Sarah played Jennifer‘s daughter in Object of My Affection, and she remembered that while filming the movie, she didn’t get a trailer of her own.

“I had a honey wagon. There was no Blimpies or chocolate-covered strawberries. … [A honey wagon] is a sleeve of a room,” Sarah explained about the space.

She went on, saying that having just that was “a bit of a culture shock for me in the industry, from the chocolate-covered strawberries and conference room.”

“My mom was like, ‘Oh thank goodness, she’s not gonna want to act anymore, because she sees how it really is as a working actor.’ But then I’d be doing my penmanship on the side of the street, because it was a nice day out, and the honey wagon smelled like a bathroom – because it was,” Sarah continued. “And Jennifer Aniston saw me, and she was like, ‘Oh, honey, what are you doing? No, come into my trailer, do your homework there.’”

Sarah then joked that her mom “was like, ‘Gosh, Jennifer. I am trying to teach my daughter a lesson that it is not all glamour. And now, you’re inviting her into your entire trailer.’ With like a bed and a kitchen, and it was like one of those massive trailers.”

Her mom’s mind was changed from then on, as Jennifer actually helped her with her homework that she had, too.

“Jennifer Aniston would help me with my penmanship and everything. And my mom was like, ‘My goodness, my daughter’s just the luckiest little girl that she keeps getting pulled into these places.’”
