A Woman Discovers Exactly What She’s Capable of in the Sharp Crime Drama ‘I’m Your Woman’

In crime dramas, the focus is usually on the criminal. The narrative follows their motives and mishaps. Very little attention is paid to the people who absorb the most significant repercussions of this nefarious behavior. Namely, the women often left in the wake of bad men are given very little screen time. We saw this displayed in Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather saga when Michael Corleone’s wife Kay wanted to escape her volatile marriage. Then it was depicted more recently in Martin Scorsese’s The Irishman as Frank Sheeran’s daughter slowly learns his true nature.

She grew up in the Midwest, with its tumultuous weather, and spent her teen years as an athlete. Brosnahan understood early on the importance of using products that wouldn’t irritate her sensitive skin. Though her schedule has only gotten more hectic, the House of Cards alum has stuck with Cetaphil all of these years, and her nearly-poreless complexion is living proof.

On the day that her partnership with Cetaphil was announced, I had the opportunity to sit down and chat with Brosnahan. After bonding over our Midwestern upbringings, and musing over gel nails and charcoal teeth whiteners, we discussed her passion for Cetaphil, the five products she would take with her back to the 1950s and why she’s disgusted by the pesky trope that women aren’t funny.
