Back To One

Dolly de Leon


Listen Later

Dolly de Leon is a Filipina veteran actor of film and TV who is now, due to her outstanding performance in “Triangle of Sadness,” being spoken about with words like “newcomer” and “breakthrough.” That might have something to do with the “I’m the captain now” nature of the role she plays in the Palme d’Or winning film. It’s like the character and the actor are both saying “I have arrived.” In this episode, she describes the dark place she was in right before auditioning for the part, how director Ruben Ostlund’s collaborative approach sparked her dynamic creativity, why watching the film with audiences cheering for her character feels like live theater, and much more.
