With two weeks to go before the delivery of the Hollywood Oscars, the film Steve Jobs has returned to collect another award of the three for which it was nominated. This time Kate Winslet has won again in the category as best supporting actress BAFTA from the English Film Academy in her PR role as Apple Johanna Hoffman, at the British Industry Awards that were handed out last night.
The film Steve Jobs was also nominated in the category of best adapted screenplay with Aaron Sorkin and the category of best actor for Michael Fassbender, who he lost again to Leonardo DiCaprio for the film El renacido (The revenant) directed by the Mexican Iñárritu, while Aaron Sorkin was defeated by the scriptwriters of The big short (The big short).
Kate Winslet praised film director Danny Boyle, Michael Fassbender and Johanna Hoffman role he played in the movie:
I am very overwhelmed. Danny Boyle was wonderful working with you. Thank you for casting me for the role when we barely knew each other. Michael Fassbender you guided us all to this project. I don't know how you did it but he's a brilliant actor. And I also want to mention a person who prefers to remain anonymous, Johanna Hoffman, who was a devoted follower and faithful friend of Steve Jobs.
Winslet assured that Hoffman helped prepare the role by telling him fabulous stories during his time working with Steve Jobs.. This is not the first award Winslet has won with this movie. A few weeks ago she also won the Golden Globe in the same category and is also nominated as a supporting actress for the Hollywood Oscars that are delivered in two weeks, on February 28.
