Patricia Clarkson’s Fight for Equal Pay and How Harvey Weinstein Tried to Blacklist Her | Talk Easy

After nearly four decades of working in Hollywood, actor Patricia Clarkson (The Station Agent, Pieces of April) says her portrayal of women’s rights activist Lilly Ledbetter is “the greatest privilege” in her storied career. We sat with the legendary actress as part of this year’s Aspen Ideas Festival to discuss her powerful turn in Lilly, her colorful New Orleans upbringing, and the educator who first recognized Patricia’s talent. Then, she reflects on her life-changing move from Louisiana to New York City, years of training at the Yale School of Drama, and her early film roles opposite Kevin Costner in The Untouchables and Clint Eastwood in The Dead Pool. On the back-half, we discuss her transformation in the groundbreaking 1998 film High Art, her process of “total immersion” on set, and how that commitment led to a call from director Martin Scorsese and a pivotal part in Shutter Island. To close, we talk through Patricia’s raucous role in Easy A, her ongoing fight for equal pay in Hollywood, and her lifelong love of Thornton Wilder’s Our Town. Thoughts or future guest ideas?
