Synopsis: A thirtysomething single mother whose boundless potential was squandered through a series of failed relationships and a misguided effort to help her younger sister succeed in life finds the fruits of her labors finally coming together in director Christine Jeffs’ dark family comedy. Back in high school, the future looked pretty bright for Rose Lorkowski (Amy Adams); not only was she the cheerleading captain, but she was also dating the star quarterback. Flash forward a little over a decade, and Rose is working overtime in hopes of getting her son into a better school. Her sister, Norah (Emily Blunt), is still living at home with their father, Joe (Alan Arkin), a failed salesman whose penchant for jumping into get-rich-quick schemes has left the family without a financial net to fall back on. Rose may be down, but she certainly isn’t out, and when she hatches a plan to launch a crime-scene cleanup business, the money starts rolling in. Sure, cleaning up murder scenes and suicide sites may not be the most glamorous job in the world, but death is a fairly profitable business, and as the phone keeps ringing, Rose and Norah finally begin to experience the closeness of sisterhood that has eluded them all these years while also providing their family with true security.

The 27-year-old British actress seems impervious to the cultish ways of Hollywood, as she literally saddled up on a horse while doing an interview with Harper’s Bazaar UK in the Hollywood Hills. She dished on married life, her red carpet style and the politics of the industry.

“The business is all about gush and hype. You never have a bad meeting in L.A. They always say, ‘You’re amazing, you’re so funny,’” she said. “You always walk out going, ‘I nailed that part,’ but they’re probably saying behind your back, ‘She’s definitely not right…’”
