Emma Thompson has been a big presence in the movies for both British an American film fans.



Having been married to Shakespearean actor-director Kenneth Branagh, she inevitably appeared in his film versions of Shakespeare plays such as Henry V (as Catherine of Alois) and Much Ado About Nothing (as Beatrice).

Her other film credits include Howards End, The Remains of the Day, Carrington and Sense and Sensibiility. She played Professor Sybill Trelawney in two Harry Potter movies - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007).

She turned fifty last month.
