Actress Julia Roberts returned to the Cannes Film Festival this year not to promote her work but as a “godmother,” presenting the Trophée Chopard prize celebrating emerging on-screen talent. In an interview with this year’s recipients, Jack Lowden and Sheila Atim, Roberts discussed her new limited television series Gaslit and why her character Martha Mitchell was so easily erased from history because of her gender.
“I think because she was female, so they just sort of deleted her. I mean, Nixon despised her. And he even said if it hadn’t been for Martha Mitchell, there would’ve been no Watergate, Roberts told Variety.
