Natasha Lyonne (nlyonne) talks 'Poker Face,' creating characters who subvert leading-lady tropes, and why she's happier in her 40s than she's ever been before
I saw a character who was the perfect mix of feminine and masculine.
For sure. You get to circumnavigate all the traditional, overused tropes surrounding how we think of female characters. Especially when they’re the central character, it seems that they’re defined by an outer life. I remember, as a teenager, seeinglooking up at the ceiling fan while the Doors’ “The End” was playing. It’s so fascinating to watch a human being in process, ruminating, that we trust that to hold an audience’s attention.
The landscape is always changing, in terms of what is or isn’t getting made. And the hope is always that you can sneak things through. It’s never been easy to get original things made. We always need a champion to fight for it.
