00:00um and it's the same with accents that's why i do that's why i love doing accents
00:06it's because it's a departure from me
00:23hi hello nice to meet you hello hi hi so um can we say after watching this movie that
00:31being a parent is a huge responsibility what what makes a what makes a good parent in your opinion
00:44um i feel lucky that um
00:49i my parents when they believed in me tom that they did i think that makes a huge difference
00:54um i realized now and later on in life um that that simple fact earlier in my life has really
01:05changed the way i've lived my life until now that i had parents who believed in me
01:11and and you you agree yeah i agree with that i was very lucky um with my appearance they're both
01:20part
01:21of the film industry um and they were incredibly supportive in my career and in my personal life
01:29um i think something i really appreciate that my parents did was they surrounded my siblings and
01:37i with a lot of art and creativity and inspiration um and because of the work that they do my
01:47mum's
01:47and my dad's an acting coach and my dad's a writer director they would travel a lot and oftentimes
01:51they would bring us with them bring me and my siblings with them so i went to school when i
01:56was
01:56six in america i went to school in fiji um they really showed me a lot of the world um
02:02and i really
02:03appreciated that mm-hmm uh lee's mother says that um she says who do i tell who could i who
02:12could
02:12you tell and eileen is afraid that nobody would ever seen or see or listen to her so how important
02:21is
02:21in your opinion to be heard and to be seen it's really important um really really important i think
02:32when i was younger i've always had quite a soft and quiet voice and there were often times when i
02:41felt
02:41like i wasn't being heard and listened to and that really affected me deeply um so i try my hardest
02:48to
02:48to hear people and to listen um and to give people space to talk um because it's a big part
02:59of like
02:59you know your someone's confidence and and their expression mm-hmm you you agree isn't there's one line
03:08that mrs pock has as well which is the response to that who can you tell she says you do
03:14the best
03:15you can mm-hmm and i think to hear a woman from that period especially in the world in which
03:22she lives
03:22in you know it's a community of the police i mean her husband was a policeman um all of his
03:30friends and
03:31colleagues are policemen she if she had a problem within the relationship who could she talk to who could
03:36you tell and so knowing that you do the best you can and for me that is the reality but
03:43it's also the
03:43most heartbreaking aspect of her life mm-hmm um i think that one of the theme of the movie is
03:51um
03:52how we can deal uh with rage all these characters have a lot of rage maybe not so evident but
04:01then
04:02so in european how important is uh trying to find a way to deal with with rage
04:08i mean in the film or in um life i mean in life you probably have a lot more help
04:16now than
04:17these women did in the 1960s thank god because as you can see in the film rage manifests itself in
04:25many different ways um i mean i think what i'm interested in in the film is asking the question
04:35you know and letting an audience decide for themselves but i do think that we've made
04:40significant gains in the way in which people can now seek help if they have rage and um everybody does
04:47i think so yeah i think that ties into you know your question about listening to people and hearing
04:55people when people like eileen or mrs polk feel like they're not being heard even when when they feel
05:04like they're just like shouting into the abyss um that can result in more extreme actions so just
05:13you do really yeah it's important to listen to people and to not brush things under under the rug i
05:20suppose mm-hmm and so this is also very interesting i think for drama for cinema for
05:27theatre for all art if you have characters who are whose emotions are very so are on the surface
05:34they're on the verge of something so there's something bubbling up underneath all of these and
05:38we see it in the movie we see these moments where it bursts but for me makes compelling
05:43characters and people i want to see on screen that's the earlier aspect that
05:47and thomasin why do you love period drama so much i think i like um i like doing roles
06:00or films that are set in the past that are have a years of removal from the modern day because
06:08to me
06:08it's easier to kind of inhabit those roles because there's more of a separation from them and from
06:14real life um in a way it's escapism for me and if they're set far in the future or far
06:22in the past it
06:23means that you know i'm the the the clothing is drastically different the environment the way of
06:29life is drastically different um and it's the same with accents that's why i do that's why i love doing
06:37accents it's because it's a departure from me it's interesting in the movie that um we we don't know
06:46who to trust who watches the watchman even if people who have to um and let us feel safe
06:55who can we trust in your opinion it's a good question i think if you're lucky you have people
07:01in your life you can trust whether they be your parents or your siblings or friends um
07:09and hopefully they have the influence to to help you to do something about that but sometimes even just
07:18having someone to to vent to or having someone to express your emotions to that in itself can be a
07:25big help whether any action is made um it's very important and i think that what went wrong in eileen's
07:35life is she didn't have that she didn't have anyone to trust um and so that's why she you know
07:44that's
07:44that's that's that's why we made this film do you agree
07:53very difficult question because i think that you know people are asking this question now of course
07:57they are you know who do they trust people that i think the the authority figures of
08:04of of of the past times no longer exist i think that you know there was once a time where
08:10you knew
08:11you had a very clear sense of who you could turn to in a time of trouble and who you
08:16could trust but i
08:17think those those authority figures have sort of eroded away now we we we understand them not to be
08:24trustworthy and i think it's really um a dangerous and difficult time for people especially in politics
08:34you know in law enforcement in the church maybe these places where you
08:40used to think that actually there was something concrete you know what what who do you go to now
08:47you know the becoming more insulated um it's difficult okay thank you so much thank you for your time
08:56and great job and great job thank you thank you very much thank you thank you very much bye
09:01you
