Eiza González continues to reap international achievements as she is now part of Netflix’s next big premiere, I care a lot, a film with the British Rosamund Pike in which the role of the Mexican falls into politically incorrect.
“Nothing is right in this film, there are many things that are wrong. But I like that mentality of women who do what they want, because so far many roles have always been politically correct “, explains the actress about this production that was purchased by the streaming platform after her presentation in last edition of Toronto Festival.
In the I care a lot, González plays Fran, the partner of an elderly caregiver (Pike) who, far from doing a good job, takes advantage of US dependency law to create a complex plot in which he steals all the goods and money from those he is supposed to be helping.
When they meet a millionaire woman, forced to become addicted, the couple believes that they have reached the perfect target until they realize that the old woman is not as vulnerable or stupid as she seems.
“I watched this character a lot González assures. It’s cool to have a character who is not alien to my values because, as an actress, you can’t judge the character, you have to do the right thing ”.
“I grew up in a country like Mexico, which can be very religious and a little misogynistic, so i’ve always lived with a mentality that a woman can’t do this or if she does she will be a bitch“, He added.
Although the actress likes to be the bad guy in the story, no one is good at a comedy that has a stellar cast that includes Chris Messina (Birds of prey), Peter Dinklage (game of Thronesand Dianne Wiest (Hannah and her sisters).

An acid look at the American system
With this complicated background, I care a lot he creates a vile comedy based on the gray areas of the law, where dubious morality intersects with legal impunity. Nothing the protagonists do is illegal, but it is just as bad.
“The film is about how the American dream is realized in such a way that it is very complex to have a successful career -his points-. These women find holes and holes in the law. “
Interestingly, this sour look at the American system comes from the hand of the Mexican and Rosamund Pike in the role of twisted and elegant Marla.
“We play a gay couple, but very normal, You don’t need 24 sex scenes to think they’re in love, “says Gonzalez.
