I ♥ America (Ferrera)
2020
In true comedic fashion, Amy's salary is accidentally revealed to the entire store, her friends and former peers hand out particularly sharp barbs about her relative wealth, and then we learn that the warehouse manager makes far more (because of a clerical error). [...]Amy's career opportunity is only brought to fruition through a series of flukes that include running down the regional manager on a golf course with a golf cart and then blackmailing her for her cocaine habit. The sight of what looks like a SWAT team chasing Amy and Mateo (navigated via headset and Dina's directions from the security cameras) in the store is an uncomfortable combination of tragedy and farce, highlighting the militarized terrorism directed at ordinary working-class people of color.

America Ferrera

Here, Ferrera unpacks life in Barbie Land. Because [Culmone] was a real-life, cool, progressive, smart woman, I feit like I could better understand how Gloria-as an adult woman, mother, wife, employee-could still find so much value and escape in [the dolls]. Greta and I spent months talking about the ideas of the monologue. Which role shaped you most as an actor? What performance should every actor see and why? There was so much freedom and permission and humor and gravitas and fluidity-how she could go from a monster-type character into a vulnerable, childlike victim. [...]her interpretation of it sparked something in me. What advice would you give your younger self?
