Get to know the filmmaker:
What motivated you to make this film?
I was inspired by the story of Kevin Conroy, who remained in the closet for most of his life, and found it very interesting the way he played a superhero character who had a secret identity of his own, and suddenly it clicked, a light bulb turned on and I could feel a story coming to me. It also helped that I was really bored over my summer break so I essentially locked myself in a room, threw away the key, and started writing the first draft of the script.
What were your initial reactions when watching the audience talking about your film in the feedback video?
It all made sense to me, the sound issues were also apparent to me, but to be entirely honest I kind of just got tired of trying to make the film exactly perfect and figured it was better to release it now or otherwise it will just never get released, and the time I spend trying to make this slightly better could be time I spend on the next project. Overall, I’m happy with how the film turned out.

QUOTES:
I always thought of Pride and Prejudice (1995) as more of a romantic comedy than a period drama. It just happens that they were the clothes people wore when it was written.
[on trying to fit in after moving to Britain from America] There were a few days when I was having trouble finding words to express feelings of enthusiasm. But when I discovered “brilliant”, I was fine.
[nudity in her first role] I wish I’d not taken off all my clothes in my first television series, The Camomile Lawn. When I took the job, I did not realize there would be so much nudity. But no one forced me to do it. I played the young Calypso (her English actress mother, Rosemary Harris, played the character as an older woman) and had some very full-on scenes. I went home one day and was physically sick.

QUOTES:
My career is chequered. Then I think I got pigeon-holed in humour; Shakespeare is not my thing.
I tend to head for what’s amusing because a lot of things aren’t happy. But usually you can find a funny side to practically anything.
[on roles] “When you get into the granny era, you’re lucky to get anything.”
It’s true I don’t tolerate fools, but then they don’t tolerate me, so I am spiky. Maybe that’s why I’m quite good at playing spiky elderly ladies.
I’ve won two Oscars and I still don’t begin to understand film acting.
[on whether she will miss filming Harry Potter now that the series is completed] No, it was 10 years, and that’s a lot.

INFLUENCER, 94min,. Poland
Directed by Josué Mastroianni
The version of events depicted in “Influencer” is not a reality for most women but is a means to an end for others. Sex sells. Influencers sell. Often, aspiring models are caught in the middle. What is the price that some are willing to pay? “Influencer” film explores the psychology behind those hard choices. Based on actual events.
