When that perfect yolk breaks on the pavement, so does her heart.
Do I want to talk about egg sandwiches?
It’s really just an under-discussed topic.

This random thing actually means a lot to me and Margot.
It’s very important business.
That is the be all and the end all!

It’s almost crepe-like and then folded over.
But I’m a big believer in the sunny-side up and the soft egg yolk.
And the egg yolk when you cut it was just so perfect.
That was the one that inspired me.
I love a classic “scrambled egg” egg and cheese.
But the sunny-side up is my true love.
I love that it actually made it into the film and didn’t get cut.
[Laughs] It’s just so funny talking about this so seriously, I really love it!
And we went back to the studio with it.
Because it’s a multi-stranded narrative, each of these characters has their different moments.
Margot and I were sitting there giggling and the studio [execs] were like, “Huh.
The death of the egg sandwich was also super important.
And then they’d have to cook softer egg yolks because it wasn’t bleeding enough.
Because she never gets to take a bite!
She almost does, she almost gets her teeth into it.
But then she doesn’t.
We would do script meetings and the priority in meetings would be feeding.
So I knew from early on that was going to be an issue [laughs].
But we also didn’t know she was going to get to take a bite until pretty late on.
That was a good happy ending that wasn’t always there from the beginning.
And I don’t want to have one here, it’s going to be different.
That’s true, no one makes ‘em like they do in NYC.It’s the bread!
The bread is not the same.
If it’s not on one of those bodega rolls, then it’s not the same thing.
In our one, we’ve got like liquid butter that he brushes on and then toasts it.
I like it when they toast and then slather on the spreadable butter and it melts into the bread.
[Sighs] Oh God, sorry.
I’m thinking about it now and I just [laughs] want it so much.
