Movies News Talk
Saoirse Ronan's appearance on The Graham Norton Show sparked a huge conversation about women's safety, all thanks to a quick but powerful comment. The clip, featuring Paul Mescal, Eddie Redmayne, and Denzel Washington alongside Ronan, went totally viral! Saoirse later said the reaction has been "wild".
The conversation started with Eddie Redmayne explaining a self-defense tactic for a new movie role where some character of theirs who used their mobile phones! in fending-off some attackers and during this clip it showed him explaining exactly his rationale with co-guests on this popular talk-show program starring Norton but only now more, with more people having this specific moment and rather than original live showing too during its premiering day that instead viewers discovered those similar talking points later themselves as that interview gained online views across many distinct hosting platforms and feeds eventually with it becoming "viral" eventually only over enough additional hours even too! Despite showing original on prime-time BBC broadcasting within Ireland which shows also its strange timing as initially probably even noticed initially either during that earlier "LIVE TV," airing too even!.
It all started during The Graham Norton Show which showed both Mescal alongside Denzel Washington and their special guest Ronan who at time wasn’t primarily doing promotional tours herself for some specific work as theirs in entertainment or related spaces too either rather only coincidentally both appeared at a timing too on set as their appearance was intended mainly towards a talk alongside them but not explicitly focused for that particular program since as this BBC prime-time schedule only intended her as “additional guest there to participate in some panel discussion along host Mr. Graham” during one upcoming weekly program.
Eddie Redmayne brought up something related “phone usage as part self-defense,” where its suggested hitting an “assailant using a mobile phones butt to disarm”. During discussion he described also learning more around self defense where during this Eddie specifically also brought his phone out too amongst group too but Mescal wasn’t initially aware those intents also because he was unaware if he or other people truly “think or respond such during an extremely rapid and time-constrained period which such events involve as such.” Though the core argument around those points regarding women's safety too that arose amidst Saoirse's viral clips as well also highlight very distinct parts too, regarding personal safety for women rather than specifically also around mobile phone usage generally.
Mescal questioned how practical using a phone as a weapon would actually be. Ronan jumped in saying, "That's what girls have to think about all the time." The audience erupted in applause, and the clip quickly gained popularity among the internet’s most talked about media snippets within a single additional overnight evening day-span which illustrates also how quickly that sort popularity can change.
Ronan mentioned speaking with someone recently, a lady friend there in “a dinner group whose spouse inquired afterward her friends fake calling habit from whom none ever really thought how obvious that becomes unless you know those signs in real time also as those others not needing consider much other rather “more immediately pertinent information also from own personal lived experience also that only truly resonates “within if truly your own lived too from that,” during a situation which required making those decisions instead,” even rather.
Ronan emphasized its not "her speaking up!” so much that got “attention”. But that enough society-level interest exists generally in already hearing something they resonate from and when they feel themselves being represented correctly there are times where the media takes such clips that feel already relevant generally but where no-one can express necessarily as one collective rather that one clip then “encapsulates perfectly which becomes highly sharable across even global discussions despite coming from just small moment captured either across one particular camera” as many saw and found in Saoirse’s BBC program now with Norton also..
Ronan's upcoming film, Blitz, a WWII drama, oddly reflects some “parallel message also!. Despite dealing more around motherhood and times during WW2 and related conflict in Europe, which for UK especially represented uniquely fearful moments too across several geographic parts now affected due German war involvement. Even with all the obvious “technological and generational shifts. In it, she shows herself in acting her new character Rita where similar “defense mindset from women in this Ronan acted part” must also plan survival.
She recounted an interesting anecdote later, a person in a conversation during dinner asked whether her husband knew how she and others fake telephone conversation! During these events its intended that perceived threat would then go “less forceful,” due someone knowing of their specific location during some walk, travel and other times out alone rather.
This small chat on The Graham Norton Show amongst celebrities unexpectedly prompted bigger global societal discussions rather which illustrates also both power plus how unpredictable discussions arise online despite starting “so random originally also rather.” Whether intentional nor nor there is always someone there too eventually, noticing rather than solely always through "mass intentional-push" from every post being shared too either instead there appears even this natural spreading and across totally unique networks either too. Its quite remarkable even, to behold really.
