Michelle Pfeiffer sat down for an interview this week and revealed something about filming The Madison in Montana that nobody expected to hear from one of Hollywood’s most elegant icons — that there were no bathrooms on set and almost nowhere had air conditioning.
The same woman who said she wants whatever time she has left to be spent meaningfully — who stepped back from Hollywood to be a grandmother and then came back anyway because the right roles kept finding her — spent months in the Montana wilderness without modern conveniences and came out the other side with two acclaimed performances, a Gotham Legend Tribute and a Vanguard Award. When she accepted that award she looked out at the audience and asked “am I a vanguard, really?” — and the applause that followed answered that question for her.
