NEW YORK: American actress Jennifer Lawrence has addressed Amy Adams’ revelation that director David O. Russell made her cry on set.
Speaking on The New York Times’ The Interview podcast while promoting her latest film Die My Love, Lawrence, who worked with Russell at age 23, shared her perspective. She said, “I really felt like with David that was his way of communicating in a non-bull—way. I never felt like he was degrading or yelling at me.” Lawrence explained that Russell was direct when giving feedback, often saying things like, “That was terrible. Look like s–. Do it better,” which she found constructive.
Acknowledging her own sensitivity, Lawrence added, “I mean, yes, of course I’m sensitive. I’m really sensitive,” but clarified that she is not sensitive about acting or competition. She noted, “Maybe he was harder on her than he was on me. I don’t know.”
