Q & A

the Wasp
What appealed to you about
The Children Act?
The book is so beautifully written
but what really bit into me
was learning about the female
judges in family court. I was
so imp ressed by these women.
Your character is going through a
challenging period in her life. Can
you talk us through her troubles?
The film starts just as this
massive crack appears in Fiona’s
marriage, and you see her having
to step over it straight into the
court room. She returns home to
this chasm and she can’t address it
because she’s got to do the work.
Director Richard Eyre has five
Olivier awards. How, if at all, did
his stage background contribute?
Not only can he see what you’re
doing but he can see how to get
more out of your performance.
I was constantly grateful to him.
