"Following these very small cracks in the glaze of this vase has been so rewarding. Because they don’t say plot should dictate character, they say character should dictate plot. Which sounds easy enough, but it’s not, when you need to hit milestones, get certain ratings, or, in this case, you’re a prequel and have to hit certain plot points. Every time Kim shifted, it was shocking, and then it wasn’t. You’re like, 'Oh, right, that’s probably who she was.' Or, 'Oh, right, that does seem like an organic, albeit bizarre, reaction to that event.' That has been so much fun, to work that hard on that level of detail of human behavior, so that you can afford yourself a story that you never saw coming." -Rhea Seehorn, Rolling Stone
just found out that Kim Novak shares birthday with Kim Wexler, did u know that when you wrote acb?
ahhhhh happy birthday to kim novak!!
i didn't know that! i referenced her in acb because of how she co-starred with a jimmy in vertigo and had some iconic twirly hair while she did it. i dont really think there are many other parallels with that movie, except maybe something about masks and changing identities.
happy birthday jess!!! ty for your incredible analyses of kim wexler and bcs 💕
thank you june!!! it's been a joy (even when we've been agonizing!), i feel so lucky to have found our little welcoming and insightful community here, and to be able to talk about bcs and kim with people like you 💛💛💛
