Lucy Halliday

And so I feel like it's given these opportunities and that is so gratifying as a director that you're working with people and actually changing lives.

And two people in the film, one of them, it stars Lucy Halliday, Aidan Gillan, Gemma Whelan, who've all... done amazing things but there were two girls in the film and I do think that one was working in an old people's home and one in a bar and it's changed their life already and one of them's already been signed to an agency and so it's just incredibly fulfilling because the film in a way goes constructs something out of a very difficult time also a really fun and beautiful time as well and then it gave this other Thing to people in Stockport where I'm from which is in that you know that book crap towns If you don't know that book it features heavily in there and and when you go to Stockport the big teachers are Stockport's not shit And also Amy Lou Amy Lou is from Stockport, but the posh bit Okay, so

If we look at your career, okay, so Dreams of a Life, which is, you know, it's documentary and drama intertwined.

The Falling, which is the film in which, if you haven't mentioned it already, you discovered Florence Pugh, and obviously owes her entire career to you.

But we are also introduced to a new generation of women navigating Gilead.

We meet two young marriage-ready characters, Agnes, played by Chase Infinity, and Daisy, played by Lucy Halliday.

And they have a connection to June, right?

Yes.
