    • Abstract:
      Besides the dark aspects of Anna's character, the lead roles push Byrne and Cannavale, as co-parents themselves, toward an uncanny valley. Glenn Close, Byrne's Damages costar, says Byrne "had something so much more than the kind of acting one was seeing on TV at the time." When Byrne calls Cannavale her "biggest champion" in deciding to do Medea, she's very serious, almost reverent. Byrne describes Cannavale as her "biggest champion" in doing Medea, which she calls "in the canon" of the greatest roles for women. [Extracted from the article]
