from screen and stage for nearly a quarter of a century, when she devoted herself to her political career, she managed to appear in a wide variety of roles on either side of her time as an elected MP to Parliament.
Almost uniquely amongst actors of her generation, she managed to straddle the line between leading actress and character actor, being both a bankable star and a fascinatingly unpredictable performer who would enliven any film or production that she was in. It is hard to think that she ever gave a bad performance.
She deservedly won two Oscars during her illustrious career on both stage and screen. The second Oscar that she won, for the 1973 romantic comedy-drama A Touch of Class, was an appropriate acknowledgement of a decorous and classy performance in a decorous and classy film, and one still fondly remembered now. However, the picture that she first received an Academy Award for, Ken Russell’s inimitable 1969 DH Lawrence adaptation Women in Love, was considerably less restrained.
When she was cast, she was by no means a known international quantity. She had achieved success on stage with the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) since the early Sixties - most notably as Ophelia, opposite David Warner’s Hamlet, in Peter Hall’s legendary 1965 production - and had reprised her stage role as Charlotte Corday, the assassin of Jean-Paul Marat, in Peter Brook’s film of Peter Weiss’s play Marat/Sade, but she had never starred in a major picture.
Until Margaret Thatcher came to power in 1979, Jackson had not regarded herself as a political actor, in the way Jane Fonda or Redgrave did. She had long been a Labour party member, and gave time and energy to single-issue campaigns, such as human rights, Oxfam and abortion.
She considered standing for parliament and won despite Labour overall losing to John Major in 1992. In 1997, re-elected in the Tony Blair landslide, she served briefly as a junior transport minister, but she became an increasingly critical voice on her own side, especially over the Iraq war. She was rarely heard in the Commons, but always remained a highly popular constituency MP.
She left politics and made a surprise return to acting in 2015, making waves in a BBC Radio 4 series based on the novels of Emile Zola. It was when she played King Lear on stage at the Old Vic - a role that she later reprised on Broadway in 2019 - that the ferocity and power of her performance was a reminder to many who had been too young to see her in her earlier stage roles that she was a magnificent and multi-faceted performer.
Jackson continued to appear in television and film until the end of her life. However, her last definitive role came a few years ago, in which she starred as Maud Horsham, an elderly woman suffering from dementia who attempts to solve a mystery, even as she ebbs away. She won virtually every award going for the part, including another Emmy and a Bafta,
RIP Glenda Jackson RIP 1936-2023

Glenda Jackson
Glenda Jackson è l’attrice britannica che ha vinto due volte l’Oscar come protagonista, per il suo ruolo in Donne in amore nel 1971 e Un tocco di classe, nel 1974.
Nella sua carriera è stata anche insignita del Tony Award alla miglior attrice protagonista in un’opera teatrale, di due Premi Emmy, due Premi BAFTA e un Golden Globe.
Nata a Birkenhead, vicino a Liverpool, il 9 maggio 1936, in una famiglia della working class, dopo aver iniziato a studiare danza da ragazzina, aveva capito presto che la sua vocazione era la recitazione.
Diplomata alla Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, poco più che ventenne aveva debuttato in teatro nel 1957. Per i successivi sei anni si è alternata sul palco come attrice e fuori come responsabile di scena nei teatri di tutta l’Inghilterra.
Dopo il debutto cinematografico nel film The Extra Day del 1956, è stata nella Royal Shakespeare Company diretta da Peter Brook in molti lavori, incluso il Marat/Sade di Peter Weiss, in cui aveva il ruolo di Charlotte Corday, bissato anche nella versione cinematografica del 1967.
Ha avuto una parte in This Sporting Life di Lindsay Anderson, uno dei film manifesto del Free Cinema, ma è diventata una star internazionale, grazie anche all’incontro con Ken Russell, che l’aveva scelta come protagonista di Donne in amore del 1969, interpretazione che le è valsa il suo primo Oscar.
Con Russell ha anche girato L’altra faccia dell’amore ed è apparsa in un cameo in The Boy Friend.
Negli anni Settanta è stata una delle attrici più richieste, è stata protagonista in Domenica maledetta domenica di John Schlesinger, film fondamentale del cinema britannico di quegli anni, in Maria Stuarda Regina di Scozia ha interpretato Elisabetta I, ha recitato in opere di rottura come la trasposizione cinematografica de Le serve di Jean Genet in coppia con Susannah York, è stata la protagonista di Una romantica donna inglese, accanto a Helmut Berger e Michael Caine.
Il regista statunitense Melvin Frank l’ha voluta come protagonista di Un tocco di classe del 1973, che le è valso il suo secondo Oscar alla migliore attrice protagonista. Glenda Jackson non si è presentata a nessuna delle due cerimonie di premiazione, facendosi sostituire dall’attrice Juliet Mills nel 1971 e dal regista Melvin Frank nel 1974.
Il suo ultimo film prima di un lungo ritiro, The Secret Life of Arnold Bax, è del 1992.
L’impegno politico che ha accompagnato ogni sua scelta è culminato nel 1992 con la sua elezione a deputata laburista alla Camera dei Comuni, carica che ha coperto fino al 2015, anni durante i quali è stata anche sottosegretaria ai trasporti.
Per la sua strenua opposizione all’intervento in Iraq, era stata posta ai margini del partito laburista all’epoca al governo con Tony Blair, leader nei confronti del quale è stata sempre avversa. Sono rimaste memorabili anche le sue parole alla morte di Margaret Thatcher, la cui ideologia aveva definito fatta di “avidità, egoismo, nessuna cura per i più deboli, gomiti taglienti e ginocchia affilate“.
Nell’ottobre del 2016 è tornata a recitare, dopo venticinque anni di assenza, interpretando Lear in una produzione di Re Lear in scena per due mesi all’Old Vic di Londra. Un’interpretazione, che le era valsa una candidatura al Laurence Olivier Award alla miglior attrice nel 2017.
Nel 2018 è tornata a calcare le scene di New York dopo 30 anni di assenza per interpretare “A” nella prima produzione di Broadway del dramma di Edward Albee Tre donne alte; performance che le ha fatto vincere il Tony Award alla miglior attrice protagonista in un’opera teatrale.
Nel 2019 ha interpretato di nuovo Re Lear a Broadway per la regia di Sam Gold ed è tornata a recitare in televisione nel film Elizabeth Is Missing grazie al quale ha vinto il British Academy Television Award per la miglior attrice nel 2020.
L’ultimo film in cui ha recitato è stato The Great Escaper del 2022, accanto a Michael Caine, diretto da Oliver Parker, il racconto della toccante storia vera di un veterano del D-Day.
È morta a Londra il 15 giugno 2023, aveva 87 anni.

Glenda Jackson, the two-time Oscar winner who renounced a successful film and stage career in her 50s to become a member of the British Parliament, then returned to the stage at 80 as the title character in “King Lear,” died on Thursday at her home in Blackheath, London. She was 87.
Her death was confirmed by Lionel Larner, her longtime agent, who said she died after a brief illness.
On both stage and screen, Ms. Jackson demonstrated that passion, pain, humor, anger, affection and much else were within her range. “I like to take risks,” she told The New York Times in 1971, “and I want those risks to be larger than the confines of a structure that’s simply meant to entertain.”
By then she had won both acclaim and notoriety for performances in which she had bared herself, physically as well as emotionally, notably as a ferocious Charlotte Corday in Peter Brook’s production of Peter Weiss’s “Marat/Sade” and as Tchaikovsky’s tormented wife in Ken Russell’s film “The Music Lovers.”
And she had won her first best-actress Oscar, for playing the wayward Gudrun Brangwen in Mr. Russell’s “Women in Love” (1969). Her second was for her portrayal of the cool divorcée Vickie Allessio in “A Touch of Class” (1973).
Ms. Jackson pivoted to politics in 1992, and was elected as the member of Parliament representing the London constituency of Hampstead and Highgate for the Labour Party. After the party took control of government in 1997, she became a junior minister of transport, only to resign the post two years later before a failed attempt to become mayor of London.
She did not run for re-election in 2015, declaring herself too old, and soon returned to acting.
Another legend who I was just thinking of the other day and wondering if she was working on anything new. RIP.
