FULL CIRCLE: Ally Sheedy and Noah Silver Bridge the Gap between New and Established Hollywood

By  | 

DirecTV’s new series, Full Circle by playwright Neil LaBute, depicts a series of dinners at an LA restaurant featuring different diners who end up all being connected. Each episode centers on two characters and the tangled drama of their relationship. One of them returns with another character in the following episode to reveal a whole new aspect of the riveting story. What happens when it all comes full circle?

Robbie Fontaine (Noah Silver) and his mother, Celeste (Ally Sheedy), are not your typical set of mother and son. The pair spend much of their episode switching back and forth between English and French as we slowly uncover what is off about their relationship. It’s a dark and complicated relationship, according to Sheedy, and having some time to work with Silver as a colleague was essential to creating the final relationship between Celeste and Robbie.

NGTV was invited to the set to visit with the cast, and interviewed Ally and Noah about their episode (which we hadn’t seen), the way that the show was shot and created as well as a few moments of looking at different generations of Hollywood.

Despite her better judgment, she enjoys shows about the shallow sides of her home city, but will also find time to watch iZombie, Jane the Virgin, and much more. With a love of history, she also watches anything that is grounded in real life, including Victoria and black-ish. Having worked with children, she also follows shows she knows they watch (reminding her of those days of yore for her in the process). Contact her at roz@nicegirlstv.com.
