Between the ages of 15 and 17 I lived in that theater. I sort of stalked that play, I would say. I think there were four casts in total, and they were all incredibly patient with my fandom. That was the most significant passage of my youth, no pun intended. Was that the production at the Garrick? Who did you see it with?

I think a lot of people love music videos, but I think the business model for them is probably quite complicated at this point. You get away with indulging imagery, and there’s something very melodramatic about them, which I love.

We are discussing Hulu’s adaptation of The Handmaid’s Tale, which, aside from the odd short, marks Minghella’s first project as an actor since Into the Forest (2015). “I find women more interesting to watch on a lot of levels, and I like the idea of being involved with something I would watch.” If you go to my Netflix, the sections that they recommend are ‘Thrillers with a Strong Female Lead,’ ‘Comedies With a Strong Female Lead,'” he continues. “This is going to sound wanky,” says Max Minghella over the phone from Los Angeles, “but I really love stories about women. ![]() SELLERS FOR EXCLUSIVE ARTISTS USING COVERFX AND BUMBLE AND BUMBLE. ![]() MAX MINGHELLA IN LOS ANGELES, FEBRUARY 2017.
