| Did we see this before? Quote: |
Alexis Bledel (Gilmore Girls, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants) and Northwestern 2004 graduate and Evanston native Zach Gilford (Friday Night Lights) star in Post Grad, a film about a college graduate’s “pre-life crisis.”
| Quote: Alexis, you said you wanted to make your character Ryden different from your TV character in Gilmore Girls. What are the differences between Rory and Ryden?
AB: Well, as the years went by on Gilmore Girls, I noticed that Rory was kind of like an idealized product of the show’s imagination because she was really perfect in a lot of ways, which started to annoy me a bit, but you have to keep playing the character. But Ryden -– I think she’s much more relatable in a lot of ways and this character’s story picks up in the same stage of life where Rory left off, graduating from college. So for anyone who likes the show, its kind of -– it’s a continuation in a way, but she’s a completely different girl because she makes a lot of mistakes. She has a very typical college experience. She’s kind of an average girl, and I can relate much more to her.
