Brie Larson recently sat down for an interview with Elle Magazine, where she talked about awards season, and her strained relationship with her father. The magazine quotes her as follows:
On awards season:
"It was pretty much, like, Helen Mirren, Cate Blanchett, Saoirse Ronan, and me. Then Jennifer Lawrence came in for a little bit, and Kate Winslet, Carey Mulligan...You're having meals together, and doing these roundtables—I felt like I was hallucinating. Most of those people I'd never met before, so it was like the moment when you're not at the kid's table anymore...Kate Winslet saw me and ran across the room and grabbed me and with such a beautiful intensity and said, 'I am so fucking excited for you!' love her."
On not having spoken to her father in 10 years:
"When legally I didn't have to have visitation with him anymore, I jumped on it. As a kid I tried to understand him and understand the situation. But he didn't do himself any favors. I don't think he ever really wanted to be a parent. It wasn't until truly recently that I realized that's why so much of my work was so volatile. All of the stuff I wasn't dealing with in my actual life—all of this anger, my fears and my vulnerabilities—I didn't feel comfortable expressing...when we're out in the public space, everyone's perfect and good, and we're all nice women, and we dress well and we brush our hair and agree with these customs."
