https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k Choose one or two (1-2) characters from A Doll's House and then choose actors or celebrities (living or dead) to play your chosen characters. Post a photo/s of your chosen actor/s here. Then, explain why (3-4 sentences--and edit your work!) this person would make a good Nora, Torvald, Christine, Krogstad, or Rank. What is it about this person--character traits, look, performances in previous roles, personal life--that would allow them to play the role you've chosen for them? en-us 2022-01-23 21:05:56 UTC 2023-04-06 01:39:15 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f43f.png https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009465190 Jennifer would make a great Nora because she fits all of the age and physical characteristics. In addition, she has a playful, yet sometimes serious personality that is portrayed in many of her films. She is cast in many blockbuster movies, demonstrating her ability to play a wide range of different characters.

Her brunette hair and sharp features closely resemble Christine. Also, she has a strong personality and unrelenting will which is very similar to Christine. Christine has been searching for a job and has been navigating life which is a bit similar to Jen Law in the Hunger Games.

Her face has the appearance of innocence which is a valuable feature in Nora's ability to sway her husband with her charm. Although she is small and seemingly immature, as seen in her role in Mamma Mia, she has the ability to grasp the attention of others with her outgoing personality.

In the past, she has played naive and childish characters that believe they have taken on a lot of heavy things in life but they handle those things in ways that show the audience they really don't know what they're doing. She is also very small in stature and plays characters that have a very young outlook on love and the hope of that love lasting. They would also do anything in their power to make that love last.

In the play, Nora has a massive character development and is proven to be stronger than what the audience may think. I think Streep could demonstrate that very well. Her physical features also match what I imagine as Nora's.

Christine has this drive to want to work and make money, and I think Florence Pugh could easily portray Christine's character in a contemporary way. 

Julia Kinsel]]> 2022-01-24 18:15:17 UTC https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009479555 https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009479870 I think that Rosamund Pike would be a great Nora. She kind of looks similar to the person that played Nora in the version of the play we saw. She has played dramatic roles in movies like Gone Girl and I Care Lot which would help. Her height and hair color would be a foil to the casting for Christine. 
Sofia Parker]]> 2022-01-24 18:15:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009479870 https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009480921 I would cast Keira Knightley as Christine. I have no big reason. Maybe, she has played way too many 18-19th century movies, and when I think 18-19th century things I think of her.

She was always the level headed one that took control of the situation. In her old show Pretty Little Liars she was a quite and hard working person that took on a lot of responsibility when she faced trouble.

In both homes, Torvald's and the Gilmore's, they are the source of happiness or solace. Also, they are both highly educated and well-spoken. Both of them have very good, and similar, outlooks on life once their health issues arrise.

Physically she very closely resembles Nora with her blonde hair and soft features. Also, Reese Witherspoon has a very wide acting range, so I believe she would be able to demonstrate Nora's character development perfectly. She in the past has been cast for roles such as legally blonde where her character finds inner strength, due to this I believe she would be a great cast for Nora.

He has the right look for it. He is older but handsome to the point where no one really cares about his age. He seems like the kind of man who would act the way Torvald acts towards Nora and the rest of the cast. He also seems like he can be strict but also sexist at the same time. What a wonderful qualification. He has amazing acting capabilities and probably can act whatever it is you want him to act.

She's young but not too young as to where it would be weird. She has a very matronly vibe. Because of her innocent and more childlike vibe I think she could pull of the surprise of when she forged the signature better than others.

I thought of her because her role on Grey's Anatomy is a person who starts out being naive and becomes very strong throughout the show. 
Kelly McKiernan ]]> 2022-01-24 18:19:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009488474 https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009490241 This one I'm just adding for fun. If you've watched the show it just makes sense. They are both a little helpless, you feel a little bad for them, but you cringe every time they try to do anything to help their situation.

- Nora ]]> 2022-01-24 18:20:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009490708 madisondon22 https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009490898 I believe that Candice King suits the role of Nora. When she played Caroline in TVD, her character in the first season reminds me of how Nora was portrayed as naive and immature at the beginning of the first act. However, like Nora, Candice's character develops over the eight seasons, becoming stronger and not as fragile.
Madison Don]]> 2022-01-24 18:20:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009490898 https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/g6tegnba0gjwcm8k/wish/2009492787 I would cast Reese Witherspoon as Nora because of their similarities both physically and literally. First, Reese and Nora both have the same dirty blonde hair and are both tiny and petite. Similarly, one of Reese's most popular films, Legally Blonde, was about a young girl who is obsessed with money (just like Nora) and who is viewed as dumb because of her looks (Torvald treating like she is dumb by the degrading names he calls her). I think that Reese's role in Legally Blonde has prepared her to play Nora because her role as Elle is very similar to Nora's character.

Torvald's character, a banker, cares a lot for appearance, and Armie is always portrayed as the clean-cut male in his films. I wouldn't say he is an amazing actor, but his acting personality seems to align with that of Torvald.

Like a child she used everyone and didn't care for the repercussion. Even though she had her moments of acting like an adult for the most part she was very selfish like a child.

I feel that she could play Nora with an underlying strength that is shown more vividly throughout the written play than what we see in the one we watched. I feel that this is the most important character trait of Nora. I also feel that through little women, we can see the more "delicate" side of Nora that Torvald sees.
