![]() And while that might be excused by her not wanting to have that movie influence her performance, the truth is that she hasn’t taken the time to watch it in the year-plus since production ended. While Cristin Milioti showed incredible dedication to her work with her detailed notetaking mentioned above, evidently her preparation didn’t include any cinematic research. Shockingly, this even includes Harold Ramis’ Groundhog Day, which is considered by most to be the grandfather of all time loop films. It was brought up multiple times during the “For Your Consideration” panel that the depth of the Palm Springs star’s film knowledge isn’t really all that deep, and while she apparently has a healthy love for Barry Sonnenfeld’s excellent Addams Family Values, the truth is that there are a lot of movies she hasn’t seen. It’s easy to be under the impression that all actors are cinephiles just because of what they do for a living, but that’s not always true, and Cristin Milioti is a perfect example. Now the question remains if this means that Andy Siara’s thirst for putting dinosaurs in a movie is quenched, or if it means he will perhaps try and write something entirely about dinosaurs as his next project.Ĭristin Milioti Had Not Seen Groundhog Day Before Making Palm Springs, And Still Hasn’t And so there has to be dinosaurs in it.' It's as simple as that. I also just the whole time I was writing this movie I was like, 'If this ever happens, this could be the only movie I ever make. And so they see something that is impossible because they are feeling the impossible – there's dinosaurs. You could look at it like you have two characters who don't believe love, either giving love or feeling love, is possible in that moment. Per Andy Siara, that particular beat came from both the desire to inject some symbolism into the script, as well as just his personal love for the terrible lizards: It’s never explicitly explained where they come from – are they perhaps stuck in the time loop too? – but their inclusion is beautiful and poetic. How The Dinosaurs Ended Up In The Palm Springs Scriptīeing a movie in which characters experience time resetting whenever they go to sleep, Palm Springs obviously operates in abstract and weird concepts, but still recognizable as one of the stranger touches is the pack of dinosaurs that appear in the distance a couple of times. ![]() ![]() It was all work done by Cristin Milioti to ensure that her performance as Sarah was everything it could be, and she most definitely succeeded. ![]() She not only paid close attention to exactly where a particular scene being shot took place in her character’s macro arc, but also filled in gaps for all of the days that we don’t see play out on screen. ![]() The actor has compared her prep work for Palm Springs as being akin to the yarn-and-thumbtack work done by Russell Crowe’s John Nash in A Beautiful Mind. This made it an extra special experience for Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti, but the latter found her way to keep everything organized: maintaining detailed notes in her script. Not only is the story set over a much longer time period than most movies (more on that later), but because the settings are constantly repeating there was efficiency found in grouping disparate sequences together for shooting days. To Keep Track Of The Timeline, Cristin Milioti Kept Hyper-Detailed Notes In Her Scriptīecause the vast majority of films are shot out order, the challenge of an actor adjusting their performance to match their emotional state with where a scene takes place in a narrative is one frequently faced – but Palm Springs still presented an abnormal situation for its stars. ![]()
