looking forward to seeing this movie, i've heard it's good.

it's nice to see her criticizing polanski. her response stands out to me in stark contrast to what zoe kravitz said, who recently went out of her way to praise his films when she was doing the press rounds for her directorial debut. i know we shouldn't expect much from celebs, but it was honestly appalling she did that given the themes of blink twice.

I used to find her kinda obnoxious but I was really moved by her performance on Alice, darling, so I kinda liked her ever since lol Plus, I always appreciate when women openly talk about not wanting children, we need more childfree representation that isn’t Chelsea Handler.

Other people: don’t you want kids?
Me: no, I’d neglect them.
Other people: well, maybe you’ll change your mind one day!

Who was this horrible ex she speaks of??

[kwoneunbi]

Not naming who it is out of respect to Anna, but it's not Bill Hader because the timelines don't match and it's not Edgar Wright given that she's remained on good terms with him since they split.

By the process of elimination I get it, thanks!

since she lit up the twilight movies a brief reprieve from the suck, she has been my girl. she is delightful.
