Erica Tremblay joins to discuss Kelly Reichardt's film Certain Women. Erica is the director of new film Fancy Dance, which follows Lily Gladstone as Jax, who searches for her missing sister and cares for her niece, as they prepare for an upcoming powwow.
Erica offers a super insightful analysis of Reichardt's film and walks through casting Lily Gladstone in her own film, her inspirations as a director, and working with the nearly extinct Cayuga language in Fancy Dance. This conversation can't be missed!
Certain Women: in Livingston, Montana, the intersecting lives of three women illuminate tensions between old and new, and male and female, in the American West. Attorney Laura Wells is dealing with an unstable client. Gina is building a period-inspired home with her husband, who has just broken off his affair with Laura. And Jamie, a lonely ranch hand played by Lily Gladstone in her starmaking role, chances into an education law night class and forges a bond with teacher Beth, a junior attorney who works at Laura’s practice.
