Alison Pill Talks To Rome With Love, HBO’s The Newsroom


She’s only 26 years old, but Alison Pill has already twice done something most actors or actresses her age would punch their mothers to get a chance to do: work with Woody Allen. In the writer-director’s latest film, the unfortunately re-titled To Rome With Love, she plays Haley, an American student who takes an Italian fiancĂ©, Michelangelo (Flavio Parenti), and hosts her parents (Allen and Judy Davis) for a visit to meet him. I had a chance to talk to Pill one-on-one recently, about the movie, her continued love of theater, and her new Aaron Sorkin-scripted HBO series, The Newsroom. The conversation is excerpted over at ShockYa, so click here for the lively read.
