DP/30: Jena Malone, Lorelei

She has been a famous actress since Bastard Out Of Carolina in 1996, when she was just 12. With a few years off for good behavior, she has worked consistently and at a high level ever since. Her latest, Lorelei, is another turn for her work, as her real-life parenting and a remarkable, informed on-screen performance meet. She took some time to chat with David Poland about her work on this film, her career, and her still unquenchable passions. Shot by Zoom, August 2021 Subscribe to DP/30 for more interviews:
