, now available on premium VOD, sees Tracee Ellis Ross star as fictional diva Gracie Davis alongside Dakota Johnson as her assistant, Maggie. The pair sat down withremotely to discuss where they turned for inspiration and why viewers will love their movie.
"This part, this role, this movie, this story was special enough that it would lead me through my fears to the other side to a little bit of freedom," said Ross. "It was a story that I felt really strongly about telling. This script came along and I chased it. I wanted it so badly and I'm so glad it happened."
"I know people are asking and people want to know, 'Did you take inspiration from your mother, is this a role that is an ode to your mother?'" said Tracee. "It's not. It had nothing to do with my mom. The script had nothing to do with my mom ... It was wonderfully written. It was all on the page and there wasn't far that I had to look [for inspiration]. So between our director and what was written, it was there.
thehighnotefilm FocusFeatures Soundtrack is really good. Movie was fun and better than I thought it would be. Wish some characters had been fleshed out a little more (looking at you Ice); and some parts were a little predictable, but still enjoyable and fun. Who knew Miss Tracee Ellis Ross could sing.
thehighnotefilm FocusFeatures Look forward to it
