“I am very concerned about how narratives can be manipulated and how someone can manipulate their appearance through the narrative to [parecer] a good person. I think right now is a very good period. [preocupante] where that is happening more and more.”
And on Blanchett's work in the series:
“It's crazy [el nivel de compromiso que Cate Blanchett] took on this. I would get text messages every weekend and in the evenings after work with specific feedback on each part of the script and specific dialogues that we should study to make it all more meaningful.”
The outlet shared a new look at Blanchett, which is available at the end of the article.
