Chloe Domont and Phoebe Dynevor on how their ruthlessly brilliant film 'Fair Play' is bound to provoke discourse.
by Netflix for $20 million—I caught up with Domont and Dynevor, who chatted with me over the phone about their ruthlessly brilliant film that’s bound to provoke discourse.
Finance is a male-dominated and hyper-masculine field where women are forced to carve their own space within the boys’ club. What made this landscape the perfect backdrop for an exploration of romance?I picked the finance world for a number of reasons. I like the high stakes, the toxicity of the work environment, and showing how that can feed into the toxicity of relationships and vice versa. Also, I wanted to show the toll it takes on women in that world and what they have to do to survive.
It all came around quite quick. I read the script a couple of months before we started shooting; I thought the writing was so brilliant, and I’d never seen an arc like this in terms of what Emily is battling against. I immediately wanted to meet Chloe and hear her take. She’s brilliant, so I was all in from the get-go—pretty much from the first page.
What conversations did you both have about the gender and power dynamics at play in the film—which are deeply ingrained within the finance world, as well as workplaces in general?The conversations we’ve been having really speak to the intention of the film. I wanted to show how these ingrained gender dynamics still have a hold over us today, especially in a world where the roles are changing faster than people can keep up.
Emily feels like such a departure from any of your previous roles, Phoebe. How did you approach playing the nuances of this character—who’s very fierce, ruthless, and ambitious?To be honest, Emily was a character that I’ve always wanted to play without being totally aware of it. She embodies everything I feel a modern woman is, and in a lot of ways, is like the women I know around me.
