'It was an opportunity to create that and to inhabit that sort of impenetrable, imperious character with that classic idea of femininity.'
Director Tim Burton gave Gwendoline freedom to help create her Larissa Weems character, as well as Larissa's characteristics. This helped Gwendoline put more of herself into the role."He said, 'You can do whatever you like with the character, feel free to make it whatever you want and we'll keep talking about it,'" Gwendoline told"And that was an unbelievable opportunity from this great cinematic master.
"What kept coming to me was this idea of this Hitchcock-style heroin, this screen siren, that maybe that young woman would look to our mystic portal, the cinema, to be an incarnation of her fantasies. And weirdly, Tim had exactly the same idea and so did [costume designer] Colleen Atwood."Gwendoline looked at iconic actors like Tippi Hedren and Kim Novak for inspiration. She admitted that she likes to transform into characters and people who are the complete opposite of herself.
