Mamie has made her first-ever talkshow appearance together with Claire Danes this morning on ‘The Early Show’. Click below for the caps, the complete video can be downloaded in the video archive.
Gummer, 23, plays young Lila Wittenborn, Ann’s best friend, who also loves Harris. On Lila’s wedding day, she grapples with her true feelings. But at the wedding, Ann meets him and is also smitten. Danes, 28, has worked with Gummer’s mother before. She played Streep’s daughter in “The Hours.” It was an experience that Danes said was bordering on the surreal. “Oh, it was a little out of body just because she’s so profoundly gifted and she’s legendary,” Danes said. “I’ve been very influenced by her work. And – but yeah, she’s fun. That’s the big secret about Meryl is that she’s actually a riot, a hoot and holler. So that was great.” Streep has also offered her daughter advice about acting. “Before this project, she just told me simply to do everything with great love,” Gummer said. “And I have tried to do so and to just be as honest as I can be.”
