"when i read the script, i saw her as more of a victim, as one-dimensional...that’s my fault and not the fault of the script or the writing. it was just where i was in my life. i was looking to play someone who i felt was more confident, more grounded - when i came back around, i saw margaret as a completely different entity – as a mother. i was able to identify with her as a woman in a way that i wasn’t before. [margaret lived] in a time when we didn’t speak out publicly against 'our man'. and then i played a character in 'the master', another really powerful woman from the era, who stood behind a man and didn’t come forward. after that, i felt i understood the era and the beginnings of feminism, so i saw margaret from a very different perspective"
