Q/A Session with Kate Moennig
February 08, 2008
1.) About the scene with the bride in episode 2, when you made this improvisation line " you really remain me someone i used to know a lot" - which is very very great, there are a lot of feelings in it - I would like to know, who is this person? Some people think it's Dana and some people think it's Carmen. So for you, who is it and how did you get this idea to say that line?
Katherine: It was a reference to Carmen. It just kinda came out because the woman playing the bride looked like Sarah a bit. It would have been a missed opportunity to not somehow address it. I've been waiting to acknowledge that whole wedding ditch thing and that seemed to fit in there. Just to prove Shane hasn't completely forgotten what had happened.
2.) What good films or documentaries have you recently seen that make you think different about life or work?
Katherine: I just saw once, La vie en rose and A mighty heart. For me, those films proved that amongst all this popcorn entertainment, there are things out there with a heartbeat. That's inspiring to me.
3.) What's the best advice anyone has ever given you?
Katherine: Start a pension as soon as you can.
4.) What album will you never grow tired of listening to?
Katherine: Hmmm... either Madonna's like a virgin or Patti Smith's horses.
5.) Would you classify yourself as an introvert or extrovert?
Katherine: Both. Depends on the day.
