You never raise your voice. If you need to, you walk out of the room, you sort your shit out, you come back, and you do your job. So whilst we were doing these scenes, there were moments when I, as Rebecca, felt I\u2019m feeling something in my throat. I\u2019m actually feeling sad, and if I lean into this, I\u2019m going to burst, start crying any second. So I would turn and leave my station, and then Kathryn would come back and go, \u201cWhere did you go?\u201d And I said, \u201cI just walked into the room. I had a moment.\u201d Two seconds later, before we did the take, there was a camera in there. She grabbed it and they followed me in, and I decided to do the phone call in there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">The other time it happened was sitting and looking at my [character\u2019s son\u2019s] dinosaur toy\u2014that wasn\u2019t in the script. I thought, It\u2019s the tiny little human thing that I can bring in sneakily. I leaned away from the camera, but I didn\u2019t realize that there was another camera that grabbed the moment\u2014it wasn\u2019t planned.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">The film feels especially timely at the moment, in this country.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">It\u2019s important that this is not referring to any form of active presidency in the world, and it\u2019s not just referring to America. There is no one single baddie in this film. The baddie is the system and the structure, and then you can analyze and have your own opinion. But this is a question about nuclear war and nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">How are you handling the time we\u2019re in now, where there\u2019s so much to be concerned about politically and internationally?<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">I don\u2019t read the news, and I don\u2019t say that lightly. I don\u2019t have Instagram because I didn\u2019t like the way it was feeding me news\u2014it felt filtered. If I read the news, I want to choose my outlet, and I wish to choose from every angle so that I get every perspective. I find people like Kathryn, she deep dives into it and she goes to people who she believes in to give her news and information. I find it hard to give time to that, and I feel like it would break me. I know what\u2019s happening in the world, but I\u2019m not well-versed enough to stand on the barricades to have the arguments. I wish I could, because I\u2019m a person with very strong moral values and opinions. I know exactly where I stand. But I feel like right now, everything that I would say would be an empty platitude in comparison to how I actually feel. I find the world a very sad and horrendous place right now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I was so trained that you do not break your fa\u00e7ade. You never raise your voice.
