As she gained stardom, she was asked to do a cover for Life mag. To that point, she wasn’t happy with her own work. You can see it in her eyes. Disappointment has a weight to drag the soul down, even amidst the greatest accolades. This picture, intended to celebrate an actress who was seemingly achieving everything she could hope for, is profoundly sad to me.<br/></p>https://www.jrhighdropout.com/post/171761235618https://www.jrhighdropout.com/post/171761235618Sun, 11 Mar 2018 11:34:23 -0400movies<img src="https://64.media.tumblr.com/d2bafe5e789a6872fbdd37ba998e2707/tumblr_p56teeznhU1rgko4eo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Next stop: Vegas!
