🎥 Interesting fact: Lars and the Real Girl (2007) — To make the relationship between Lars and his doll, Bianca, feel as authentic as possible, the cast and crew treated the doll like a real person on set. She was given her own dressing room, a dedicated wardrobe team, and was kept “in character” even between takes to help the actors maintain their sincerity. Ryan Gosling took his preparation a step further by actually living in the character’s garage apartment for the first week of production.
