00:00I know that this movie and this book deals with a lot of heavy topics and I

00:04just wanted to call out a monologue that you say at the end of the movie. It was

00:07really beautifully done. How challenging was it to work through that scene?

00:12That's a big challenge. I think it's a big challenge to play someone who has

00:17received devastating news or like it just a heartbreaking story, a life-changing

00:23story. You know this character, I don't want to do any spoil, spoil, spoils as

00:27spoils, right? That's what everybody always says. I don't want to do spoils so

00:31I won't do spoils. But yeah, I think I really wanted to be able to show that my

00:38character Alyssa is okay with showing heartbreak and showing that she's sad

00:45without putting shame back onto Blake's character Lily and I think that's like a

00:51really hard line to walk but I felt proud of it at the end of the day. I felt

00:57that we were both able to show two women who were handling many things at

01:01once and remaining bonded, remaining strong. Yeah. I know your character and

01:06Blake's character build such an instant bond from the beginning. How were you

01:10able to build off of that off screen and was there anything that kind of you had

01:15any bonding activities off screen to kind of build that? I think it was one of

01:19those lucky situations where your cast is people who hopefully have this instant

01:24chemistry because of course Alyssa walks into Lily's flower shop and like asked

01:29for a job right then. But I feel that in our own way Blake and I had that

01:34experience that we were just kind of curious about each other and Blake is

01:39really warm. She really asks a lot of beautiful questions. She's very caring and

01:45and and willing to share. And for me that's kind of like it's all I like you

01:51know it's like my favorite thing is like I just really like that and I'm very

01:54chatty and I felt like we fell right into a chatty onset vibe that then became

01:59deep and I'm really grateful for our friendship. Yeah.
