Exploring Dame Helen Mirren's Role as Golda and the Complexity of State Burdens

It won't be long until we return to our regular broadcasting, but while we take advantage of the last days of summer break (as we hope you've been able to do, preferably with something refreshing in hand) - we've chosen to air one of our most special interviews to date. 

This July, we were lucky enough to sit down with non other than Oscar winner Dame Helen Mirren, who visited Israel to promote her new film, Golda, in which she portrays the female Israeli prime minister during the Yom Kippur War. Listen to learn how Mirren got in character, how she deals with ageism in Hollywood, plus - why she'd join the protestors against the judicial overhaul. 

“Golda” opens in theaters on August 25.
