On the THRRoundtable, Jennifer Lawrence, Michelle Yeoh, Michelle Williams, Danielle Deadwyler, Emma Corrin and Claire Foy talk about depicting trauma without fetishizing it, why female directors are better than male ones and the power of saying no:
Claire Foy, Danielle Deadwyler, Emma Corrin, Michelle Yeoh, Jennifer Lawrence and Michelle Williams were photographed by Danielle LevittBut isn’t it good that [we] want the role? Don’t you want someone who’s really passionate and will bring their full game rather than just casting an actress who’s like, “Oh, OK.”Don’t go to anyone’s house.A lot of the times I get the script, and it’s not written for a woman like me. I remember doingwith Danny Boyle.
“What I’m thinking about is how often actors are made to feel like children,” says Williams. “But it’s happening less and less.”How much does it help once you’ve got your costume, or your props, once you can touch something?Mamie [Till-Mobley] is much more of a woman of a certain era, and I am a bit of a thug. The costuming, it just pulls you up erect. She’s already going through a particular kind of taut experience, a tightrope experience, but the dresses just make you elongate.
“I’ve seen emotional men. I’ve seen the biggest hissy fits thrown on set. Female director[s] are the calmest, best decision makers I’ve ever worked with,” says Lawrence of the perception of women helmers.
