“Teardrop” director Markell on Gummer

Posted December 12, 2009 by Frederik

CinemaBlend has recently interviewed director Jodie Markell for the December 30 release of “The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond” and has asked her about casting Mamie.

When I first saw her I did not know that she was Meryl Streep’s daughter and I kept saying this is such a great young actress and she’s got so much personality on stage. She was in a play that was directed by my friend, Michael Greif, and I was like, ‘God. Where did Michael find this girl?’ And then halfway through I was like ‘She kind of reminds me of, oddly enough, Meryl Streep.’ And then I found out she was Meryl Streep’s daughter. I really did not come to her because she was Meryl Streep’s daughter, I actually was taken by her talent. And she’s just so perfect Julie, who’s the girl next door but she’s got a wild streak underneath and a great sense of humor.
