A world-renowned star since Titanic (James Cameron, 1996), choosing to later star in independent auteur films such as Jane Campion’s Holy Smoke (1999), Kate Winslet made a new turning point in her career by playing the heroine of Mildred Pierce, a mini-series directed by Todd Haynes for cable channel HBO in 2011.
