Focus Features "There's something I have in common with the lead character in that I'm afflicted with nostalgia for a decade I didn't live in," Wright told Empire in 2019. "You think about '60s London—what would that be like? And the reality of the decade is maybe not what she imagines. It has an element of 'be careful what you wish for.'"
