Lopez, Constance Wu, Keke Palmer, and Lili Reinhart play characters based on real women, so the pressure was on to get the tone just right. “For me, writing has always been an exercise in empathy,” Scafaria says, on the phone from Los Angeles. “So that was my approach to it, to try to read between the lines of what Jessica wrote.”
“I was very adamant about it being and feeling like the period piece that it was, even though it was obviously very recent history,” Scafaria says. The characters’ clothing and makeup reflect the wildly changing times, as the film progresses from plentiful 2007 through the crippling 2008 financial crisis and beyond. As their lives become harder and their working conditions harsher, so does their makeup – lip liner is lacquered on thicker, eye shadow becomes darker.
Scafaria knew very early on that she had to have Lopez in the film. “The character of Ramona fits her like a glove, but kind of like a glove she’s never really put on before.” When we first see Ramona she’s performing a show-stopping routine to Fiona Apple’s “Criminal,” and afterwards she sprawls on the roof of the club to smoke a cigarette. She’s shrouded in a voluminous chinchilla coat that looks like it could have been plucked straight from one of her music videos.
