Amy Hargreaves - Really Famous Podcast interview - talks Homeland and 13 Reasons Why
Homeland & 13 Reasons Why actress Amy Hargreaves has opinions about the 'glamorizing suicide' controversy surrounding her mega-hit Netflix show AND what's up with Carrie Mathison and her babe Franny. She shares her thoughts with Kara on the Really Famous podcast. They break down both shows and chat about a bounty of things you never knew about Amy -- like why she sometimes ducks into a closet, why you know her voice but aren't sure why, and why she was called into her kids' principal's office. You'll see she's not your typical girl-next-door. The New York native, dual citizen (France & US) and political enthusiast has a wild streak. And after decades acting in oodles of films and TV shows, she's waving her wild flag by dipping her toe into riskier roles.

Amy Hargreaves says:
You'll hear all this on Really Famous.
“I’m curious. I like to have adventures...I think I flirt with danger a little bit.”
“I almost sent an email to Alex Ganza like, ‘Do you need me to shoot some exteriors on the Spanish Steps? I can work that into my schedule!”
“I had some weirdos come after me on social media.”
“I got called into the principal’s office of my kids’ school!”
“I was trying to land in New York and be the perfect mom—and then race back out there and be like 100 percent professional and on it—and I was starting to lose my mind a little bit.”
“I believe in our country and I believe in our constitution and I believe that we’re a country of laws and not a country of men. And I believe that we will persevere and we’ll get through all this, but I’m concerned. I’m concerned.”
“I’m the youngest of five, a big loud irish catholic family with a lot going on...We had to crack some good jokes at the dinner table to get attention.”
“I’m not great with confrontation. Sometimes I turn into a big chicken.”
“I feel like a lot of the way I’ve behaved in my life, up until kind of recently, has been trying to get my parents’ approval. I feel like I maybe never quite got it, and so I was chasing after it for a long time.”
