Cate Blanchett’s triumphs are
extraordinary: two Academy Awards, three Golden Globes, three BAFTAs,
three SAG Awards and four AFI Awards for her film work, and many other
honours for her stage work. She was awarded the Centenary Medal for
Service to Australian Society through Acting, named one of Time Magazine’s
Most Influential People in 2007, and in 2012 was awarded the Chevalier
de l’Ordre des arts et des lettres by the French Minister for Culture. Cate and Anne Summers will talk candidly about
her life, her acting accomplishments and her views on everything from
raising sons as a feminist in today’s world, to her fears about climate
change, to why it is that women are still not treated equally.
