QUALLEY: It’s awesome. It’s especially awesome just for like selfish, logistic reasons. I’ve been here for six months in quarantine, and you can’t have visitor. It’s really lovely to have my mom here. I go and have dinner with her on Sundays. She cooks for me, and it’s great. And then as far as working with her, it’s also awesome. She’s an amazing actress, so I feel lucky.
RAKOFF: Watching your mom growing up, did you always want to act? Or you thought you were going to dance professionally? And I don’t actually think I want to be a dancer. I think I just have been working really hard to be perfect for a really long time, and actually maybe I just will never be perfect. So maybe I should stop trying and try to stay here.” And so I wrote a letter to my mom and found a school for kids that worked and started modeling for a second, just to give myself an excuse to stay in New York. I had to convince everyone to let me live alone. And I did that.
And then there was the story itself. It very much resonated with me, because I think part of the story is about, even if you have your life teed up to look great on paper—you got a good job, you’re living in a city that you want to live in, you’re doing all the things that you should be doing—you’re not necessarily fulfilled. You put yourself out there in a massive way, in a way that maybe wasn’t even good all the time. But it ultimately led you to chase your dreams.
