The Big Picture Babes is a movie about friendship, and it’s one that’s powered by a real-life friendship.
Why Team ‘Babes’ Is a Special One: “These Are Real People” Not only are Eden and Dawn best friends in the movie, but Glazer and Buteau have been close friends in real life for decades. Buteau recalled getting to know one another on the stand-up circuit in New York City: “Everybody who knows Michelle loves her. Speaking of going deep in a real and genuine way, she has this magnetism and light that pulls you toward it. Like Close Encounters of the Third Kind and just waddling towards Michelle. She’s just so funny, and I knew that she was the only person who could deliver the comedy and the emotion in this role.”
Pamela Adlon Emphasizes the Importance of Making Choices & Moving Forward While Directing Adlon is a highly experienced director. She’s been behind the lens of 44 episodes of her acclaimed FX series Better Things. But, Babes did mark a directing first for her. It’s her feature directorial debut. Why make that leap with this particular script? “I got the script and I loved it.
“I remember I texted Judd Apatow before I started doing this movie and I said, ‘Question. I'm gonna direct a comedy in New York this summer. Any advice for me?’ And he said, ‘Don't be afraid to be an asshole.’ And I was like, I still don't know that I can do that because I'm a mom, and I've always been a mom, like even before I was an actual mom. And so I was able to bring that to them.
