So I wanted to exercise that [dramatic] muscle a little bit, but I was pretty open-minded. This just came along, and I always think a sure sign that I should do something is when I’m reading it and I start reading the lines out loud just because it’s fun. So it’s for no one’s benefit but my own, and that’s when I’m like, “Well, if I’m having fun doing this right now, I should probably go and do this for a job.”

So I believed it will be enjoyable for me to observe some YouTube movies of folks that she would possibly wish to emulate after which perform a little little bit of an affectation. It’s not an impression, nevertheless it’s extra like this sense that she doesn’t appear completely real. There’s one thing happening there that feels somewhat performative.”
