Sona O'Brien

Oh, yeah.

She introduced me to... She is the brains of our outfit.

But she said an interesting thing, which is... I mean, I was telling her that this movie, it's going to be tough for you.

It's not going to be easy because...

It's very visceral about what a woman goes through who is a mom and trying to handle it all when her husband's off doing talk shows.

But I know she's going to love it, but also that it's going to push some buttons.

She did read the script.

And she said to me, I didn't know people wrote scripts like this anymore in the nicest way.

Yeah, so I'm, you know,

Mary really wanted to get... The film is so you, up to the point where the camera is so close to you so much of the time.

And initially, did that freak you out at all?

You sent the dailies to your dermatologist.

My goodness me.

You've done so much work in film and yet this seems like a big evolution or step forward or change in some way because it pretty much is, I mean, yeah, ASAP Rocky, myself, you guys have some people tossed in there, but we're, and we're playing the parts that we need to play, but this is, this is you.

And that was that was that was I think it's one of the most powerful things about the film is you're it is your journey.

And I think I've heard you say that so often it's easy for a woman to be an appendage in a film or like, you know, you're the of course, you're the co-equal or less.

Anything less than total fulfillment.

Total fulfillment, yeah.

You know, isn't it just the most joyous, totally fulfilling?

Yes, yeah.
