Life

Julianne Moore was born Julie Anne Smith at Fort Bragg Military Base in southeast North Carolina . She grew up with a sister and a brother. Her mother, who was from Scotland , was a social worker. Her father Peter Moore Smith (senior) was a helicopter pilot and later a paratrooper in the Vietnam War , where he was wounded. He later rose to colonel and served as a judge in the US Army at 23 locations in the US and abroad. Because of him, the family had to move often and Julianne Moore attended nine different schools. As a teenager she lived in Frankfurt am Main in the 1970s . Here she graduated from American High School in 1979.

As a child, she was often bullied and shunned because of her red hair, freckles, and glasses. In addition, she was not very athletic as a child and adolescent, she only learned to swim at the age of 26 - and at 27 she got her driver's license.

In her first marriage, Moore was married to her fellow actor John Gould Rubin from 1986 to 1995 . In August 2003 she was married to the director Bart Freundlich , whom she met while filming Das Familiengeheimnis (1997). The relationship has a son (* 1997) and a daughter (* 2002).

Bush , collected donations for the organization Planned Parenthood and spoke out publicly for the right to abortion and against Hollywood's youth madness .

This was followed by the science fiction comedy Evolution and the drama Ship Reports , in which she starred alongside Oscar winner Kevin Spacey .

Moore describes himself as a rather fearful and easily influenced person: “People always say to me: 'You are so daring.' But in acting, I'm not afraid of anything. I just find it fascinating to deal with the varieties of human behavior. We always have such ingrained ideas about normality. But there are behaviors that you can't imagine in your craziest dreams, and I want to explore them. That's why I find psychological dramas much more interesting than a story about an expedition to the North Pole. It's enough for someone to cross the street. ”Nevertheless, the actress has switched between Hollywood and independent cinema in the past. “It is difficult to only swim in the independent sector [...] Success in the box office is part of a career. This is what makes radical films [...] possible in the first place, ”said Moore in a 2008 interview with film-dienst . Today she is mainly commissioned to portray melancholy female characters: “Somehow I cut a great figure when the people around me are not doing well. [...] And also that my suffering would almost take on the features of a Greek tragedy. "
