Tuesday activity #2



The article is an interwiew to the actress Penelope Wilton, one of the protagonist of "Downton Abbey", a serie set in Ingleterra life in the early twentieth century. Downton is a large estate, a very wealthy family, who live a very glamorous life full of servants. Penelope is one of the voices "dissidents" within that environment conservative, since it has a great interest in the work and helping those in need, in an era where high class people simply did not work.

In the interview said what first that led to act, what is his favorite "medium" (theater and screen), what has meaning for her the worldwide success he has had "Downton Abbey", which is what had to sacrifice for his career. Also note that the biggest myth about being an actor is that it is a glamorous profession and that the worst that the critics have said about it is "you are not as good as you think you are".
Finally, he says that he does not regret anything he has done in his career. She is a great actress.

My CV


My family has lived in many cities in Chile, so I went to several schools. I started in Arica, in kindergarten , then we went to Temuco , where the school was bad, very bad, and then to another school in Rengo (municipal, bad too, but not so much) and then I went where I finished high school, one subsidized private. It was a good school , but not so much either. Not had a great time there, but I was always a good student and I did very well in the PSU . No enjoyed my classmates and my teachers , but I enjoyed learning and reading a lot. I never did sports or anything extra in the college .
Then I went to university and I had too good. I made many friends, it was very difficult to study, but I was in Valparaiso and the city also was wonderful. Finally, what I did not enjoy was the career I chose, and ended in Santiago studying journalism .

I have worked in many things. I started in college being temporera, at age 15. Several summers I did that, I was also a waitress, a cashier at a music store , I did databases, worked as a community manager ... the last two jobs I've had have been the best, because they have been a journalist: in the summer in "entertainment" at the La Segunda newspaper and now at the Universidad Mayor.


The best job I've had is a journalist for the newspaper "La Segunda", I think there really understand what being a journalist and the responsibility to make people informs, entertains and opine om what one writes.


The worst, I think temporera. is a very boring, the deal is not very good, the pay is bad. There is lived reality of the people who have the least in this country, which is full of inequalities. It's a bit sad, but I also learned a lot about how hard life is for some chileans.
