JUNE 23 - Frances McDORMAND about her Acting Ethics.

Born on June 23, 1957 in Illinois, Frances McDORMAND is the down to earth character actress who's in for the love of storytelling, leaving the preciousness of stardom to others. As such she never abandoned the stage ("Macbeth", "A Streetcar Named Desire", "Awake and Sing!", "The Country Girl", "Good People", etc... ) which remains the place where she enjoys stretching her acting muscles.
She is married with film director Joel Coen with whom she has been collaborating since 1984.

Her filmography includes "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri", "Fargo", "Nomadland", "Almost Famous", "Blood Simple", "Mississippi Burning", "Moorise Kingdom", etc...
