In Love with Eliza Bennett






Well, it's like i'm in love with this actress since i watched her as Tora Brown in Nanny McPhee. She's Eliza Hope Bennett (March 17, 1992) a British actress with beautiful grey eyes and blond hair. And many people said (and me, too) that she played a perfect Meggie Folchart for Inkheart, She has a powerful voice and lovely accent, and that's fit the character of a Silvertongue. (do you think so?) You can listen to her singing for the closing soundtrack 'My Declaration' (watch the Music Video below!). Not so many credits for her though.. She started her acting carrier as Jemima Potts in stage musical of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang for one and a half year when she was nine. Then she played Princess Arabella in The Prince & Me. She had been in TV films like Supernova and Miss Marple: By the Pricking of My Thumbs. And as Emily Day in The Contractor, you will love her even she's a liar, haha.. As she grown up, she picked many different characters, strong characters I think. Like Meggie (as you know, she was 15 or 16 when filming Inkheart and played 12 year old girl. She has cute face, right?), Susan Oldknow in From Time to Time (she played a blind girl naturally), and Kate Anderson in F (a horror thriller movie). Even in the last one, she's great for a rebellious teenage girl (I won't say the film is great. It's weird! When you watch it, you will like 'Why have to be like that? Is that the only reason? Why they targeted everyone? What are their fault?).
She went to London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts exam when she was in elementary, then to Leighton Park School (she was in the senior school production of "The Crucible" and played as Elizabeth Proctor) and after that to Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts. That proves that she loves acting so much. So don't worry, we can still be able to see her in many movies in the future! ^_^
