GRACE VAN PATTEN: Emily, I’m so excited to do this with you! I wish it were in person. I’m in your hometown.MORTIMER: I’m in Cleveland. The whole reason I’m here is because I’m chaperoning my kids on a Noah Baumbach movie. It’s interesting to suddenly have the point of view of a mom who’s wanting them to be happy, but also being anxious about this whole crazy universe of what it is to be a performer. So, I have millions of questions for you.
MORTIMER: Did you know what you were getting into? Did anyone say, “Listen, this can be really hard”? MORTIMER: You can feel that vibe in watching it. It’s an interesting study of group dynamics. Do you get that where you look at this group of people at first and you’re like, “I have nothing in common with anyone here, how is this going to work out?” But by the end they’re your brothers and sisters and you’re crying saying goodbye to each other. You become so close partly because you know the experience is coming to an end.
MORTIMER: Seeing people dealing with death and accepting that it’s a universal experience is something we haven’t seen in our culture. It’s like we’re convinced it won’t happen if you go to your shrink, take your pill, drink your wheatgrass, do your yoga. But we’ve had to face it in the last year in a way we haven’t had to in a while. It’s helpful to see stories of people managing their grief. I really felt that watching your character.
MORTIMER: Crazy? I need to know who this filmmaker is. I need a description of her immediately because I’m fascinated by her. She’s created such a specific world that is totally original and mad.
