It felt like we already knew each other.
Kathleen said the same thing, and I was like, this is a lot of pressure!
Do you think yourGirlsandDerry Girlscharacters would be friends?
Jackson:Weve actually been talking about it, and I think they would definitely be friends.
It would for sure be a role reversal, and I think Erin would swallow Shoshanna whole.
She would eat Shoshanna for breakfast.
But I think Shoshanna would then have her comeuppance and put Erin back in her box.
I think theyd be an epic pairing.
Mamet:I think they would really enjoy each other.
Theyre both so neurotic, and theyre both really odd ducks.
Costume-wise, were there any pieces fromThe Decameronset that you longed to take home with you?
Mamet:Honestly, we wanted to burn it all.
It was beautiful, but Saoirse was like, Get me the fuck out of this potato sack.
By the tenth hour in it, I had a little mini-meltdown.
Thankfully, we didnt have any corsets, but the trains on those dresses were dangerous.
