And look how quickly she stopped caring about Nicole once she got her own baby. Lol
I’m glad she did, I wanted her to get distracted by something to take her attention off Nicole
Omigod I didn't even realize that!
Truth
haha yes, I was thinking about it just another episode :D wow she really forgot about Nicole :D
You are so right!!!!
I think as an actor the most meaty role you can play is a psycho villain. She plays it to perfection!
Yvonne’s comments about the transformation she underwent in the course of her pregnancy, the questions that she posed to herself about what traits she would pass on to her child, her comment about not only giving birth to her child, but also birthing herself as a mother, reaffirm what I have suspected for sometime, which is that she is not only a extremely talented actor, but she is also a sensitive and introspective person.
My friend's mom worked on the set of seasons 1 & 2 and said she's a lovely human, very kind and friendly.
The sign of a great actress/actor is, making the viewer hate you. She is incredible.
And to play off that, the sign of a phenomenal actress/actor is making the viewers then feel bad for you in the next moment. I think that's what I love/hate about Serena Joy so much. Yvonne plays her with this kernel of humanity under all the immorality, and when she chooses to bring it up to the surface, it's so easy to see the complexity of the character. Some of the worst characters in fiction are likeable even despite the fact that they're incredibly destructive. She's one of those vile characters that definitely still sees herself as the hero of her own story. You can see it in her reaction to being hated by others.... this sort of self-righteousness that completely rebuffs personal reflection.
All the actresses in The Handmaid's Tale are
Phenomenal. In particularly Amanda Brugel. When Moira takes Rita to "help" Asher/James. You not only hear Rita's soft & gentle voice but, you hear her
💔heart. I would have loved another scene with them in the kitchen.
I agree, that’s such a beautiful scene & it really shows what a huge & beautiful heart Rita has. She has so much compassion for others, even after all she’s been through. We almost forget that, as person who IS property of Gilead, Rita has had plenty of abuse herself but she manages to always be there for others & somehow sees the best in everyone. I loved when the show started to portray Rita as more loving & more caring than she was in the first & the even second season. The way she was kind of cold, kind of ‘I’ll do my job, you do yours & just stay out of my way’ & then she turns into someone who is much warmer than she appeared when we first got to know her as ‘just another Martha’ in Gilead.
She’s an AMAZING character. She’s one of my favorites, so warm & caring, yet so strong. Let’s face it, Rita fucking rocks!
I’ll never forget the scene when she gets off the plane & meets Luke, I think we were all crying our eyes out!
“June did this, YOUR June did this”! 🥲
Okay, here's the thing... Outside of the courtroom there are protesters in support of Serena, holding up signs of Love, encouragement and approval. The ironic thing is that technically, Serena is not allowed to read those signs.
Also, I wonder how many of the women in that crowd are supportive enough to actually volunteer to go down to Gilead and become handmaids?
Isn't just books that they aren't allowed to read? Because the handmaidens get lists for shopping and the like. I think it's the act of read a book of purpose. If some one pushes a sign in her face and she knows how to read she can't help but read it. 🤣
@@pointeddown Like in the Dark Ages, only the Government Leaders are allowed to read the Bible.
@@pointeddown None of the products in Loaves and Fishes have writing on the labels, it's all pictures so there'd be no reading involved (blew my mind when I read about + observed that!). That's different from signs in the street obvs but just saying it's not just books that are prohibited, at least for Handmaids.
Yvonne is such a beautiful talented actress, her acting choices on the handmaids tale are one of my top favourites
It’s so cute that she’s switching between an American accent to an Australian one
This season has been epic. Cannot fault the acting. Literally has me on the edge of my seat every single episode
We have just had the incredible season finale here in UK, omg, what an ending! Can't wait to see 5th series. Yvonne is absolutely superb as Serena!! All the cast are brilliant.
Her outfit and jewelry is spot on!
She seems so sweet and cheerful, unlike her character.
Yes, she’s played some very different characters in different shows/movies & she’s one of the few actresses that, when you see her being interviewed like this, you just see Yvonne, you don’t see her as Serena at all. She is definitely not typecast & I think that’s hard to do, especially with the character who is so strong like Serena joy.
Serena Joy is my favorite character because of her complexity
The detention room she stays in should look like June’s. Nothing empty. Give her a red dress.. Ugh she has it too good!! They should give her baby to someone else...
Nice to see Luca in this! I can smell his stan energy from the very start of the video.
I'm surprised you got a interview with her? I love Yvonne ever since Dexter.
The interviewers are Australian so is she.
@@justloz8626
Okay.
I love your channel and all the exclusive content you guys create. Such a tasty hidden treasure you are ❤
We love you too, Peter D!
I love Yvone🥰 She answered all the questions very nicely and elaborated her answers very carefully. The interviewers however were pretty dry and quiet
I prefer her simplest beauty with no makeup look at-home style hairdo wearing a tee.
She looks stunning naturally.
Love Yvonne she is such a stunning actress 😘 she should advertise for Swarovski Crystals because for the longest time I thought that was her actual surname 😆 💎
Praised be.
Great actress!
Yvonne I love you so much
So weird to see her in red.
That popped up for me too.
It is satisfying for me . Hope we see that soon
@@samdj717 i doubt she’ll become a handmaid. it would be poor taste for the show and wouldn’t make any sense
@@jacobjacquin It wouldn’t be if Fred were to stay in Canada and Serena would come back to Gilead right? Because then she’d just be a husband less woman with a baby. (Idk if it makes actual sense the laws in Gilead surprise me sometimes 😂)
We’re all in detention here Canada! LOL
When is The Handmaid’s Tale Season 4 going to be shown in England, so frustrating..........
Getting released in June, not sure what date though
Was her accent going back and forth the whole time or is that how she normally talks?
All Aussie all the time!
I cannot believe that shes australian, her accent is perfect, she fooled most americans!
What if Rita ends up adopting her baby...as something could happen to them both eventually.
If the show runners are going for any type of poetic symmetry over the course of the series, when Serena delivers a healthy baby boy, they’ll give it to June.
@@cleverlilvixen wouldn't June hate that??! Forever plagued by Serana's baby and memories of trauma in that household, at Serena's hand. Give the baby to someone he'd be a blessing to and return Serena to Gilead as a handmaid (being a fertile woman after all... 😉)
I think itll be interesting how this works politically. The Waterfords getting this near miraculous pregnancy while in Canada, we see how the conservative religious crowd in Canada receives them as heroes. This seems to be on the news, I wonder how much Gilead is receiving and what will happen there.
I’m just gonna say this...
I’m a conservative, but I would never cheer on Fred and Serena Waterford. And I don’t know one other conservative who would.
I love this series, but I don’t like the way it automatically assumes that Christians would be in favor of a real-life-Gilead. It’s really frustrating.
In the first season, the Republic of Gilead destroyed all religious institutions in favor of their SCIENCE-BASED PLANNED PARENTHOOD.
Never ever get your prominent tooth fixed!!!! It makes your smile so adorable...I'm scared you already have 😟
Oh, and you are an amazing actress (check her out in Stateless, netflix). ❤ you!
I like seeing all her fingers.
It makes no sense that Fred could be the father of Serena's child? Do they really want us to believe that?
I bet he’s gonna be the father of June’s too…..
@@Masshole4life I hope not. Hadn't Fred had handmaids before and what about the brothel? Why would it have taken so long for he and Serena to get pregnant?
@@appylee9942 It was mentioned in the show that none of the women at Jezebels were capable of getting pregnant (that’s why they aren’t handmaids, too)
And getting pregnant, for some couples, is easier when they aren’t “trying”
When Fred and Serena took a trip (alone) to Canada last season, they slept together. So yes, he’s the father.
I always thought Serena was shot in the ovaries (before the Gilead Republic) so she couldn't physically have a child- that's why to me she always looked so hurt.
its funny her accent is slowly fading out
Is she Australian?
Yes, she is-I did a search.
This TV Show make me think how a socialist society can do to people. An authoritarian communist regimen just like there is in Korea, Cuba, China and Venezuela. It's clear that Christian religion in Gilead is not the point. It's a socialist Society.
What are you talking about? Norway, Sweden, Denmark are some of the socialist countries in the world. Socialism is working great for their countries, isn’t it?
Oh, American perception of socialism is such an utterly sad lack of knowledge!
How is Gilead a socialist society?
@@fatimah941 You need to study socialism, watch and think. Socialists don't think. They just repeat the same think they learned in the brainwashing process and wait for the opinion of their leaders.
@@reacionario2026 You didn't answer my question and you assumed a lack of knowledge on socialism on my part.
