The first time Andrea Riseborough was on the podcast (episode 100), we got a chance to hear how this incredible actor approaches her craft. On this episode, we get to focus on her astounding work in the new movie "To Leslie." She talks about the interesting ways shooting on film in the middle of the pandemic affected everything, why working on her character's alcoholism would have been a disaster, finding a touchstone with director Michael Morris in Barbara Loden's "Wanda," taking the objective "to just exist" from Mike Leigh, seeing constrains as freedoms, the importance of keeping your integrity, and much more. "To Leslie" is streaming now.
