The Bride! – Q&A with Maggie Gyllenhaal
by The National Board of Review
That dance number was incredible! What was it like to direct a big dance number?
Maggie Gyllenhaal: That dance number was a very specific tightrope walk. The way we shot it and the way we choreographed it took a lot of care, forethought, and then a lot of work.

What keeps you interested in these characters? Because ultimately it’s the same premise every time: just trying to book a show at the Rivoli, right?

Wuthering Heights – Q&A with Emerald Fennell
by The National Board of Review
I love what you said about how the book never judges its characters, despite their actions. How did that inform you as you began to adapt the book?
Emerald Fennell: I think everyone in this book is kind of deeply troubling. That’s what makes it such a masterpiece, you know? The sum of its parts and the sum of their parts are so much more.

Peacock – Q&A with Bernhard Wenger and Albrecht Schuch
by The National Board of Review
