In an interview with WIRED, the Oppenheimer star shared a different thought to the movie’s director on the ending scene.She said, “So I have a different version to Ari, the director.” She continued, “The idea is that she’s now gone through a psychotic break. From the moment she chooses, I believe accidentally, Christian, her boyfriend, to get burnt, she keeps on waking up and going back into this, like, psychotic break.” She explained how she remembered her five-year-old self , when looking at the rising flames. “And when that moment at the end happens, where everything is going up in flames, I tried to embody what I was like when I was five on Bonfire Night.” She added, “And just how exciting it was to see flames, and I wanted to revert back to a very, very small and simple life of how simple things made and make children feel. Because in that moment, I presumed that she wasn’t there anymore.”Florence Pugh’s new movie We Live in Time, co-starring Andrew Garfield is now running in theatres since Friday, October 11.
