The mother is Andie MacDowell (“Not advice, but a positive example”), the protagonist of “Sanctuary” made herself known thanks to Tarantino and the series “Maid”

His mother, Andie MacDowell, is convinced: “She is braver than I ever was.” Her daughter, Margaret Qualley, born in 1994, has some doubts. “I can’t tell. I have great admiration for her, for how she experiences her relationship with what matters to her. More than advice from her, I received a positive example. The only true limit is the sky, she always repeated to me ». It was the role of Pussycat in Once Upon a Time in America that got her noticed by the general public who appreciated her in the Netflix series Maid, but the young actress — just seen in Zachary Wigon’s Sanctuary, arriving at Christmas on the IWonderfull platform — started working early. On the tips. «I did all kinds of dance, then at one point I chose classical ballet». After some time in a company however, she changed her mind. «I understood that she wasn’t for me, I left everything and went to New York, keeping myself as a model. But I believe that if you are a dancer, you are forever, I realize that I put it in what I do, in my work as an actress». Thanks to that background she won the role of Ginger Rogers, opposite Jamie Bell, in the biopic Ginger and Fred. “I don’t know when filming starts, I can’t wait.”

In Sanctuary she stars with Christopher Abbott. The protagonists are Hal, a wealthy heiress, and Rebecca, her client, a sex professional. He rather clumsy, eager to end a relationship that has become embarrassing, she impatient dominatrix. A game for two in the suite of a luxury hotel in which the spectator finds it hard to understand the rules and outcomes. «It’s a bit dark comedy, a bit thriller, a strange love story. Let’s say a genre rom-com, where the erotic aspect lies in the dialectical exchange between the two, in the challenge to the last word. My Rebecca is a tough, intelligent and loving woman, capable of psychologically dominating others. The film is funnier than you might think, a reflection on roles in love relationships, an investigation into the power we have over others and the fear of losing control. I had a great time with Rebecca. Also for the opportunity to act with Chris Abbot, a real marathon for two, we shot everything in a row in eighteen days, based faithfully on Zachary’s script». She has a busy schedule. She is her in Drive Dolls by Ethan Coen, in the cast of Poor Things by Yorgos Lanthimos (expected in Venice). «I would very much like to work with some Italian authors. I’m launching an appeal: I’m here.” She’s not that she’s a workaholic. When she’s not working, she says, she knows where to stay. «With my partner (Jack Antonoff, musician and producer, collaborator of Lana Del Rey and Taylor Swift, ed). He is my person in life. Home is where he is.”
