She's the actress-muse-thinker-chameleon-alien with who can spin gold out of the smallest indie film or biggest Hollywood production, as when she won an Oscar for her role as a ruthless lawyer in Michael Clayton.
Tilda Swinton remains the strange and strangely alluring Scotswoman with a degree in poli-sci and thespian roots that go back to the 80s, when she worked with the late, great cult-film legend Derek Jarman. She's always up for the odd project, which these days are as likely to involve fashion as film; in 2003, for example, she opened a Viktor & Rolf show in which every model thereafter had been made-up in her pale-cheeked, red-haired image.
Now a severe-cut blonde with another transfixing portrayal of self-awakening in the upcoming Italian drama I Am Love (or Lo Sono l'Amore, written/directed by Luca Guadagnino, in theaters June 2010)
