Should 50 per cent of Telefilm's projects be helmed, produced, or written by women? I think so.
From Sarah Gadon
What happens when we questions power structures? What are the consequences?
I feel like biopics are so difficult to get around.
I read a lot about her. I read a lot of bios. I read bios about the royal family; I read this little novella called 'The Uncommon Reader,' which is a fiction: it's about Queen Elizabeth going on this library bus and choosing books and reading them, but it's so sweet.
When it came time to go to university, I wanted to study cinema studies and theater and not necessarily do a fine arts degree.
I fell in love with filmmaking. I fell in love with criticism. I fell in love with theory, and it made me really dogmatic in my approach to choosing roles.
I prefer the European films that are like, 'No, it's over! They both die. The End.'
I can walk down the street and have a human experience every day.
I'm not an actor who is trying to be a movie star.
I'm trying to be a working actor. I'm not in pursuit of fame. I'm not trying to be in the kinds of films that make you famous like that.
