“I don’t get life to win or lose,” says Fernanda Torres about Oscar

FERNANDA TORRES 59, keeps your feet on the ground in the face of the nomination for the best actress at Oscar 2025 for the movie “I’m still here “From director Walter Salles. Just before the official announcement of the nominees, this Thursday (23), the actress commented, in an interview with BBC’s Radio Weekend program, that avoids creating expectations regarding awards.

“I hate expectations. I am a pessimist by nature. And whatever comes, I’ll be happy. You know, I’m more than happy with my heavy Golden Globe in my suitcase, ”he joked, referring to the prize he received earlier this month for the same role.

Despite the enthusiasm of the fans the star said it does not measure success through statuettes. “But I do not measure life in terms of winning or losing,” he said.

In addition to Fernanda’s nomination, “I’m still here” made history by being nominated in the categories of best film and best international film.

The nomination for the largest American film award resumes the expectation that Brazil lived in 1999, when Fernanda Montenegro’s mother, 95, was nominated for Oscar for best actress for her performance in the movie “Central do Brasil”, also by Walter Salles.

At the time, the veteran did not win the statuette, which ended in the hands of Gwyneth Paltrow for her role in “Shakespeare in love.”

“I’m still here” is based on Marcelo Rubens Paiva’s book of the same name, published in 2015. The film portrays the story of Eunice Paiva, mother of the writer, who fought for many years for justice to her husband, former deputy Rubens Paiva , which was tortured and killed by the Brazilian Military Dictatorship, and later given missing by the regime.
