Frances Ha (2013) - 'What I Want' Monologue

 

I chose this monologue to re-enact because it's mature and resonates with an experience I had when I first met my partner who was on stage at our Church and we caught each others eyes for a while and I just knew we had something.

The actress conveys this moment candidly as what she wants. Something secure and solid she can depend upon. She wants emotional security and I believe my version of this monologue below is really authentic to the role though obviously it's not as good as professionals.

I think this one is better than my other self-tapes, I am more natural and relaxed, but I can see why in movies you need a director to get everything from your voice, pitch, body language accurate.
