We spoke w/ Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Tobias Menzies & Nicole Holofcener about 'You Hurt My Feelings' and self-criticism.
Before writer-director Nicole Holofcener’s dramedy, You Hurt My Feelings hits theaters, Collider’s Steve Weintraub had the opportunity to talk with with the filmmaker and stars of the movie, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Tobias Menzies. From filming on location in the streets of New York City to the “enormous amount of eating” involved, the trio discuss this latest slice of life from A24 Films.
JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUS: My reaction was, “Get me a spit bucket, or give it to Nicole because she'll eat anything!”LOUIS-DREYFUS: I know there's an enormous amount of eating in this movie, which I didn't honestly realize until we were at Sundance and we saw it, and I was like, “Wow, it's endless eating.”LOUIS-DREYFUS: I gained like 10 pounds in the film! No, I didn't, but as an actor, I like having the business of eating in a scene because I think it's a great sort of prop.
HOLOFCENER: But New York, it's tough for both of them to perform. Paparazzi-wise, that's harder for you guys, for sure. LOUIS-DREYFUS: She's not precious with punctuation at all, or really the actual language in the script. But it's not like we go and throw out the script and start from scratch. We are working with a very finely tuned script, but Nicole is collaborative. So if we have thoughts about tweaking something here, or adding this joke here, she's all ears. And so, it has a very organic feeling in the moment.MENZIES: They're really only just grace notes.
