My Take
Fernanda Torres finally got the global recognition I always felt she deserved, and it was overdue. Back in 1986 she shared the Best Actress prize at Cannes, and decades later her Golden Globe win brought her to a whole new audience. She comes from Brazilian acting royalty, yet she has carved her own identity across comedy and heavy drama, and she writes too. What I treasure is her range; she can be devastating and then disarmingly funny within the same career, sometimes the same film. Her recent awards run felt like the world catching up to what Brazilian audiences cherished for years.
