"#NataliePortman reflected on her latest role as a #Jewish housewife turned investigative journalist in the 1960s in an interview published on Friday.
In her first TV role, the #Israeli-born actress plays Maddie Schwartz, who tries to solve the disappearances of a Jewish girl and a Black woman in “#TheLadyintheLake,” directed by Alma Har’el, who like Portman is Israeli- #American.
Portman told The Guardian that this was “a character I felt excited to explore in this form — it’s such a playground when you have seven hours.”
She said what drew her to the project was the exploration of the relationship between the Jewish and black communities in #Baltimore as two oppressed minorities."
