Rosalie Kunoth-Monks, also known as Ngarla Kunoth (born 1937), is an Australian film actress and Aboriginal activist. ==Early life and education== Rosalie Kunoth was born in 1937 at Utopia Cattle Station (''Arapunya'') in the Northern Territory of Australia to parents of the ''Amatjere'' people. Her paternal grandfather was German, hence her German surname.〔TV program scipt of interview with Kunoth-Monks, (【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.australianbiography.gov.au/subjects/kunothmonks/ )〕 In 1951, Kunoth was 14 years old and staying at St Mary's Hostel in Alice Springs when the film directors Elsa and Charles Chauvel saw her and recruited her to play the title role in their 1955 film ''Jedda''.〔Lockwood, Douglas (1970) ''We, the Aborigines'', Walkabout Pocketbooks〕 Her nickname was Rosie, but the Chauvels changed her name for the screen to Ngarla Kunoth.〔 Kunoth was the first Indigenous female lead. The groundbreaking film was played for audiences at the Cannes Film Festival 60 years later in 2015. In 1970 she married Bill Monks, settled in Alice Springs and had a daughter — Ngarla.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rosalie Kunoth-Monks」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
