“It’s definitely a different dynamic from the last time we were together," Rachels tells Elle of their new film. "It wasn’t as fun being mean. I love that Woody likes good guys to be good guys and bad guys to be bad guys. Owen seemed to respond really well when I was a really bad guy.”

But typically, Rachel is the romantic one in a relationship.

“I am," she admits. "When Billie Holiday comes on, I can’t help but be transported — and I’m sure it wasn’t as romantic then at all — but that’s the wonderful part of my job: dressing up and walking down the street in New York or Toronto, pretending I’m in the ’40s.”

And Rachel is inspired by her parents' marriage.

“They are Still together and still in love. I’m very blessed that way," she says. "I had a great example of love in front of me, and that’s probably what makes me such a romantic, because I’ve seen it firsthand.”

“You grow up and you assume that everyone is like that, and you quickly realize that they’re not, and then you have those days when you wonder if you’re going to find it for yourself," Rachel explains about relationships. "It’s such a hard thing to find. I think it was more that realization that rocked me.”

Wonder if Rachel has found it in Michael Sheen?
