Maggie Gyllenhaalkicked off the57th Annual New York Film Festivalwith a Negroni in hand.
“Who doesn’t love a Negroni?” the actress, who attended the festival as a guest ofCampari, asked PEOPLE on Friday night.

Gyllenhaal and Sarsgaard will occasionally watchher HBO showThe Deucetogether, but she admitted that he “owes a few episodes of season 3.”
“I really love all of it and I love everybody I’m working with,” Gyllenhaal said of the drama. “I’m so proud of it so when it goes into the world I sort of wonder what it feels like for other people to see it.”
These days, however, Gyllenhaal and Sarsgaard arerenovating their houseand staying in a small rental apartment with their two children, daughters Gloria Ray, 7, and Ramona, 13, which makes it difficult to watch the R-rated series.
“You can’t watchThe Deucein front of our children. Definitely not,” said Gyllenhaal, whose kids have seen some of her other work such asNanny McPhee, and her older daughter has watchedStranger Than FictionandMona Lisa Smile.

Gyllenhaal also credits her oldest child Ramona with opening her eyes to thefight against climate change.
“My 13-year-old got us involved,” the Oscar nominee said. “She, like many, many children, isn’t able to push out of her mind the dire situation that we’re in. We’ve learned as grownups how to do that and they haven’t learned how to do that and they’re really concerned and upset demanding that the grownups pay attention. My daughter did that to me and it took me a minute.”

Gyllenhaal attended theYouth Climate Strikein N.Y.C. earlier this month and said she “can’t not pay attention” to what’s going on.
“It’s real and we need to really change the way we’re living,” she said. “My 13-year-old who woke me up to that. It’s happening all over the world, the children are mobilizing.”
