He said there was a “clear” chemistry between them and, after an incident in her hotel room, they started having sex “all the time.”
Page wrote: “I was stunned the moment I saw Olivia Thirlby. We were standing in her hotel room. Billie Holiday stars. She was about to start making lunch when she suddenly looked He looked at me and said bluntly, “I'm really attracted to you. ”
“'Ugh, I'm attracted to you, too.' We started sucking face from that point on. That's when… we started having sex all the time: her hotel room, in the trailer where we worked, and once in a restaurant In a small private room. What were we thinking?
“We thought we were subtle. Being close to Olivia helped me remove my shame. I didn't see a glimmer in her eyes, and I wanted that—to stop feeling miserable about who I was.
“Ironically, playing a pregnant teenager was the first time I felt a modicum of autonomy on set. I was wearing a prosthetic belly, but it wasn't overly feminine. For me, Juno Symbolizing all that is possible, the space beyond binary. “
