Cynthia Nixon Looks Back on "ER"
Cynthia Nixon guest starred on "ER" in 2005 as a woman immobilized by a stroke. She appeared physically frozen on screen and delivered much of her dialogue in voiceover.
"Most of the days I shot, I had many hours of makeup, and they would take my eye and my lip and they would glue them down so that they were sagging," she remembers. "I looked a little Frankenstein-y, and every day I would go to the commissary and eat lunch by myself. Every day they would not bat an eye and they would seat me. I would do my best to eat through the little bit of my mouth that there was. Then, when we did all the scenes before she had the stroke and after she recovered, I showed up at the commissary and the maître d' said, 'You're looking very well today, Ms. Nixon.' That was the extent of mentioning the Frankenstein makeup." https://ew.com/role-call-cynthia-nix...-roles-8661174 |
