Marriage Story (2019)

“And to be honest, all the problems were there in the beginning, too. I just went along with him in his life, because it felt so damn good to feel myself alive. In the beginning, I was the actress, the star, so that felt like something. People came to see me, at first. But then the farther away I got from that and the more the theatre company got acclaim, I had less and less weight. I became ‘Who?’ ‘Oh you remember, that actress who was in that thing that time.’ And he was the draw. And that would have been fine, but… I got smaller. I realized that I didn’t really ever come alive for myself, I was just feeding his aliveness.” - Marriage Story (2019)
