Oh god Jonathan Bailey, stop interrupting Naomi Watts!

You can tell she's a slower speaker than most people (same, I had a hard time when I first arrived in NYC from PDX and NOLA) and it shows in her work, which is totally okay. It makes me appreciate her acting more.

But this guy keeps coming at her with more questions and then interrupting as she's answering; he is being so annoying with that theatre kid "me me mememe" energy (is this what they call "main character energy"?

If so, it's tew much babes! He's exhausting!

Brie Larson is so stunning.

i watched the debicki/corrin one (missed the post for that one) and actually really enjoyed hearing about the different ways they approached playing diana, as well as what it was like working with the same research team for the part. it seemed like there was a lot of genuine respect and admiration between them (and i loved both of their performances to boot).

i checked out the one with anna sawai and tom hiddleston this morning and it was a little goofy hearing her powerhouse performance compared to like "changing the multiverse" or whatever lmao. at the same time, they were both sooo earnest about their love for acting which is gonna win me over at least a little. i'll give the brie larson and andrew scott one a go too (even though i still haven't finished ripley, sorry andrew!)
