The actress reteams with writer-director Martin McDonagh for his latest comic drama, for which Condon will receive the distinguished performance award at the SCAD Savannah Film Festival.
One of my first professional theater jobs was [McDonagh’s playin 2001]. I never went to drama school, and a lot of my training came from that time period, just being around Martin at that young age. There is a confidence that I have when I’m doing his work; when I leave that job, I always feel like I can do anything. Also, the [characters he writes] are quite like me. I’m not going to lie: I’m an Irish girl from the countryside who loves animals.
I’m very close to my brother and Colin’s very close to his sister, so we both had a relationship [to base our characters on]. When you’re with your brother, there’s nothing sexual about you at all. That’s the fun about being with a sibling: It’s very like it used to be when you’re young. I had to take away any element of that [sexualization], yet at the same time, she’s still a young woman, and she’s reading all these books.
I think it is Irish, to be honest with you — Irish women tolerate so much. And they were never really praised or shown the gratitude that they should have been shown. But then that’s what makes them so brilliant: They don’t even need the fuckin’ gratitude. They’re like, as long as the men are fed, and they’re all getting on — because if you look at the history of Ireland, there was always so much fighting, so much alcoholism, and don’t get me started on the Catholic Church.
It’s very progressive, Ireland. I can’t really speak too much on it because, of course, I haven’t lived there in a long time. My family all lives there, my sisters live there, but I don’t want to be mouthing off about a place I don’t even live in anymore. But they did elect a woman president years ago, and now abortion is legal, and all those things that were hindering women, you know, and same-sex marriage. But of course, change is slow. They do love their boys.
