What Maisie Knew
Moore plays Susanna, a rock star, in this drama directed by Scott McGehee and David Siegel and adapted for the screen by Nancy Doyne and Carroll Cartwright from the 1897 Henry James novel of the same name. Susanna lives with Beale, an art dealer, but as middle age ennui begins setting in, they separate and spark a tug-of-war over their daughter, Maisie. Co-starring Steve Coogan and Alexander Skarsgard. Moore speaks on Susanna:
What’s interesting to me about Susanna as a mother, particularly, is how inconsistent she is. You see how much she loves this child, and how much she would like to be able to parent this child — and then her own inability to do it.
