From her early days at the Royal Shakespeare Company, Helen Mirren continues to personify female figures with emblematic personalities, perhaps most notably a duty-bound yet emotionally conflicted Elizabeth II in The Queen (2006) or more recently the Czarina Catherine the Great (2019). She is the recipient of this year's Honorary Golden Bear at the Berlinale. Dame Mirren has starred in countless theatre, film, and television productions and her shelves are appropriately laden with prestigious awards, including an Oscar. MoMA film curator Rajendra Roy retraces the milestones of a career with the actress who lived it.
