00:00Nobody panic. You are making such a mess. Welcome to Afternoon Tea with Blake and
00:08Colleen. Hello. Okay, how do you feel about getting to share your stories with an
00:12even wider audience of moviegoers? You know a lot of times adaptations get a
00:17lot of flack for not sticking to the book and I really feel like this one has
00:21been very faithful. So I am extremely ecstatic to see the reaction going on
00:29set. It was mind-blowing because it was even more than what my imagination
00:33could capture. The reason that I was excited to do this movie is that I saw
00:39the mention of your name. I was like, oh wow, her voice resonates with people. How
00:44she tells stories and what she's telling reaches out and grabs so many people. And
00:49then I fell in love with Lily. I want to play this woman because I understand why
00:54she experiences what she experiences. There was like an authenticity to it.
00:58That's really powerful. I appreciate you taking on the role and doing it so well
01:03and bringing to the character what I had intended in the book and you did it on
01:09screen in such a powerful way.
