Pure Talent-Zooey Deschanel

Zooey Deschanel

This week I would like to dedicate the  quirky Zooey Deschanel  in the Pure Talent section who just got her  first Golden Globe nomination one week ago.She is a triple threat.She sings,she acts in film and has  TV shows.She has her own style whether in acting and fashion which makes her so different than the normal Hollywood actress.

I first saw Zooey playing a very small role in the film Failure To Launch.She plays the friend of the main character who is annoyed by the sound made by the  mockingbird and decides to buy a gun to kill it.It was a very small role but together with her chemistry with Justin Bartha and comedic timing ,she was the best thing in the film.

She then played the teacher in the film Bridge to Terrabithia whom Josh Hutcherson crushes for and eventually decide to ignore his friend and eventually accidentally causing her friend to drown.Again it was a small role and she gave a descent performance.

Then came the film 500 Days Of Summer,where she played the lead role opposite the charming Joseph Gordon Levitt.She excels playing Summer, a role  of a girl who doesn't believe in love and doesn't want to be anyone girlfriend.Again her chemistry with Joseph Gordon Levitt was superb and although playing the heart breaker,it is hard to hate her.She  is too likable.

She gained more exposure playing the awkward Jessie in the sitcom New Girl which earn her a Golden Globe nod.Although some episode does look silly than funny,she manages to give a funny performance every episode.


I'm looking forward to see her film where she would be portraying Janis Joplin.She definitely has voice almost similar to Joplin and we knew she is equally different and unique as Joplin.
