WATCH: New Featurette on Rooney Mara Reminds Us It's Not All About Carol
We talk about Carol a lot, but now it's time to shed some light on Therese Belivet.
We're big fans of Carol - both the film based on Patricia Highsmith's novel The Price of Salt and Cate Blanchett's portrayal of the titular character - but there would be no Carol without Rooney Mara's luminescent, adventurous portrayal of Carol's lover Therese Belivet. It also seems the world agrees, because Rooney Mara is getting just as much award season recognition this year as her co-star. Now, after the recent release of several new Carol featurettes featuring Cate, screenwriter Phyllis Nagy, and composer Carter Burwell, we've been given one Therese herself and, of course, the woman behind her. In this clip, Rooney and the creative team delve into the awakening mind of the young shopclerk, the similarities between love and crime novels, and why Rooney is perfect for this part. Watch now:
If you haven't seen Carol yet, find a theater near you right here. You'll definitely want to before awards season!
