Los Angeles, March 19 – Hollywood actress Michelle Pfeiffer has learned some valuable lessons through experiencing loss in her life.
The 67-year-old actress has "suffered the loss of someone who was significant" to her multiple times, and Michelle admits that these experiences have taught her important lessons, according to ‘Female First UK’.
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, the actress said, "For a brief period, all that matters is connection with other human beings. I remember feeling this way a couple of times in my life when I lost someone who was important to me”.
She continued, "I remember thinking, 'Oh my God, how can I hold on to this? It felt so good and so real and authentic and safe. And in a strange way, it was relaxing, because I wasn't just trying to make things happen. You just stopped all that”.
Michelle also said that it can be difficult to think clearly during a period of heartbreak.
The actress, who was married to actor Peter Horton between 1981 and 1988, said, "When you've grown up with someone and you're so intertwined, after a while, you don't even really know where you end and the other person begins. How do you even begin to imagine your life without them and rebuild when everything you knew has fallen apart?".
Meanwhile, Michelle recently revealed that she agreed to star in "The Madison" without reading the script. The actress took a "leap of faith" to join the cast because of creator Taylor Sheridan's previous involvement in successful series, such as Yellowstone and Tulsa King.
Michelle told ‘Variety’, "Taylor reached out to me and said he had an idea and would like to meet me. So I went to Texas, I went to his ranch and had a wonderful evening meeting people”.
“He talked to me about the character's arc and the concept of the show, and it was very clearly laid out. I said, 'Okay, when could I read something?' He said, 'Well, I'd like to know who I'm writing for before I start writing. So after you commit’”, she added.
