\n\tThis week\u2019s Take Ten guest is Dakota Fanning. In this episode we chat about her love for Australian TimTam cookies, Tom Cruise\u2019s thanksgiving pie collection and what De Niro taught her about being a scene partner.<\/p>\n
\n\tCurrently starring in Peacock series All Her Fault based on Andrea Mara\u2019s novel, Fanning plays Jenny, a mom who is horrified when a child at her son\u2019s school is kidnapped. When Jenny befriends the missing boy\u2019s mom, Marissa (Sarah Snook), they join together to unravel the mystery and fix their own lives. <\/p>\n
\n\tDuring this Take Ten chat, Fanning takes a trip down memory lane recalling all the props she\u2019s kept from her long career that began in childhood. \u201cI have the Creasy bear from Man on Fire,\u201d she says. \u201cThey gave that to me at the end. From I Am Sam, I have this little shirt that I wore in a lot of the scenes. I have the yellow dress that I wore as Fern in Charlotte\u2019s Web, in the fair scene. I have a lot of good, important stuff. That tutu from Uptown Girls. I don\u2019t know if I have that. It could be in storage. I wish I had that, if I don\u2019t, but I might.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tShe also takes a fond look back on a very special holiday experience she had while shooting the 2005 movie War of the Worlds with Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise. <\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cI remember we were going away for the Thanksgiving break,\u201d Fanning says. \u201cIt was like, \u2018That\u2019s a wrap. Have a great Thanksgiving, everyone.\u2019 And then these huge doors opened to another studio, and there were just 2000 pies in this empty soundstage. Just tables and tables of pies that Steven and Tom had brought in for the crew for a little Thanksgiving send-off. And I was like, \u2018Wow, it\u2019s a lot of pies!’\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tThe kind gesture made a big impression on her. \u201cIt set me up to realize how important doing special things for the crew that you\u2019re working with is, and how far that goes, and to show appreciation and to celebrate the work that people are doing.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tAs for her most memorable co-star though, Fanning finds it impossible to pick just one. Although that could change very soon. \u201cIf you ask me this in a year, it\u2019ll probably be my sister. We\u2019re doing a movie together, so she\u2019ll probably end up being my most memorable co star, but we haven\u2019t done it yet.\u201d That movie in which the Fanning sisters will co-star and also co-produce is The Nightingale, adapted from Kristin Hannah\u2019s novel.<\/p>\n
\n\tBut in the meantime, while Fanning is mulling over those memorable co-stars, she points out, \u201cWhen I was on Charlotte\u2019s Web, I worked with a lot of pigs and cows and sheep and geese. That was memorable.\u201d<\/p>\n
