One To Watch: Why Davika Hoorne Left Her “Comfort Zone” To Play A Haunted Hoover In ‘A Useful Ghost’
“I’ve never been a vacuum cleaner before… it’s very out of my comfort zone,” says Thai model and actress Davika Hoorne on her role in Ratchapoom Boonbunchachoke’s Cannes Critics’ Week title A Useful Ghost. She plays a woman who dies of dust pollution and then returns as a ghost in the form of a vacuum cleaner, determined to save her family from a similar fate.
“I had to get to know the vacuum cleaner, my partner,” says Hoorne, adding she put herself in the hands of the director to pull off the performance. “His picture was very clear. There was a bit of improv but mostly it was what he wanted.”
