The Big Picture · The 10 Best Movies of 2026 … So Far · 29 Jun 2026 podcast

Well, I had some very important people on set with me.

I had the cinematographer, Max Lackner, who was such a huge part of all this, obviously.

But, you know, he really, really understood everything quite deeply.

He's also literally training to be a psychoanalyst.

So there was always a kind of...

I don't know.

There, there, there, it was, um, I, I, I felt there, there, he brought an extra layer of kind of like compassion and, um, psychological nuance to all of our discussions.

And, um,

And he really was, I think, a protector of that.

He just totally understood the kind of like bounciness of the movie, you know, the kind of buoyancy of like the tone.

And so he did a great job of like making sure that I was keeping it like...

up um and then my my ex-boyfriend gordon landenberger who we had been not in a relationship for years at this point but he's the production designer and me and max and gordon were all friends and we we you know worked very informally on this movie without you know getting paid before pre-production started we we were living together for a couple weeks even before pre-production and you

And Gordon and I know each other very intimately and he knows, certainly understands certain kind of performance insecurities I have.

And so he was actually, he was incredible kind of emotional support, which is absolutely something that a director has to do, whether they, you know...

tyrannically avoid doing it or not.

But like, anyway, so it was, but all in all, it was incredibly lonely.

It was psychological torture.

I couldn't believe I was doing it to myself.

I was shocked.

And when I was editing the movie and I was watching footage of myself, I mean, I had a day in editing where I was like, I had to leave and go home.
