His role in The Whale, however, earned immense acclaim from the moment it premiered at the Venice Film Festival last fall.

And I’m grateful to Darren Aronofsky for throwing me a creative lifeline and hauling me aboard the good ship The Whale.” He then thanked screenwriter Samuel D.

"There are times in a career when the phone stops ringing for whatever reason," Fraser said. "No, no, that would be insane. It's been a pleasure."

Hollywood parece haberse redimido con Brendan Fraser tras haberle reconocido ayer con el Oscar a mejor actor por su trabajo en La ballena (The whale).

Se conocieron en una barbacoa que organizó Winona Ryder en el verano de 1993 y se casaron cinco años más tarde. Y todo mientras muestra su cariño y emoción en discursos conmovedores con una máxima recurrente: «Charlie –su personaje en La ballena– ha sido un regalo que no vi venir, pero que ha cambiado profundamente mi vida». Su reaparición en una entrevista visiblemente desmejorado, con bastantes kilos de más y la cara envuelta en lágrimas años después tampoco ayudó y los mismos que antes compraban sus entradas de cine para verle en pantalla grande aseguraban ahora que el actor estaba acabado. Su matrimonio también se deterioró y acabó separándose de la que había sido su mujer durante una década, Afron Smith. Se sometió a una laminectomía lumbar —para extirpar parte del hueso de la vértebra—, una operación de rodilla y otra en las cuerdas vocales que lo llevaron a estar siete años «entrando y saliendo en hospitales». Un auténtico reclamo para millones de espectadores que no dudaban en acudir a una sala de cine para ver a un personaje tan gracioso como atractivo.

"When I started in this business 30 years ago, things didn't come easily to me," said Brendan Fraser while accepting the Best Actor Oscar.

And I don't know what the metric is to qualify to play the role. It's been like I've been on a diving expedition on the bottom of the ocean and the air on the line to the surface is on a launch, being watched over by some people in my life. I'm grateful to Darren Aronofsky for throwing me a creative lifeline, and hauling me aboard the good ship, The Whale, which was written by Samuel D. But there was a facility that I didn't appreciate at the time — until it stopped. Goodnight." "So this is what the multi-verse looks like!

Berk called the allegation “a total fabrication”.
