Alicia Witt is an artist that I’ve long admired for her work on screen (see Mr. Holland’s Opus, Two Weeks Notice, Justified, Orange is the New Black, and I could go on and on), so it was a pleasure to be able to sit down over Zoom video and chat with the talented singer-songwriter-actress about her lead role in the delightful new rom-com Modern Persuasion.
