Lily Gladstone radiates such warmth, intelligence and beauty. Watching her do all these press tours has been a highlight of the awards season.

[@peteradaniel]

Lilly Gladstone is so stunning! What a beautiful woman.

[@PaullyMiller]

The moderator created such a comfortable vibe and I like that some of the more standard questions were not employed. Very talented artists and a really dynamic discussion.

[@couturecriminal8330]

Yeah I get what you are saying most try and fail in all honesty👀

[@tiffsaver]

Being a good host is an artform in itself.

[@Anonymous-wk9zg]

Hello Paul, I agree. Do you or anyone else know his full name as I would like to see more of his work? Also, do you work in the industry or?

[@hupotasso4705]

@@Anonymous-wk9zg The interviewer is David Canfield. He works at Vanity Fair magazine and is one of the hosts of the Little Gold Men podcast.

[@RedX845]

At the end I think Margot is very humble and she's just grateful for everything so far and that is why she says that, but I find it still extremely sweet of Emma for pointing out this at 57:45 because Margot I think has indeed accomplished a lot and should be very proud. It just goes to show the kind and thoughtful nature of these wonderful and talented female actors who understand and support each others perspectives and advises throughout the interesting conversation, it is truly beautiful to watch. Thank you for uploading!

[@munict6585]

I swear I was trying to concentrate in the conversation but Jesus Christ, what a gorgeous woman is Lily Gladstone, I couldn’t help but to look at her all the time.

[@haikuhsu]

Same. Every time I see her I'm always muttering under my breath about how stunning she is. And then when she smiles it's like the sun comes out and birds start singing.

[@knsnsy]

came here to write these. she looks stunning here wtf

[@One1Critic]

who's that??

[@DreamyCityGirl]

Emma and Margot need a movie together

[@poett8875]

I agree. They seem like they would have great chemistry.

[@unknownperson251]

they could be sisters

[@curiouscase0075]

I was seeing a girl for a while who in certain light looked like Margot and in other light looked like Emma. I’ve often thought Margot and Emma could play sisters in a movie!

[@AttnDefDis_]

Absolutely! Big fan of both.

[@billtooke6642]

Emma, Margot, and Carey all are platonically in love with Ryan Gosling

[@knsnsy]

that should be Lily’s look to the Oscars she looks stunning couldn’t concentrate on the others

[@mohammedatif4297]

Can't believe Sandra Huller wasn't nominated here. Her performance in anatomy of a fall was PHENOMINAL

[@gabriel-wc2nu]

EMMA STONE WINNER 🤞

[@bumblebee898]

Probably she's not on SAG

[@mattspector11]

Annette is so wise and a treasure to behold

[@somerset8088]

LOVE Lily ❤ Always so heartfelt and perspicacious. I could listen to her for hours.

[@Ernie1978]

Oh man, Carey Mulligan and Margot Robbie are so brilliant and just awesome. All the ladies are! Annette Bening is so well-spoken and interesting. Her last answer right before the end is phenomenal.

[@manantial773]

They are all legends. And what a kind thing for Carey to say to Margot, love their relationship, I know how much Margot loves and respects Carey as an actress, so that was very meaningful to her.

[@JessicaCoss44]

I’m just here for Lily 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

[@samsong24]

I loved all of these performances, but Carey Mulligan particularly stood out for me last year. It was the first time I was truly blown away by Carey after a decade of playing quite subdued roles with tremendous subtlety.

[@ontherocks89]

I also never paid much attention but that all changed when I watched Promising Young Woman. Just wow. She is incredible

[@tingangeles1454]

I am with you! I gauge these 5 great performances with the kind of role they portray, and I thought Carey Mulligan's performance's weight is so much marked, considering she's not the title role. I call her performance a MASTER CLASS in Acting!

[@anish3183]

Lily is incredible.

[@samsong24]

I so agree with what Annette said about the constant deconstruction of the craft. There are just so many media outlets out there now and these actors are ultimately saying the same things again and again in the media circuits and it just grows every year. It is really entertaining for us consumers of film, but it takes away so much of the mystery of the craft. If the actors say that they don't want to do it, it makes them less desirable to producers who depend on them to be their show ponies and to bring in revenue.

[@looney1023]

Lily Gladstone is so great. Like such a tremendous, heartbreaking performance, and yet she's just calm and collected and engaged and dry and a bit sarcastic and self depricating. What an icon!

[@carolynobara8448]

These people are wonderful human beings! It’s great to be in their company in these chaotic times. Thank you all!

[@hinhwood1629]

Emma Stone kind of blew me away in Poor Things. Didn't know she had that in her. Next level stuff.

[@jj-if6it]

I was surprised she did all the nudity/s*x scenes!

[@hopsfd]

Emma is so radiant

[@jamesgray9950]

Lily is such an old soul.

[@rosepratiwi6532]

These are extraordinary women. That's all I have to say.

[@ikbelleib8136]

Annette bening I love her mind

[@carenvisser607]

This was so nice. I really enjoyed this. Anette is so wise. I love Carey Mulligan so much.

[@arontamas5639]

Carey's background is my favourite here! 😍

[@hupotasso4705]

That’s her husband’s home recording studio- where Taylor Swift recorded Cowboy Like Me on Evermore.

[@rental226]

Looks like Mumford and sons home studio

[@mohtalk]

she is married to a Mumford so its probably his home studio

[@MarceloAlves-xn6bu]

Carey is so adorable. I love her ❤.

This video is a gem. I think in the future people will cherish the historical value of things like this.

[@jayel210]

Thank you! You ladies are luminous. Congratulations!

[@elijah.j3288]

M.R might be one of the most talented actresses I’ve ever witnessed in film & television!! Keep up the good work Mulligan & Annette Beneing

[@abdullahjaved0330]

Hearing Anette talk is so much fun

[@weronikazubrzycka6317]

This is such a great conversation between smart ladies. Margot Robbie in I, Tonya was a revelation, her expression in that court scene stayed with me.

[@leightonbate7516]

I can see all 4 of theseyounger actresses still being with us and giving great performances when they are Annette's age.

[@Dad-fu9gt]

That was fantastic. Great discussion.

[@ejsS2]

EMMA ❤️❤️❤️ i love her so much

[@tonihagan6330]

I think Greta directs the way she does (wordy) is because Greta is not only an actor, but a writer as well. She is used to painting visual pictures with words. It sounds as if she is trying to create an image rather than a direction as a director. The fact that she listens with eyes closed to spoken words reinforces her approch to directing as a writer. She is on record for doing that on all her movies thus far.

[@tonihagan6330]

Robbie is a great actress. She did an amazing job in Barbie. Ryan was brilliant as well. Everyone here did amazing work in their respective films.

[@TimeIdle]

Everyone was so very lovely in their own way. :)

[@tanianeira9532]

I don’t know who is more beautiful 😢

I think these five should be in one movie!

OMG imagine that. Wow...

[@AnnatartheDeceiver]

So many great insights of their craft.

[@subhashissarkar2997]

Such a great session to witness. Extremely uplifting ❤️.

[@tiffsaver]

Surprisingly, I think Margot provided some pretty insightful answers. I also thought that "Lenny" should have gotten at least some recognition at this year's Oscars. I think it was a monumental effort by everyone involved.
