“Phantom Thread” star Vicky Krieps talks about working with Daniel Day-Lewis, who she admits she never really met until after filming was completed.
Vicky Krieps plays Alma in “Phantom Thread,” the muse of Daniel Day-Lewis’ character, Reynolds Woodcock.
Krieps didn’t meet Day-Lewis until their first day of shooting and said he was in character as Woodcock every day of production.
Being in the movie was grueling for Krieps, not because of working across from the demanding Day-Lewis, she said, but because her schedule was six days of shooting a week and her off day consisted of constant dress fittings.
Luxembourg actress Vicky Krieps is a veteran of over 30 movies, but many will see her for the first time as the star of Paul Thomas Anderson’s “Phantom Thread” (currently playing in theaters).
Krieps plays Alma, the muse of renowned 1950s dressmaker Reynolds Woodcock (Daniel Day-Lewis) who figures out an unconventional way to get him away from his work.
