  • CP UNITED STATES of TARA 4P.Indd
    United States of Tara, le nouveau carton de la chaîne Showtime, la petite sœur de HBO aux Etats-Unis, débarque en France en DVD avec cette première saison aux multiples facettes. Toni Collette, Golden Globes de la meilleure actrice dans une comédie en 2007 pour le désormais culte Little Miss Sunshine, interprète ici la plus « fêlée » des héroïnes du petit écran, Tara Gregson, épouse et mère modèle aux alter ego pour le moins décapants. « Un pur plaisir » « United States of Tara est drôle, poignant, déjanté et sain » Washington Post Chicago Tribune QUI EST TARA GREGSON ? Tara Gregson, mariée, deux enfants, schizophrène … Tara souffre de troubles de l’identité qui la partagent en huit personnalités différentes ! Bien entendu, ses aventures n’auraient rien d’extraordinaires sans l’originalité de ces « colocataires » corporels. Ainsi, il n’est pas rare chez les Gregson de croiser T., adolescente de 16 ans rebelle et vulgaire, Buck, vétéran du Vietnam pervers et alcoolique, ou encore Alice, la ménagère parfaite des années 50, le tout sous les traits de la seule Toni Collette. Mais Tara a décidé de vivre avec et d’abandonner le lourd traitement qui lui était prescrit. Désormais, chacune de ces personnalités se manifeste lorsque l’émotion qui lui est associée se fait trop pesante pour Tara, luttant toujours et encore pour la préservation de son environnement familial. TONI COLLETTE : UNE ACTRICE, HUIT PERSONNAGES… Révélée en 1992 dans Spotswood, avec Anthony Hopkins et Russell Crowe, elle se fait connaître du grand public en 1994 grâce à son rôle dans le fi lm Muriel de Paul John Hogan.

Background of the Study Everyone needs love, not only man but also woman and both of them have motivated to fulfill it. Many people think it is possible to grow up and live their life without knowing love. They can speculate whether or not love is the ultimate purpose of life. However it is believed that love is the only one worth fighting for. Some people regard that love is something that makes happy. It is true if someone finds a good partner in her life. Sometimes, people feel sad because of love. Love ruins everything. Someone feels like that if he feels broken heart because of love itself. Love can bring people ecstasy or leave their sore and sick. Even if people are afraid to bear all in the search for love, the rewards outweigh the injuries. It relations with the story of this movie. In this movie, there are many opinions about the meaning of love such as love is sex, love is something treasure and so on, but all of them need love and belongingness from the other person. Sex and the City is comedy romantic drama. It is an American Cable Television Series.
