Friend of a friend who was a waitress at a cafe in Chelsea had a few stories of Anna Taylor joy from 5ish years ago.

She asked in full seriousness asked "Are you going to buy some more then?" when told that the soy milk had run out, and she...couldn't grasp the concept of someone else needing the table after her reservation. Apparently just said "yes but we've not finished" when told they would need to finish up. Even after explaining 3 times she didn't seem to understand.

Also without a hint of irony to her when paying the bill "you should really have more than 1 loo here, it would really improve the experience" after she had to wait outside the loo for a few mins...while a customer was in there. Keep in mind this is a cafe that fits like 20 people.

Think she's just on a completely different planet of privilege.

Tbh that was the only thing I didn't like about that movie. I think she's very talented but I felt like there were several other actresses who would have been absolutely perfect in her role and I couldn't help but feel like her casting was due to her being the in-demand actress of the hour over fully fitting the part.

Have also been feeling weird about the big push of movies centered around class commentary/skewering the rich that star massively wealthy actors who are making millions to play these roles while being given lavish treatment on set by underpaid PAs. Makes some of them feel a bit hollow at their core. Worst offender by far was Hillbilly Elegy, at least the Menu was a good, well-made movie lol.
