BEV talks to Susanna White

Published on April 14, 2010 | Written By Clare Callan

BEV were lucky enough to get an exclusive interview Susanna White, acclaimed director of multi award-winning series Bleak House, Jane Eyre and Generation Kill to name but a few.  Most recently she made her first foray into feature film: Nanny McPhee And The Big Bang. We talked to her about the film, her chameleon like ability to portray different Worlds in her work so successfully, her career to date and why she thinks she has only just directed her first feature film. Dubbed by many publications ‘the British Bigelow’ she also talks to us about the challenges of being a woman in a male dominated industry and encouragingly comments “hopefully we are at a watershed moment.”

Watch our interview below.  Watch the Nanny McPhee And The Big Bang trailer here.
