Game of Thrones: Brienne Tarte
The actress, performing the role of a woman in armor, coped with her task impeccably and became famous throughout the world. But how much do we know about her from the series and what new can be learned from the book “Song of Ice and Fire”?
The character is also known as Brienne Beauty or Tartan Maiden. In the story, she is the only daughter and heiress of Selvin Tarte. A girl who was not distinguished by beauty, but of a large physique and a hefty strength, she dreamed of becoming a knight from childhood. And at a time when men treat her with some contempt and perplexity, she feels fine in armor.
And here is what we can learn about her appearance. According to the book, Lady Brienne Tart (actress K. Gwendolyn) had a masculine body structure and did not differ in face beauty. Moreover, his features were rough, his mouth was too wide, crooked teeth and his nose was repeatedly broken. Brienne's hair was straw-colored, and her skin was completely covered with freckles, and only her large blue eyes looked at the world in a completely childish way.
The fate of the character in the book and in the series has significant differences. However, this is not surprising, because the creators of the epic tape warn that it is removed based on the novel, which is only taken as a basis. Every season we are presented with something new and completely unexpected.
Brienne Tart: actress Christie Gwendolyn
The British actress was born in the south of England on October 28, 1978 in a small village. Growth and athletic build influenced the girl’s choice of a sports future, and she was actively involved in rhythmic gymnastics, but subsequently suffered a spinal injury and was forced to leave the sport. Then Gwendoline firmly decided to become an actress. She studied at the London Drama Theater and began work in a new role. Her first role was the Queen in the play "Cymbelin."
However, worldwide fame brought her Brienne Tarte. The actress instantly became recognizable, by the way, largely due to her growth and her extraordinary appearance.
Gwendolyn about his height
Christie is not shy about her impressive growth. In an interview, she talks about being used to being high. Marks in 191 centimeter, namely, such is her growth, she reached by the age of 14. The actress admits that women on her street often approach her, whose height is above the average (within 178 cm), and they say that they are pleased to meet the girl taller.
Many, not knowing the true growth of K. Gwendolyn, admitted the idea that certain camera techniques help her to look impressive in the frame. However, this is a completely erroneous assumption: the growth and large physique went to the actress by nature. In the photo above, you can see Christie next to her colleagues in the series.
