Nicole Kidman: Fighting Depression While Playing Virginia Woolf

Nicole Kidman has revealed that she suffered from depression while playing Virginia Woolf after her divorce from Tom Cruise.

The Australian actress won an Oscar for her portrayal of the author - who committed suicide - in the 2002 film The Hours, which also starred Meryl Streep and Julianne Moore.

Wolf's mental health problems while writing "Mrs. Dalaway" and her death were both shown on screen, with Kidman admitting that it became an "open container" for the author's struggles after she insisted that the suicide scene be filmed without her. assistance of her replacement.

Appearing on BBC Radio 4's "This Cultural Life on New Year", Kidman said: "I do not know if I ever thought about the danger, I think I was so into it." The press was filmed a year after the announcement of her divorce from Cruz, whom she had met in 1989. "I think I was in a place at the time that had moved, with depression, not inside my body," Kidman said.

"So the idea of ​​Virginia going through me was more or less an open container for that to happen. And I think [director Steven Daldr] was very sensitive to me because he knew that. "I was open to understanding that, which I think is perhaps the beauty of life as an actor."

When asked about the last thing that made her cry, Kidman replied: "This is very personal. But yes, I'm crying. "I try to keep it a secret, but everything is deeply sad."
