“'How the West was Won' was very hard, because it was a three cameras technique, meaning three cameras wide. Therefore I wasn't speaking to my fellow performer, I was speaking to a camera, or a line next to the camera. It was difficult to do, because its not real acting. I had to pretend that I was 'seeing' Agnes Moorhead or Jimmy Stewart or Carroll Baker. I wasn't, I was acting to a drawn line. It took me personally two years to make the film, because my character starts at age 16 and I end up being 92 years old in the film. By the end of that production, I was ready for a long nap.” YearsLongTwoRealEndsHardCharacterAgeFilmThreeNextDifficultLinesActingSeeingReadyCamerasFellowsWestProductionsWideTechniqueTwo YearsPerformersJimmyNapsBakersJimmy Stewart Author:Debbie Reynolds

“It's very different - the European way of working and the American way of working. There are two sides for each of them. In Italy, or France, we take it very slow. For example, we would have a lunch break of an hour or more. Just sitting down at the table, chitchatting. In America, it's like, "Grab your sandwich, we're ready to shoot in 10 minutes." But at the same time, everything works so much better in America. It's more efficient, so it's easier to bring the results home faster.” WayTwoDifferentHomeAmericaSidesHoursResultsBreakMinutesExampleReadyEasierSittingTablesFranceFasterLunchEfficientSandwichesTwo SidesSitting DownLunch Break Author:Bianca Balti
“I remember it made me feel better because so many of my friends at school. Were doing that stuff and doing that stuff on sleep overs. But I just didn't feel ready. It wasn't like I had any judgment of it being two women. It would have scared me as much if not more. I was like a three month period in which all the words sleep over was code for was "let's get together and touch each other's vaginas." and I was. Haunted. And I remember going home and feeling like I couldn't tell my mother even though she would've understood and probably laughed.” IfsFeelsMadeTwoFeelingsHomeSchoolTogetherRememberMotherThreeStuffSleepReadyMonthsPeriodsJudgmentUnderstoodMy FriendsScaredCodeLaughedFeel BetterGet TogetherThree MonthsGoing Home Author:Lena Dunham

“It's certainly true that I was brought up in that British amateur tradition, the one which always held that if you were reasonably good at cricket, knew one or two Latin texts and a few zingy Oscar Wilde quotes for dinner parties, you were pretty much ready to go and run some outpost in Hindustan.” IfsTwoRunningPartyReadyTraditionDinnerBritishLatinOscarsCricketDinner PartyWilde Author:Damian Lewis
