Lena Dunham<\/a> described some of Adam Driver\u2019s<\/a> alleged violent behavior on the set of Girls<\/em><\/a> in her new memoir, Famesick<\/em>, but also praised him as an artist in an interview with The New York Times<\/em>.<\/p>\n Speaking with The Guardian<\/em><\/a> about her new book, Dunham reflected on her allegation that Driver was rude to her, threw a chair at a wall, punched a hole in his trailer wall, and screamed in her face during the production of Girls<\/em>, which was ultimately his breakthrough role. \u201cAt the time, I didn\u2019t have the skill to \u2026 it never entered my mind to say, \u2018I am your boss, you can\u2019t speak to me this way,\u2019\u201d she explained when pressed to talk further about his alleged behavior. \u201cAnd, at that point in my 20s, I still thought that\u2019s what great male geniuses do: eviscerate you. Which is weird, because I was raised by a male genius who would never do that.\u201d<\/p>\n The topic of his alleged onset behavior also came up during her video interview with The New York Times<\/em>, as seen above, and she appeared to somewhat excuse Driver and praised his acting talent.<\/p>\n \u201cI think that was all of our first job. So, I wouldn’t presume to know how anyone\u2026 I wouldn’t say that Girls<\/em> would be a road map for how anyone behaved anywhere else,\u201d said Dunham, who created and starred in the show, at around the 31-minute mark. \u201cIt was very like \u2018seven strangers sent to live in a house in Seattle. What’s going to happen?\u2019 One thing that’s miraculous is, like, no one dated and no one punched each other. In a way, we did the best you possibly could.\u201d<\/p>\n COMPLEX SHOP:<\/b> Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what’s next. Buy. Collect. Obsess.<\/a><\/p>\n She said that she hoped that the book conveyed that she has a lot of appreciation for Driver, who portrayed the romantic interest of Dunham\u2019s character on the show.<\/p>\n \u201cAdam [Driver] is a meticulous artist, and where he has to go to get there is secondary to me to where he gets,\u201d she continued. \u201cI love watching him. I learned more from him than anyone I’ve ever stood across from on camera. I feel in a way, like, that was the best I’ll ever be at acting. And I don’t know if I could even pull that off again because so much of it came from what was being handed to me.\u201d<\/p>\n Adam Driver has not responded to the allegations.<\/p>\n <\/a> \u2018Star Wars\u2019 Fans Launch Campaign to Voice Displeasure About Disney Rejecting \u2018The Hunt for Ben Solo\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/a> Disney Rejected Steven Soderbergh and Adam Driver\u2019s \u2018Star Wars\u2019 Movie \u2018The Hunt for Ben Solo\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/a> Francis Ford Coppola Issues Harsh Response to Winning \u201cWorst Director\u201d for \u2018Megalopolis\u2019 at Razzies<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n DDG Follows IShowSpeed to Ethiopia With Viral MemeHouse Stream<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n Selena Gomez Calls Herself \u2018Mrs. Blanco\u2019 in New Intimate Photos<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\nRelated News<\/h3>\n
