This is so weird. Why would they hire her in the first place if they needed a fat actress? Why would she insist on a fat suit to the point of being fired? Why did she think it was a good idea to wear a fake nose to play a Jewish woman?

All three are excellent points. her decision making process is baffling.

[squirrels_oh_no]

Maybe they thought she would go full on Christian Bale?

Why did she think it was a good idea to wear a fake nose to play a Jewish woman?

sis, i agree with your fat suit comments, but it's not fair to make her fake nose request about racism. the woman in that picture has a very distinctive nose and julianne moore has a teeny tiny non-nose like dwight schrute. wearing prosthetics isn't fun, it's something julianne thought was necessary to better portray the character. are you going to come for nicole kidman for english-shaming virginia woolf too?

this comment is desperate and pathetic

Wow you really made this a whole ass hill

looooool @ the idea that wearing a prosthetic nose to play a Jewish woman is the same as wearing a prosthetic nose to play Virginia Woolf, c’mon.

Right? This is confusing. Maybe they wanted a thin woman in the role even tho the irl woman is fat, and she was set on it being “truer to life?”

[frelling_tralk]

That’s my assumption, that they wanted her to look recognisable as Julianne Moore still, and so that was why her ideas for a fat suit and prosthetic nose were refused, but who knows!
