Merritt Patterson dishes on ‘Meet Me in the Margins’
Merritt Patterson takes the lead on this film, and while some might feel added pressure bringing a beloved book to life on screen, the actress felt nothing but excitement. “This is the first book adaptation I’ve done with GAC, and having read Melissa Ferguson’s novel before filming, I was eager to see how the story would be brought to the screen,” she shared with Woman’s World. “I was particularly looking forward to seeing some of the interactions between Savannah and William and the locations come to life visually.”
As for the romance films that have inspired her over the years, Patterson shared, “Nora Ephron was such a defining voice in the genre. Her films—When Harry Met Sally, You’ve Got Mail, and Sleepless in Seattle—are timeless. I’ve also always loved Notting Hill, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and Love Actually. There are honestly too many favorites; it’s hard to narrow them down.”
