However, anyone interprets that, I didn’t feel exploited. I felt very much a part of it.”
She added, “There was enormous caretaking by all of us; we were all very gentle with each other and helped each other. It felt very authentic, protected, and, at the same time, real.”
Kidman opened up about feeling nervous over presenting the movie at the Venice Film Festival. The actress said, “Right now, we’re all a bit nervous. I was like, I hope my hand’s not shaking.”
