I thought that was the sacrifice I&#8217;d have to make,&#8217; she confessed. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I had been teaching in Princeton, and I was in London on the plane about to go back,&#8217; recalled Lisa, who had just finished filming Bloodlands. &#8216;I got what I can only describe as an instinct to get off that plane, so I asked if I could take my bags off, and I left.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/651609452_18571749403044557_1642852008517985586_n.jpg\" alt=\"Pic: Lisa Dwan\/Instagram\" class=\"wp-image-2120213\"  \/>Pic: Lisa Dwan\/Instagram<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Paul [Henninger], who was just a friend at the time, had rang me that morning and asked me how I was getting from JFK to where I was going.
