why i chose diana silvers (cast + playlist)
diana silvers is a budding actress, and has recently starred in films 'Ma' and 'Booksmart', one of which revealed she was gay. and goodness was it wonderful that she was a gay icon from that, seeing as emily blunt always hoped a film would make her a gay icon, and the irony seemed lovely. it wasn't only that. silvers reminded me exactly of an embodied vivian, and that was how i knew. i hope her career grows and she becomes a wonderful actress, she deserves it.
