The role of the students of Killer Matilda in the film "Leon" became for the 12-year-old Natalie Portman, the first large breakthrough in the film. As it turned out recently, this success has a reverse side. Portman told about her in the new release of the Podcaster of Dex Shepard Armchair Expert.
The actress admitted that the role in Leone had sexualized her children's image and the young Natalie began to perceive as lolita.
"It seems to me that it has lost my own sexuality, because in the end I began to be afraid. I felt that the only way to stay safe was to build an image conservative, serious. "I am smart, you must respect me, do not look at me so." At this age, you want to know the new, open peace, but you feel some kind of danger, for example, when there are mature men around you who look at you, and you think: "No, no, no, no," Portman shared.
The presenter noted that Natali had the opposite experience in contrast, for example, from young Disney actors, on which the label of purity and innocence hang.
"Yes, it is very strange, I also took these listening [apparently, in Disney films], but never received roles. It happened that it was more often given by the roles of dark, sexy young girls, "laughing, noted Natalie.
Despite the effect of its cinema, Portman has a big family and happy in marriage. Since 2008, she has been married to choreographer Benjamin Millpe and raises two children with him: nine-year-old alpha and three-year-old Amalia.
