An: I didn't generally have much learning about her by any means. I truly was in particular, as a great many people, acquainted with her through the picture.

Q: Which of her numerous aspects was the most difficult to catch?

A: Reproducing the death. You have so much freedom when you don't generally recognize what happened. When she is conversing with the minister or her closest companion, or to Bobby (Kennedy) you are allowed to play. In any case, the death is so impossible and the Zapruder film (of the death) is iconic to the point that it felt exceptionally startling to accomplish something that outrageous sincerely which is choked by reality.

Q: You did a considerable measure of research. What was the most supportive?

A: Her 1962 White House visit for television was extremely useful. We reproduced that precisely, shot for shot. I figured out how to be correct to her rhythms, and where she takes an interruption, furthermore the highlight. She did an entire arrangement of meetings with history specialist Arthur Schlesinger to characterize the (Kennedy) legacy.

A: That is the lovely thing of the film that (Chilean chief) Pablo Larrain has made - it's not endorsing what you ought to think. You're seeing a wide range of sides of a convoluted lady. You see her quality and her weakness, her snapshots of being wild, her snapshots of being extremely controlled, her obligation and her lack of caution.

Q: Did you like her?

An: I think you can't pass judgment on your character when you play her, or else you wouldn't have the capacity to. Presently, having gone to the opposite side, I adore her. I have such a great amount of profound respect for her and how she defeated this inconceivable disaster and made an existence that was truly persuasive.
