My Life Without Me director Isabel Coixet has described Sarah Polley as a down to earth heavenly creature. After talking with Sarah for almost an hour about zombies, death and Canada I found that she is right. Unlike many young actresses she has this inner light and charm that just draws you in to discover that even though she is a brilliant actress she is also a great person. Like her character Ann you believe that Sarah could mop the floor and write beautiful poetry at the same time. She's like...

Great stuff. She has her head on straight and she cares about shit that most entertainers take for granted. A lot of people up here in Toronto respect her for what she does and says, and it has less to do with her acting than her character. After-school-special sermon over...

Great Article! Ms. Polley is definately an inspiration and a wonderful actress to boot I am one that grew up watching her on Road To Avonlea and the first movie I caught her in was "go". I've enjoyed her work very much

Me too! When I was little I apparently looked JUST like her (at least, her as Ramona)...do you remember the episode where Ramona is afraid her parents will split up? For some reason I occasionally have dreams relating to that episode. It's one of those weird childhood things that I remember really really well.

Great interview. I adore Sarah, she really is an amazing woman.

I'm not just saying that because I live in the same city, share the same political views and had a mad crush on her when I was a young kid... hell, yeah.. that's probably why I'm saying it.

One of the most beautiful women alive today, inside and out, period.

It's more of a bit role but I definitely liked her in "Last Night". Not to mention "Dawn of the Dead".

For those interested, Sarah Polley's debut feature as a director, Away from Her, has been circulating through film festivals for most of the year (I saw it in Sarasota a few months ago), and is pretty terrific filmmaking. It's set for a September 11th UK dvd release, but there is no announcement on the US dvd yet. I am guessing Lions Gate is going to hold it back so they can give the film some type of limited theater release briefly this fall because the film has a chance for several Oscar nominations, especially for Julie Christie (I'm sure they will ignore Gordon Pinsent, who is as good in the film, if not better).
