 Though McAdams couldn’t relate to Kay in terms of her relationships, she used Kay’s hair, makeup and clothing as ways of getting into character, and she also found herself watching classic films from that time period for inspiration. “I certainly looked for inspiration in watching old films and Ira pointed out Kim Novak to me so I watched some of her stuff,” she says. “I’ve always loved the 40’s so I paid particular attention to that era anyway. I didn’t base it on anyone in particular but the clothes were all originals from the 40’s; nothing was recreated.

It’s been nice to get back into it though.” The upcoming The Time Traveler’s Wife, based on the best-selling novel by Audrey Niffenegger and co-starring Eric Bana, wrapped in November. It follows the unconventional romance of a man with the ability to jump through time and the woman he loves. “It definitely follows the relationship and some characters had to fall away,” she says. “We just couldn’t do the whole 500 page book. There were so many things I was so sad. I’d come to work and say, ‘What about this? And how about this chapter? And what about this passage?’ And [the director] would be like we can’t cram everything in. So we really focused on the love story itself, from both of our points of view, just like the book. And there’s definitely time travel involved.” Sounds like it's ... |
