“I felt like it took this classic rom-com structure, but then brought in all of these beautiful nuances that just brought it to life,” said Bravo. “And sort of refreshed the genre in a way that I found very exciting.”
“It’s really refreshing,” added Marco Pigossi. “Ciara used this word and I love it. The script is a rom-com but there’s so many elements and many layers. And it’s done in such a smart way in telling that story. I just wanted to be a part of it.”
The big mystery of the movie centers on the doctor, who may or may not be bad news for the psychologist’s daughter.
In real life, is it an easy thing for Bravo and Pigossi to spot narcissists?
“I think if it wasn’t difficult to spot ’em, they wouldn’t be a true narcissist,” said Bravo. “They’re really emotionally smart people.”
Pigossi concurs with Bravo’s assessment. “They’re not easy to identify and of course they don’t know they are,” said Pigossi. They’re fascinating because in the beginning they can reach you. They know everything you need (and) know how to please you. (Narcissists) know what scares you, and they will do everything to show you how much you need them”
During the interview, Bravo and Pigossi talked about why acting is an integral part of their life. The quick chat ends with the actors recommending projects from their resume that they would recommend (Bravo picks Wayne and Pigossi chooses Brilliant Minds).
