The actress, who has a career-defining performance in one of the year's best movies, breaks down the challenges she faced while filming the existential romance, her views on what ifs, and how she thinks Nora's story plays out.
There are many layers of in-yun , a Korean term meaning providence or fate, between actress Greta Lee and Nora, the playwright Lee portrays in the profound A24 film. Directed and written by Celine Song, the semi-autobiographical drama which released nationwide on Friday, follows the decades-long romance of Nora and Hae-sung, childhood sweethearts who reunite twenty-some years after Nora immigrates to North America.
The whole movie is about the choices you make—the person you choose, a city you choose to live in, or a job you choose to take—and all the ones that you don't choose. GL: I think I'm somewhere in between. The thing about Nora that's so amazing is she is so steady in what she wants. She is so unapologetically ambitious. When we meet her in New York, she's good. She's flourishing. It's from that place she's unexpectedly forced to confront this person who acts as a hologram to a different part of her life or a different life she could have had. For me, personally, I can relate.
