Episode notes
See Birdy On The Big Screen
- Catherine Called Birdy balances anachronistic modern dialogue with medieval setting to broaden appeal.
- Mark Kermode recommends seeing it on the big screen for Bella Ramsey's energetic performance and Lena Dunham's warm direction.
Why Auteur Films Attract Her
- Rampling prefers 'other filmmaking' where a single creator writes and directs personal material.
- She says that intimate, auteur-driven projects let actors reach deeper, more truthful emotional performances.

- Shoot scenes in sequence when possible to help actors grow relationships organically on camera.
- Rampling notes doing Juniper largely in-sequence aided the believable development between characters.
