Saoirse Ronan reacts to viral Graham Norton moment

“But at the same time, it felt very similar to having dinner with a few friends, and I always want to emphasize that it is actually an experience that we have every day. 100 percent,” she continued, adding that she has had similar conversations with Paul himself in the past.

“Paul, being one of my very dear friends, I have had conversations like this with him before and he completely understands and gets it,” Saoirse explained. “I think the fact that there was a moment like that that happened on a show like this Graham Norton…It seems to have had an accessibility that seems to have really gained traction.

“I think it's amazing that it opens up a conversation, and hopefully it allows more and more women to just say, 'Well, actually, let's talk about our experiences,'” she continued.
