Women of 'Mad Men' talk about Don, story rumors and the end →

“The show is titled ‘Mad Men,’ but without these women, the guys would be just a bunch of desperate masturbators in great suits.”
So said Holly Hunter, introducing the lead actresses of the acclaimed AMC drama last week at the nonprofit Women in Film awards. And, really, it’s hard to argue. While the show’s men, most notably, the self-loathing Don Draper, keep repeating sins from the past, the women have evolved and adapted through the show’s six seasons.First, Holly Hunter is a national treasure, without question. Second, the title of this interview is a bit misleading because the women actually spend most of the time talking about their own characters, not Don. Third, despite the questionable title, this a great interview. I especially love Christina Hendricks not knowing about the Internet conspiracy theories surrounding the show this season, the discussion about Betty, and Kiernan Shipka’s insights on Sally.
“What’s so hard about that first sentence is that you’re stuck with it. Everything else is going to flow out of that sentence. And by the time you’ve laid down the first two sentences, your options are all gone.”

- Fran: So what's it like then, you know fags and booze?
- Bernard: Well to be honest, after years of smoking and drinking you do sometimes look at yourself and think....
- Fran: Yup
- Bernard: You sometimes just, between the first cigarette with coffee in the morning to that 400th glass of corner shop piss at 3am, you do sometimes look at yourself and think....
- Fran: Yep
- Bernard: This is fantastic, I'm in heaven
