@thefilmstract: Paul Mescal admitted that he was terrified of playing Connell in Normal People because so much of the character’s pain remained unspoken. What fascinated him was how Connell could feel everything so deeply yet struggle to say even the simplest things. Paul sometimes found himself frustrated with Connell’s silence, wishing he would just express what he felt. But that was the beauty of the role: showing how someone can be falling apart inside while looking completely fine to everyone else. 🎥: Normal People (2020) ————— #normalpeople #paulmescal #daisyedgarjones #tvshow
