KATE WINSLET (Rose DeWitt Bukater) first
received international acclaim for her performance in Peter
Jackson's "Heavenly Creatures," in which she starred as
a teenage girl whose intense relationship with an equally
imaginative school friend leads to murder. Her promise was
confirmed with her performance as the impetuous Marianne in Ang
Lee's "Sense and Sensibility," opposite Emma Thompson,
for which she won a SAG and BAFTA award for Best Supporting
Actress and an Academy Award� nomination, all in 1996. Most
recently she received universal praise for her portrayal of the
heart-rending and determined Sue Bridehead in Michael
Winterbottom's "Jude" and as the tortured Ophelia in
Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of "Hamlet." Winslet will
next star in the independent feature film "Hideous
Kinky," filming on location in Morocco this fall.
