Wonderland.
"I think that I owe a lot of that to you, Ti, and
I think filming X led me up to Pearl. I just felt
a little less confident on the set of X. Sometimes
it can be to your detriment when you love
something so much or you care about something
so much – or you want it to be perfect to such
an extent – it can really freeze you up. I just remember
a handful of times, I would cut a scene in the middle
of shooting and say, ‘No Ti, it's not working, let's
start up again.’ That bothered you and I'm sure
it bothered a lot of people. I remember when
we were in Wellington after we had wrapped X,
we had lunch at a café on Cuba Street and we
had a conversation. You said, ‘Look, Mia, just go
with it. If it's a bad take, it's a bad take. It's not
the end of the world, just relax and have fun
with it!' I really heard that, and I took that on
board. It was at the front of my mind walking
onto the Pearl set. And you were right, it worked
and I just felt more free."
