Searching TIME
year into our second lives as indoor cats, Sienna Miller is wearing Uggs. To be clear, the American-born, British-raised actress has always been a champion of the contentious, shearling-lined shoe, but now that a new era of the Frankensteinian boot-slipper has been ushered in, her choice seems especially poignant. Like all of us, Miller has had to adjust her rhythm to an unfamiliar tune, becoming an at-home tutor to her daughter, Marlowe, while still trying to make movies in the middle of a pandemic. And her latest, , which is available on streaming services now, might be her most powerful appearance in recent memory. Directed by Tara Miele, the emotional film analyzes trauma through the deconstruction of a relationship. “It was extremely intense but almost cathartic,” explains Miller, who stars alongside Diego Luna. Bleeding time and space together, the film is an honest portrayal of our distorted memories. Across town, not so far away, Dame Lesley Lawson—known more famously by the nickname that changed the look of fashion, Twiggy—is in slippers, too. Although the ’60s supermodel’s aren’t name-brand, the two women share in the delight of coincidence. There is something to be said for two longtime friends—whose lives often run on parallel tracks in more ways than one—to reconvene online over video chat.
