How will it surprise us?
I was basically correct: This movie did confuse me, and Debicki,tall icon, delivered.
So, just how tall is Elizabeth Debicki inTenet?
Let me tell you: tall!
The inseam of her pencil skirts are longer than my full-size bed.
Her neck is positively prehistoric, and by that I meanLand Before Timelong.
Elizabeth Debicki is tall standing outside of her childs prep school.
She is tall sitting down at dinner.
She is tall, again seated, steering a catamaran.
She is tall laying down in bed reading a book.
She is tall hiding a gun under a couch cushion.
She is tall hiding another gun in a jewelry box.
I could go on.
She has narrowly escaped an attempt on her tall, precious life, but oh no!
This isntThe Prestige, there is no magic trick.
She is just that tall.
A lot of movies work around Debickis height (like inThe Man from U.N.C.L.E.
), or make it something otherworldly (like inGuardians of the Galaxy 2).
I think my height is something …
In one scene, herWidowsdirector Steve McQueen gently reminded her not to slouch.
I remember being really struck by it, because I hadnt realized I was doing it.
Tenetdoes not give Debickis character a lot to work with, but it does let her stand up straight.
I applaud all 74 inches of Elizabeth Debicki for their bravery and strength.
Tall, she is; icon, she also is.
This is the body insecurity I am proudest of, and I thankTenetfor revealing thisshort wait for it coming.
