Synopsis:
Nicole Kidman is undoubtedly the hottest female star around; her every move makes front-page headlines all over the world. A number of biographies of her former husband, Tom Cruise, have been published, but until now not one on Kidman herself. This biography will trace Nicole Kidman's steady rise from prolific child star through B-list mediocrity to her current status as a critically acclaimed and hugely popular actress. Kidman toiled for years in the Hollywood wilderness, failing auditions for Ghost, Thelma & Louise, Sleepless in Seattle and The Silence of the Lambs; she only landed her breakthrough role in To Die For after Meg Ryan turned it down. Since then, she has worked closely with some of the leading directors and actors of our time, starring with John Malkovich in Jane Campion's Portrait Of A Lady and Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut; she's also made successful forays into action movies (The Peacemaker, alongside George Clooney) and horror (the recent hit film The Others). Having firmly established herself as a successful film actress, Kidman has recently branched out into other areas, demonstrating her great versatility as a performer.
