Observations:
- In the video you notice that Cara uses a lot of sarcasm, perhaps to try to be funny, which maybe the interviewer's don't understand.
- There is obviously a nationality barrier because the interviewee is English and the interviewer's are American. This means that there is a difference in what they find humorous and what attitudes to language are acceptable.
- Cara has probably had a long day of press interviews which could be why she was using phatic talk and getting agitated about questions which she didn't find appropriate. Her paralinguistic features such as her facial expressions and fidgeting can show her discomfort toward the questions.
- Cara behaves quite professionally throughout by responding calmly to digs about her being irritated and moody. She uses a lot of non-fluency features such as fillers and hesitations which maybe due to controversy coming from the interviewers.
- The interviewers act quite unprofessional. First by introducing her as "Carla", then by calling out Cara, saying that she doesn't seem excited for the movie and talking disrespectfully about her at the end.
