Revisiting Carrie Coon - From watching movies at her grandparents to the Gilded Age

<p>It’s been a crazy start to the year, with Raising Cinephiles on an extended hiatus after the Palisades Fire; I want to share one of my favorite episodes from last year in honor of The White Lotus finale airing this week. This episode features the iconic Carrie Coon, whose portrayal of Laurie is lighting up mom group chats across the country. </p><p>Carrie Coon originally joined me, host Jessica Kantor, on Raising Cinephiles to discuss her introduction to cinema at her grandparent's house and a discovery of how her introduction to cinema may have influenced bringing Bertha Russell to life in The Gilded Age. Season two is now streaming on Max. </p><p>I’m unsure when or if I’ll bring this podcast back once I’m fully settled in NYC, but I’d love to know what you think in the poll on substack. </p><p>Originally from Copley, OH, <strong>Carrie Coon </strong>is a Chicago-based theatre, television and film actress. She received a BA in English and Spanish from the University of Mount Union and her MFA in Acting at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. Coon was nominated for a Tony Award in the Best Featured Actress category for her Broadway debut as Honey in the transfer of Steppenwolf Theatre's production of "Edward Albee's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?", directed by Pam MacKinnon. Although Coon did not win in 2013, the production was awarded Best Revival, Best Director (MacKinnon) and Best Actor (Tracy Letts).</p><p><strong>EPISODE CREDITS:</strong>Host, Producer, Editor: Jessica KantorBooker: Noelia Murphy</p><p>Be sure to follow and tag Raising Cinephiles on  <a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/raisingcinephiles">Instagram</a> </p><p></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
