Points for ambition as Kate Winsletjoined the comeback effort of Australian director Jocelyn “Proof” Moorhouse, who had not released a film since the mid-90s. Winslet plays a star dressmaker on a gruesome revenge trip back to the outback town where she grew up. Tonally, The Dressmaker is all over the place, but Winslet is game.
Winslet plays an Epidemic Intelligence Service agent – of all the most horribly relevant things – in Steven Soderbergh’s pandemic thriller that everyone is now digging out of the DVD crate. Winslet puts up a decent show in a big-name ensemble cast, but her role is necessarily small.
Richard Eyre’s biopic of Iris Murdoch was dominated by the heartrending rapport between Judi Dench and Jim Broadbent as the author and her husband as dementia took over their relationship. Winslet was cast as Dench’s younger counterpart, a free-spirited student bicycling around Oxford – a role she could do in her sleep.
A solid wartime thriller – now somewhat overshadowed by The Imitation Game – adapted from Robert Harris’s novel about the activities of the Bletchley Park codebreakers. Winslet, in intellectual Coke-bottle specs, helps lovelorn Dougray Scott track down missing glamourpuss Saffron Burrows; Winslet was starting to grow out of this sort of thing, but ...
One from the early, pre-Titanic days. As was once her wont, Winslet gives it both barrels as Ophelia in Kenneth Branagh’s impressively mounted production: she is a screaming fury.
Winslet in one of her less glamorous parts: her washerwoman Madeleine, in the notorious Charenton hospital, catches the eye of the Marquis de Sade, confined there in his later years. It all looks a bit queasy now, and Winslet – strong as ever – has to contend with a slightly boring role.
Playing opposite Christopher Eccleston, Winslet lights up Michael Winterbottom’s sturdy Thomas Hardy adaptation as the flighty Sue Bridehead. Though perhaps a little callow compared to what came later, Winslet looks very good here, switching from mood to mood as the story demands.
With a severely altered patina as a result of Aardman’s decision to ditch stop-motion for full CGI, this is, if we are being honest, the animation outfit’s least distinguished full-length film. It’s also their starriest, with Winslet joining Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen and Jean Reno for a middleweight sewer-bound yarn. Decent, without being spectacu...
Once she attained industry clout, Winslet always sought out major directorial names, so her connection with Jane Campion was something of a no-brainer. This once seemed a bit of an oddity in the Campion canon, an idiosyncratic change of pace after the high Hollywood literariness of Portrait of a Lady, with Winslet playing a guru-follower subjected ...
Winslet is not the type to spread herself too thinly, so the fashionable flood of event TV doesn’t figure much on her CV. This, though, must have been a can’t-refuse: the role made famous by Joan Crawford, with the impeccably stylish Todd “Far From Heaven” Haynes at the controls. Winslet won some of her best reviews for yet another essay in the def...

Kate Winslet. Actress: Titanic. Ask Kate Winslet what she likes about any of her characters, and the word "ballsy" is bound to pop up at least once. The British actress has made a point of eschewing straightforward pretty-girl parts in favor of more devilish damsels; as a result, she's built an eclectic resume that runs the gamut from Shakespearean tragedy to modern-day mysticism and erotica.
