But I can't wrap my head around it—and I really don't feel like digging through Google for an answer... why on earth is Travolta playing the wife?
The Hollywood Reporter recently covered Travolta's take on the matter, where he responded:
"I think the whole world is just so feminine that exploring that femininity through a role like this was a way for me to see if that fact holds true. It was truly wonderful feeling what it's like to be a woman; everything that comes with it. I’ll even admit—rather lazily—that at one point I used to head home from the set dressed in women's clothing and fully made up. I absolutely loved this metamorphosis of mine and I simply feel great. A dear colleague and friend once told me how important it is to be able to step out of the roles an actor plays, but I simply cannot step out of this first female role of mine. I just feel fantastic as a woman. For me, this is a completely new experience and I have to admit I don't plan on returning to my masculine side anytime soon. This is like a mysterious discovery of my own self. I am just happy now. I hope this won't change my professional foundations, and that all my friends, colleagues, and above all my family, will be understanding of this discovery of mine. I even hope for an Oscar nomination in the Best Supporting Actress category, because that would be the ultimate proof and foundation to further solidify my newly formed female ego, which is truly strong, proud, and sensitive." - I have the full interview somewhere... It's quite fascinating reading... If only I could remember where I put it...
