Margot Robbie on "Babylon"

so I assume you are Italian on my father's side. I am also Dutch, German, English. I'm a stray dog ​​and you're a stray dog, yes it's Sunday morning on CBS and here's Jane Pauley again, she still seems like a new face, but an actress. and producer Margot Robbie has more than two dozen films under her belt along with two Oscar nominations Tracy Smith has a Sunday profile and with the rest of the tourists here we pass through the Paramount gate at the movie Biz the Paramount lot in Los Angels has always been sacred ground, a crossroads for stars of all sizes and it still is.

How does it feel to walk here now? I love it, I just have to do it. I remember when I took the photo there. I remember I did all my dance lessons there. It was so surreal being on the Paramount lot, two-time Oscar nominee Margot Robbie says it's a place she never gets tired of, it's so exciting, there's no place more magical, no place more fun than the set of a movie and she should know what you think about us coming to find my close... So far, their new movie Babylon from our parent company, Paramount, is a movie made the way they used to make them and maybe never will again.

Director Damien Chazelle takes us on a more than three-hour deep dive into the chaotic underbelly of 1920s Hollywood, an epic story. told in beautiful and sometimes creepy detail with Robbie's character going off the rails in a place where the parties never seem to end it seems like it's all about taking risks yes I like taking risks OIT I can say I'm a thrill seeker it doesn't scare me, usually I don't, the girl seems nice, she is, she has no idea what's next and in Babylon there was a lot to fear, a lot of big tears, pig, you got it.

Young actress Nelly LaRoy's character is a hungry outsider who turns out to be talented beyond anyone's expectations, with powers like the ability to cry her heart out on command, thank you, cut, hello, I'm Nelly LaRoy, so Let's go again, okay, let's talk about this. Crying IQ. Something you can actually do. Yeah. I did 300-something on a soap opera, so I had plenty of practice. Cry as a sign that I don't know myself. I think it's like a muscle. I could tell a director. Know? I want it in my left eye or my right eye and tell me the word you want me to say and what's going on in your head, where it comes from.

I don't know, honestly, it sounds so stupid and derivative, but just Think about something sad, but in his life he says there really isn't much to be sad about. Margot Robbie was raised by a single mother in Queensland, Australia, through sheer persistence she came to Pay Dirt at age 17 with a role on the popular Australian soap opera Neighbors cue the tears, he promised me who would be home for us to be with tonight, she fit right into the show, almost with a very strong Australian accent, they were too Australian for the neighbors, two Australians for the neighbors, they had a dialect coach come in to make me sound less.

Australian for the most Australian TV show What is it? You can do it? What is an Australian accent? It's very similar, ah, how are you doing? It's just not pleasant to the ear and they tried to round it out. They're like you're so nasal. I need to just round that up, so ask yourselves why Pan Am, the best airline in the world, would promote someone so young, but her American accent was good enough to get her a series here, Pan Am, in 2011. It only lasted one season. , so he started sending out As I put out audition tapes, including a Hail Mary pass to a casting agent for a new Martin Scorsese movie, The Wolf of Wall Street, no part of me thought that Martin Scorsese would see my tape and be He was as surprised as anyone when he bit me, but when they first told you, oh yeah, Marty wants to see you, your reaction was that he was so confused that, to be honest, he didn't know who Marty was.

I was like they said Marty, Marty wants to see you and I was like who. It's Marty Martin Scorsese and I was like, how does he know who I am? It's like I watched your tape and I was like, Martin Scorsese saw my audition date, no, yeah, and he wants you to come in and read with Leo and I was like, Leo  like in Leonardo DiCaprio oh my god, I'm already a nickname with everything. the world um yeah, it was crazy I'm going to be a friend, yeah, you want to be my friend We're not going to be friends, her performance opened a lot of eyes   and In many doors since then she has played everything from the Queen of England, a smart young woman and confident, to a real doll in the next Barbie movie, to a complete psychopath, seriously, what the hell is wrong with you bad guys, what happened to her from breaking glass windows in 2014. she started her own production company to make female-centric films like this for the movie I Tonya Robbie I really learned to skate like an Olympic figure skater and fight like Tonya Harding I got over it today we also judge by the presentation her turn it's Tonya got her the first of two Oscar nominations, but It also put her on the map as a producer, drawing comparisons to Katharine Hepburn, who used her own business sense to help bring The Philadelphia Story to the screen.

I'm such an ungodly mass of a girl, what do you think? From that comparison I mean there couldn't be high praise for me because I adore Katharine Hepburn, um, but yeah, I think I definitely have that type. I've always been a bit like that, yes, I've had a business savvy brain and Robbie's. Her success has allowed her to do things even more important to her than her movies. When you received your first paycheck, you kept a written record of all the money your mom had lent you. How did you research? Yes, yes, I have that. piece of paper I still kept it um yeah, everything I owed my mom I had it written down she would take out money like the mortgage on the house, she would lend me money, so I always knew I had to pay it back and then one day, I earned enough money.

I just paid off the entire mortgage in full. I thought: Mom, don't even worry about that mortgage anymore. It doesn't even exist anymore. You paid for his house. Yes, honestly, anyone in my position would do that for your Mom, of course you would. Margot, of course, has made her mother proud in other ways. This year, the British Film Academy celebrated her life in film, never mind that she is only 32 years old. Does it feel a little strange to have that at such a young age? Yeah. At first I thought I don't think I should get this, like I'm too young to get something with the word life in it, um, but then I thought, "I'll take it, thank you, night, night, honey, no." Don't worry because the car is not mine and with her latest role it is clear that she has earned her own place in Hollywood history.

I mean, it's iconic, all these studio lots are especially this one. I know I'm working hard and blah blah. I am also the luckiest person, luckiest, yes, in the world. You know, every time I did something I thought, oh, now it's at the top, it's never going to get better than this, and then somehow it just keeps getting better and better. I am very, very grateful. and luck
