Tony-winning actress, LauraBenanti, chatted with us all about her role in amyschumer's new hulu series LifeandBeth. lifeandbethhulu (🖊jltet14)

Amy and I had a lot of conversations about it. To me, Jane is a woman who really just wants to be loved and does not love herself. She doesn’t know how, and nobody taught her, so she can’t teach her daughters. She relies on external validation of mostly men to make her feel like she’s worthy of being a person. That is a really hard way to live. And I think we see that reflected in almost everything she’s saying.

It’s hard for us to understand our parents because we’re children and we look at them simply as people [who are] here just for us. They’re not humans, they’re parents. What I think Amy’s done so brilliantly is she shows everyone as a human. There aren’t good guys and bad guys. Good people do bad things, and challenging people can be loving — that’s real life. That’s what I love about all of Amy’s work.

SK: Amy wears a lot of hats in this series — writing, acting, producing. What was your collaborative relationship like?Amy is one of the most collaborative people I’ve ever met. She is kind, she’s loving, she’s direct. She has a remarkable ability to make you feel like something was your idea, which is how we all work best, I think. It gives you a sense of ownership. There’s no shaming. She comes from a space of love.
