Zoe Kravitz discusses making her feature directorial debut, Blink Twice.
The Big Picture Zoë Kravitz has been soaring as an actress in this industry for years now. Her talent is raw and undeniable, so hopes were high that it’d translate to great success behind the lens as well. Not only does she meet those expectations with her feature directorial debut, Blink Twice, but she far exceeds them. The resolute and assured filmmaking on display in this Amazon MGM Studios release instantly makes Kravitz one of the most exciting directors on the rise in Hollywood.
Making a Film About "Power and Taking Back Power" PERRI NEMIROFF: A big two-part question about writing this. What was idea #1, the thing that started it all? But then also I want to know, did you have a break story moment, something you came up with along the way that made you think, “This is whole now?”
Zoë Kravitz: From Acting to Directing I wanted to bring up something that you mention in your director's statement. A good chunk of it was about how you grew up in rooms that had very powerful people in them, and eventually, you came to realize that sometimes those spaces aren't safe spaces to speak up in.
KRAVITZ: Oh, that’s a great question. Honestly, I learned a lot from many different directors. I had just worked with Steven Soderbergh right beforehand, and obviously, he's the master that he is. He edits in his mind, and so he is so efficient in his shooting, and I think that was something I really learned from in terms of, “Okay, don't just shoot the normal, ‘Okay, we're gonna go wide, and then we're gonna close.
You brought up the visuals in that answer so I’ll go there next. I'm essentially going to ask you to choose your favorite child right now. What is your single favorite frame of your movie? Because, I’ll emphasize, this movie is absolutely stunning from top to bottom.
