MSN Talks with Sarah Gadon
Cast Interview Sarah GadonSean Plummer from MSN.ca gives us some of Sarah Gadon’s thoughs on a few things Cosmopolis.
About watching the film herself:
Gadon herself admits that it wasn’t until she saw the film for a second time at Cannes last month that she was “able to participate in watching the film, and laugh, and then have moments where I was really in it and really out of it. There was an ebb and flow to my engagement in the film as a spectator. And instead of being frustrated by that feeling, I went with it, and ultimately I think I got a lot more out of it.”
About her character Elise:
“What I loved so much about her was that she deflects everything that her male romantic lead projects on to her,” Gadon says. “[Eric] said, ‘I want you to be sexy, I want you to think this, I want to have sex with you, I want to this, I want to that.’ And all she does is deflect, deflect, deflect. And it’s more freeing, I think, than people realize, as a woman, playing someone who just says ‘No! I will not allow you to dictate how I feel in this emotion or sit in this scene! I’m just going to, y’know, listen, or I’m just going to, y’know, deflect.’ And that’s what I think is really kind of interesting about that final scene is when he says, ‘Well, I’m not going to be the man that you want me to be,’ and she says, ‘Okay, well, I’m out then!’ There’s something that I find really interesting about that.”
About working with Robert Pattinson:
“And then all of a sudden he put on his suit, and this American accent would come out, and he would be so sure of himself and so powerful! And direct! And it was amazing to me to see that transformation of going from himself into Eric Packer. And I think that there’s few, few guys right now in the industry who can pull off that kind of powerful masculinity at such a young age.”
