Show Notes

Julianne Moore joins the show to talk about her role in Todd Haynes' May December. The film follows Gracie (Moore) and her husband Joe (Charles Melton), whose notorious romance gripped the nation when it made tabloid news twenty years ago. When a Hollywood actress (Natalie Portman) meets them to do research for a film about their past, the couple buckles under the pressure.


Moore reflects on meeting Haynes while auditioning for his 1995 film Safe and explains how it led to their long-running creative relationship, details how she developed the nuances of Gracie's character, and shares what it was like to work with Portman and Melton for the first time.


She also reflects on making the unexpected jump from theatre and TV to film as a young actor, shares the moment her first Academy Award nomination truly sank in, and talks about getting recognized on the 6 train in New York City.
