Elisabeth Moss Reveals Divides Behind The Scenes Of Girl, Interrupted

Published by Sam

Elisabeth Moss has reflected on the behind-the-scenes of filming the acclaimed 1999 film Girl, Interrupted. The Handmaid’s Tale actor starred alongside Winona Ryder, Angelina Jolie and Brittany Murphy in the Oscar-winning drama about a women’s psychiatric facility.

Speaking on a recent episode of Kelly Ripa’s Let’s Talk Off Camera podcast, Elisabeth revealed that the on-screen tension between Winona and Angelina’s characters meant that the cast naturally became divided when the cameras weren’t rolling. “There were two kinds of camps. There was the Winona Ryder camp and the Angelina Jolie camp,” she said, noting the divides were “based on what was on camera”. Elisabeth continued: “I was in the Winona Ryder camp. The Angelina Jolie camp was really cool. I was intimidated by the Angelina Jolie camp. I had no thoughts of ever being able to be in that camp.” Winona Ryder and Angelina Jolie in Girl, Interrupted The Mad …

Published by skeptic

That is because investigators use thin gelatine layers, called gel lifters, to lift fingerprints. These introduce chemicals to samples, making it difficult to identify trace amounts of drugs or explosives on them. … Source link

Scenes From the Knives-Out Feud Between Barbara Walters and Diane Sawyer

Published by skeptic

Diane and Rosen demanded a meeting with Roone after Barbara managed to steal an interview, this one with John Hinckley Jr., who was confined to a psychiatric hospital for the attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan. “How is thievery an honorable position to take in this and allowing it to happen?” Rosen asked him. Roone, on a speakerphone, didn’t share his outrage. “She outsmarted you,” he said. Their relationship wasn’t simple; it had layers. “I know that nobody, maybe, will believe this,” Diane told me, “but we spent a lot of time laughing and forging a real friendship, and that was true even when I first arrived.” The two of them understood more than anyone else the trials they had faced, the prices they had paid.
