Biography

Early life

Christie was born in Chabua, Assam, India, then part of the British Empire, as the first of two children[1] by her mother Rosemary (née Ramsden) and father Frank St. John Christie. Rosemary was a Welsh-born painter and childhood friend of actor Richard Burton. Frank ran the tea plantation around which Christie grew up.[2] She had a brother and a half-sibling from her father's affair with an Indian mistress.[3] Christie's parents separated during her childhood. She was baptized in the Anglican church,[3] and studied at a convent school in England (from which she was later expelled), also living with a foster mother from the age of six.[4] After her parents' divorce, Christie spent time with her mother in rural Wales.

Early career

Christie's first major film role was as Liz, the friend and would-be lover of the eponymous Billy Liar played by Tom Courtenay in the 1963 film directed by John Schlesinger. Schlesinger, who only cast Christie after another actress dropped out of his film, directed her in her breakthrough role, as the amoral model Diana Scott in Darling (1965), a role which the producers originally offered to Shirley MacLaine. Though virtually unknown before Darling (1965), Christie ended the year 1965 by appearing as Lara Antipova in David Lean's adaptation of Boris Pasternak's novel Doctor Zhivago (1965), which was one of the all-time box office hits, and as Daisy Battles in Young Cassidy, the John Ford-Jack Cardiff directed biopic of Irish playwright Sean O'Casey. In 1966, the 25-year-old Christie won the Academy Award for Best Actress for Darling (1965). Later, she played Thomas Hardy's heroine Bathsheba Everdene in Schlesinger's Far from the Madding Crowd (1967) and the lead character, Petulia Danner, (opposite George C.

She moved to Hollywood during the decade, where she had a high-profile (1967-1974), but intermittent relationship with actor Warren Beatty who described her as "the most beautiful and at the same time the most nervous person I had ever known".[4] Following the end of the relationship, she returned to the United Kingdom, where she lived on a farm in Wales.

Based on the Alice Munro short story "The Bear Came Over the Mountain", the movie is the first feature film directed by Christie's sometime co-star, Canadian actress Sarah Polley.

Julie Christie - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (344 words)
Oskar Werner and Julie Christie in Fahrenheit 451 (1966)
Julie Frances Christie (born April 14, 1940) is an Academy Award-winning English actress for her role in the 1965 film, Darling.
Christie was born in Assam, India, to Rosemary Ramsden and Frank St. John Christie (an operator of an Indian-based tea plantation).
Bio for Julie Christie on MSN Movies (557 words)
Thus, Christie was not the "newcomer" that some perceived her to be when she shook film audiences to their foundations in Darling (1965), a poignant time capsule about a stylishly amoral sexual butterfly.
Few of Christie's films of the 1970s and 1980s seemed worthy of her talents -- The Go-Between (1971) and her cameo in Nashville (1975) being exceptions -- though, in fact, she was less interested in pursuing a career than in campaigning for various social and political causes.
Christie's performance in the British TV movie The Railway Station Man (1992) was a choice example of her devotion to social issues -- in this case, the ongoing ideological (and shooting) war in Ireland.
