After breaking up with Tom Cruise, winning an Oscar wasn’t enough solace for Nicole Kidman.
“I was having professional success and my personal life was struggling,” she says in Harper’s Bazaar (inset).
Capturing a Best Actress award, as she did for her role in “The Hours,” “can show you the emptiness of your own life, which is kind of what it showed me,” she said.
Now happy with her husband, country singer Keith Urban, she said that she’s content with smaller film roles.
“I’m not carrying the whole film, and it’s not six to seven months’ work like ‘Moulin Rouge’!” the 46-year-old actress said. “I get to come for three weeks and then go home,” she added.
