Hayley Atwell on playing Peggy Carter - for Mara

My question is to Hayley: I was wondering how it feels to play such a strong female character in a comic universe full of strong male heroes. (x)

Oh shit. Sally Field kinda went off here. “The garment you knit for yourself as a child.” Might have to read her memoir now.

So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light Cause oh they gave me such a fright And I will hold on with all of my might Just promise me that we’ll be alright But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view And we’ll live a long life

Many thanks to repmet for advice on this! :)

The last time the US Men's National Team won a knockout game in the World Cup was 24 years ago--exactly half my life ago.

2002: I'm living in Chicago, working at Booklist Magazine. I've just begun to recover from what used to be called a nervous breakdown. I was out of the hospital, living on my own in a furnished studio apartment that my parents had found. I only had one bill to pay every month--it included my phone (landline), utilities, and rent.

I was paying that bill. I was beginning to feel for the first time like I might be able to survive adulthood--despite the heartbreak and my overall low level of functioning.

I woke up at 2 or 3 AM to watch the World Cup each day. I've loved the World Cup ever since 1994, when my dad took me to a game the first time the tournament was hosted by the U.S. I remember watching alone in the middle of the night as we beat Mexico to make the quarterfinals. I was ecstatic. That team wasn't particularly fun to watch, but we ground out results.

Today, 24 years later, the USMNT won a knockout game again, and this team IS fun to watch. They play with speed and heart.

My life is very different. I have more than one bill each month. My house has more than one room. I have a spouse and kids and work I love. The days now can be very hard, too, but in a different way.

The joy I feel tonight is almost identical to the joy I felt 24 years ago, except I am no longer alone in it. After all, community is one thing sports can bring you. But also, football lets me feel pure and simple emotion in a world where nothing is pure or simple. And today, that pure and simple feeling is gratitude.

I watched the World Cup in earnest for the first time in 2010. I was 29, and I had spent most of my 20s in what I later realized was crippling depression. But I'd been enjoying that World Cup so much. I still remember where I was when I thought to myself, "I love this! I hope I'm alive in 2014 for the next one!" And then I realized, I just hoped to be alive! I realized there was a light at the end of the tunnel. I've been making my way towards it ever since, and I'll always be thankful to the World Cup for that.
