Helen Mirren is quite the accomplished actress. The baby boomer has graced the silver screen and as a result of her work, she has won an Academy Award, four SAG Awards, four BAFTAs, three Golden Globes, four Emmy Awards, and two Cannes Film Festival during her career.Her most recent work is on the film 'Love Ranch' where she plays the boss of a brothel. While most may feel uncomfortable with the role, Mirren says it's about as romantic as I can handle.She recently told British Newspaper The daily Express that I dont really like romantic movies very much and I hate talking about feelings, so Im definitely a man in disguise...This is an interesting extension of what we've heard from Helen in the past. She's been known to have said that she has "no maternal instinct whatsoever" when asked about her desire to have children.In 2008, Mirren went on the record and indicated that she had been date raped as a student and often took cocaine in the 1980's while at many British parties.Do you think her past has anything to do with her outlook on motherhood or romantic roles as an actress?
