The actress, who is set to host 'Saturday Night Live' when it returns Jan. 21, explains the impact of the weapon's absence on the film's tension.
“I think that’s a really cool kind of weird thing about the film because most thrillers introduced guns immediately,” theIn the film, Plaza stars as Emily, a woman struggling to pay off student loans after her felony conviction keeps preventing her from securing a well-paying job. When a friend introduces her to a “dummy shopper” service — which is actually a credit card fraud ring — that will help her make cash fast, she spirals further into the fraud industry.
Fallon noted that the absence of guns wasn’t something he immediately noticed and had only picked up on after seeing the film and reading critics’ responses to it. “It’s an unconscious thing, I think, for the audience to watch that movie and not even realize like, ‘Oh, there’s no guns,'” Plaza responded. “But I think it actually makes it more anxiety-inducing because you’re like, ‘How is she going to take these guys down without a weapon like that?'”
For the actress, the lack of firearms in the film is ultimately something that she appreciates. “I was kind of proud of that because I don’t think you need guns,” she told Fallon. “We don’t need guns.”
