On the HBO high finance drama “Industry,” basically everyone serves cruel insults. It’s part of the culture at their bank, Pierpoint. But Myha’la’s character, Harper Stern, goes after friends and enemies with deep, cutting verbal attacks.
Myha’la reads a Modern Love essay by a woman with the opposite problem: Laura Pritchett and her husband have avoided conflict for so long, she writes, that the fights they’re not having are tearing them apart. Myha’la also tells Host Anna Martin about the kind communication style she strives to maintain in her own relationships, and what it’s like when she and her fiancé, Armando Rivera, find themselves in an argument.
The Season 3 finale of “Industry” drops Sunday night on HBO.
Laura Pritchett has written seven novels, including her latest, “Three Keys.”
