Julianne Moore calls out Trump on guns: ‘This is a national emergency’
There are two reasons why, on this otherwise gloomy Manhattan day, Julianne Moore is invigorated: the first film she’s produced, After the Wedding, is hitting theaters this Friday; and the NRA—her sworn nemesis—is bordering on bankruptcy.
When our conversation turns to the recent mass shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, that left 30 people dead, words fail her, and she becomes distraught. Exactly! Exactly.
