Sandra was last on Art of the Cut for her last collaboration with Linklater, Hit Man. Before that we spoke about her film Where’d you Go, Bernadette. She was nominated for an ACE Eddie for her work on School of Rock. And she was nominated for an Oscar and won an ACE Eddie for her work on Boyhood. Her other work includes Dazed and Confused, A Scanner Darkly, and Bernie.
