in 2018. That’s when Robin Wright, who starred in the political thriller and directed 10 episodes, announced she was putting acting on pause to focus on feature film directing. She was half right. True, she makes her big-screen directorial debut with the newly released “Land,” but she also stepped into the physically and emotionally draining lead role, one in which she’s frequently the only actor onscreen.
What prompted this move to direct as well as play Edee Holzer, a grief-stricken lawyer who retreats to a remote cabin on a Wyoming mountaintop and gets schooled by Mother Nature? Wright says the decision was born of practicality. “We were running out of time,” Wright says about how both financing and the fluctuating climate of western Canada, where “Land” was filmed, created a tight scheduling window. “But it wasn’t the original plan.
“Land” is filled with your character in long, often dialogue-free scenes. You’ve said that producers Allyn Stewart, Leah Holzer and Lora Kennedy were codirectors. Explain. There were times when I couldn’t run back [to the monitors], and they were watching it live. So it was, like, bullhorns and me [shouting], “What do you think? Was that a good take?” and they’d be like [thumbs down gesture], “Do it again.” They were giving me notes. And every day I welcomed those notes. These three women, all of them have much experience under their belt. I trusted that they had the same vision [as I] for the film and performance.
