Here Are 12 Things We Learnt On Set With Melanie Lynskey

Melanie's very first film, Heavenly Creatures was with Kate Winslet and directed by Peter Jackson. It was actually her first acting job, as she’d only done school plays before that. 

Based on the infamous Parker-Hulme murder case set in Christchurch, New Zealand, the film includes magical worlds that Melanie and Kate's characters mentally escape to. While a lot was greenscreen, the costumes were not, and Melanie shared that a couple of actors passed out due to the heat and heaviness of the clay man costumes especially.
