  • Bo Burnham’s leap from CZcams to cinema took another step at Sundance 2020 with his performance in “Promising Young Woman.” But for the “Eighth Grade” director, playing the male lead in Emerald Fennell’s provocative thriller about sexism and harassment led to a lot of nerves.
    “Holding a coffee cup and just looking like I’m from planet Earth was enough of a challenge,” Burnham joked to TheWrap’s Beatrice Verhoeven. “Just the simple act of business and sort of integrating it, and meanwhile I’m holding a french fry and wondering, ‘Do I look like I even have human DNA at this point?'”

      @HenriBalla Před 2 lety +29

      Although Bo's mental health and anxiety struggles are real, Inside is not an accurate biographical video diary of any sorts. That's a character he was playing. He wasn't actually living in a studio and descending into madness - at least not in the way it was portrayed there. His brilliance is that it almost makes you feel like it's real, because it just resonates with you so much.
