Lily Tomlin echoed those sentiments. “It's about female friendship and how that sustains them for years and years,” said Tomlin.
Rita Moreno, who treasures her close friendships, expressed how she became close with her female castmates. “They're so professional. They're very funny. They're smart. They're wise. They are everything a girlfriend should be,” she said. “And we have become friends. That's pretty fabulous.”
