Elisabeth Moss: This ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ finale moment ‘gives me chills’

Red gowns. Solid white covers. The heads are determined. If there is one picture Holo “The Story of Mids” The fans leave with the completion of six season this week. This is: from women in American anti -dystopian called Gilead, developing from unknown sexual slaves to rebels and warriors, and sometimes survivors.
But for the creator of “Al -Khadamat” Bruce Miller and the star Elizabeth Moss, who also directed several episodes in the last season, the series was not, based on the 1985 Margaret Atwood book, about what women are wear. It was about women inside The uniform coded in colors.
“June started as an ordinary person, a mother, and a wife,” says Moss, whose other long -term roles include “The West Wing” and “MAN MEN”. She won the Emmy Award to play the “Handmaid’s” title in 2017, in the same year as the show was awarded the first broadcasting series of broadcasting.
“then [June] “I had to close and became something I don’t think she was not proud of it. But I feel that she comes out of that to a place for the real heroism, where she is able to be by herself, be generous, tolerance, inspiration for others, driving – but also at risk, and asking questions, you don’t know everything.”

Miller, who retracted the tasks of the last season, wanted Erik Tosman and Yahaleen Zhang, in particular, to guarantee that as a man, he was telling a female story from the female’s point of view-in the book room and on the camera.
“I am aware of the fact that I am a boy, and who I think I am?” He says, adding that winning the Emmy Award has strengthened his confidence in being a man who tells a story about women’s rights. (The series includes 15 total EMMYS.) “Certainly, when you win the Emmy Award, it helps you feel a little lower penis you have one penis at the maximum.”
Knowing that Miller says that he focuses on the story in June and Moses alike, where he set the camera corners to focus on her point of view-but he decreased to the level of the eye that corresponds to the actress’s height of 5 feet and 3. “I want to see the world not only through the eyes of June – but also Lizi’s eyes, as much as they are able to show these things.”
Meanwhile, Moss used roles as a product and executive director to focus on the appearance of the show and how June appeared on the camera. Often, she showed outdating anger or dark intention, staring from under the eyebrows with a reduced chin, something that Moss says is uploaded from Stanley Kubrick films. “This is” Clockwork Orange “, she says.” I am definitely not the first person to do this appearance. “

But she may be one of the very few actresses she transmits on the screen. “Certainly, women do not do anything [on camera]She says.Women are not angry. [June] Use her anger and brake on many points during the show – and by the last season, you know when to do so and when you do not. “
The journey began in June, Elizabeth and “maids” at an uncomfortable balanced time in American policy: amid a series of women who were subject to the state’s organization to their physical independence, the real worlds in the world were successfully returning the rights of reproductive women. In 2018, the demonstrators began to appear in the events in the real world in the gowns of the maid, red and white covers, putting the width in the unexpected spotlight.
Moss says about this type of response, but he indicates that “art has an effect.” “I don’t think any of us has necessarily set out, when you make a TV program, to [make a political statement]Because this is the wrong way to do this. You tell the story of this woman. … She has always been “the story of maids”, her story.
This is one of the reasons that make the series after six seasons chosen to end as it did: with June’s return to the house where everything began, and her notes began – “a maid’s story”. When Miller put this scenario the last episode, Moss says he made her cry.
“I love the idea that in the end when you start telling the story that is the book, and the circular nature that gives me chills,” she says. “The fact that she realizes that she must tell her because she was not. everyone bad.”
But the end is also doing one thing: it shows how little is really resolved. The daughter of June Hannah is still besieged in Gilead, for example. The fans of the series know that the procedure will happen after 15 years when “The Frathants” begins, based on the 2019 supplement for ATWOOD and now in production, in broadcasting. (Moss will not say if you will get a veil.)
This is it and End – just no the the end. Now, she leaves the story, still focuses on the woman who survived the hood and slaughter and not about the motifs of her enslavement. “For me, the end is perfect,” Moss says. “I also don’t feel the end. The war is not over. June’s journey is not over.”
