The actress explained that it was not about meat, but about a dessert. “Basically, Luca told us we were eating corn syrup. But I know it wasn’t, because I remember the fabulous special effects team and our food managers telling me that it was actually maraschino cherries, dark chocolate and Fruit Roll Up. If that sounds good to you, great. Otherwise it does not matter. But it was a very sweet and tastier mix than anything you can imagine.”

The film hasn’t officially been released in theaters yet, but many have already declared that it’s a masterpiece and that, perhaps, it could win the Oscar for Timothée Chalamet.
