Podcast appearances and mentions of Romola Garai

Romola Garai won her first professional acting roles as a teenager, and since then, her career has taken her in a wide range of dramatic directions. Most recently, she won a 2025 Olivier Award for her role in The Years, a sometimes shocking play based on a novel by Nobel Prize winner Annie Ernaux – and she was competing against herself, with a nomination in the same category for her part in Giant, a play about Roald Dahl.Her previous stage work includes playing Cordelia opposite Ian McKellen's King Lear, and her extensive screen credits include the title role in a BBC adaptation of Jane Austen's Emma. She also won acclaim for The Hour, a drama set behind the scenes of a TV current affairs programme in the 1950s. In 2020, she went behind the camera to write and direct a horror film called Amulet. Romola's music choices include John Taverner, Handel and Keith Jarrett.

Emma's in her Mean Era, and we're halfway through the ONLY way to enjoy what film critics are calling the "scintillating" "Emma Squadrilogy." That's right, this week it's Part 1 and 2 of Romola Garai's 2009 Emma miniseries, featuring Crash Override and Dumbledore. Hack the planet! Special thanks to Baby Bee Carys for the theme music!

Freda Cooper talks to director Anand Tucker and co-stars Ian McKellen and Gemma Arterton about their new film, The Critic, in cinemas now. THE CRITIC is a deliciously dark and sharp-witted thriller set in 1930s London ‘theatreland' featuring an all-star cast including Ian McKellen, Gemma Arterton, Mark Strong, Ben Barnes, Alfred Enoch, Romola Garai and Lesley Manville. When the most feared and vicious theatre critic in town Jimmy Erskine (McKellen), finds himself suddenly in the crosshairs of the Daily Chronicle's new owner David Brooke (Strong), he strikes a sinister Faustian pact with struggling actress Nina Land (Arterton) who is desperate to win his favour.  If you'd like to send us a voice memo for use in a future episode, please email podcast@picturehouses.co.uk.

Annie Ernaux's Booker-nominated book, Les Années, traces her journey from childhood in post-war France to old age in the post-9/11 era. Now adapted for the stage, Gina Mckee, Deborah Findlay and Romola Garai, alongside Anjli Mohindra and Harmony Rose-Bremner, are the five actors portraying different stages in the life of an ‘unnamed' French woman. Romola Garai joins Nuala McGovern in the Woman's Hour studio. We talk to Regina Barzilay, a Professor of AI & Health in the Department of Computer Science at MIT, about how her own breast cancer diagnosis shifted her research to predicting cancer. Regina and her team have built an Artificial Intelligence system that can predict almost half of all incidences of breast cancer up to five years before they happen. And author Rebecca Watson on her latest novel I Will Crash - a unique take on sibling torment. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Lisa Jenkinson

Arte.tv est toujours là pour proposer des titres qualitatifs qu'on a pu rater par le passé, et la mise en ligne de The Hour ne fait pas exception. À la tête de cette production BBC en 2011 qui a duré deux saisons, on retrouve la scénariste Abi Morgan, déjà connue pour ses récits puissants et émouvants (qui nous a offert plus tard The Split par ailleurs également disponible sur arte.tv). Avec The Hour, Morgan a plongé dans une reconstitution ambitieuse et captivante de la salle de rédaction d'une chaîne de télévision britannique des années 1950. L'équipe créative derrière cette série comprend un casting cinq étoiles dont Ben Whishaw, Romola Garai et Dominic West. C'est dans l'univers fascinant de la télévision en pleine guerre froide que le spectateur est transporté. Chaque épisode mélange intrigue politique, drame personnel et journalisme engagé. La série commence en 1956, une période de tensions et de bouleversements, aussi bien sur la scène internationale qu'au sein du Royaume-Uni. https://youtu.be/cJxp25IJv9I?si=EwzQhcrz36CxEoD9 La première saison de pose les bases de l'univers de la série. On y découvre Freddie Lyon (Wishaw), un journaliste brillant mais souvent rebelle, qui n'hésite pas à aller contre l'autorité pour révéler la vérité. Bel Rowley (Garai), sa meilleure amie et collègue, est nommée productrice de « The Hour », une nouvelle émission d'actualités ambitieuse. Hector Madden (West), un présentateur charismatique mais complexe, rejoint l'équipe en tant que visage de l'émission. Les relations entre ces trois différents personnages et leurs principes sont au cœur de la série. Par exemple, les deux hommes représentent deux visions différentes du journalisme : Freddie, le puriste passionné par la vérité à tout prix, et Hector, le présentateur charismatique parfois plus préoccupé par son image que par les principes éthiques. L'intrigue principale de la première saison tourne autour de la couverture par l'émission de la crise de Suez et de la guerre froide. En parallèle, une intrigue secondaire captivante se développe : Freddie découvre une conspiration et une série de meurtres liés à des figures importantes du gouvernement. Cette découverte met en danger sa vie et celle de ses collègues, tout en dévoilant les tensions et les secrets au sein de la rédaction. La saison 2 reprend en 1957, et du temps a passé. Le ton semble un peu plus sombre mais avec des personnages toujours aussi intenses. En tout cas, au cours de ces deux saisons, la reconstitution historique avec des costumes impeccables et des décors authentiques immergent encore plus dans l'époque des années 50. Si même plus de 10 ans après la diffusion de la série elle reste autant d'actualités, c'est parce qu'Abi Morgan a réussi à écrire des personnages intemporels et à mettre en lumière le journalisme engagé. La société d'aujourd'hui montre une défiance claire envers les médias qui ont trop tendance à tordre la vérité. L'écho qu'on y retrouve n'est toujours pas loin… [bs_show url="the-hour-2011"] The Hour est à (re)découvrir sur arte.tv même toutes ces années après pour tous les aficionados de drames engagés.

ONE LIFE hält sich seit Wochen in den Kinocharts und begeistert die Filmfans von Großbritannien, Italien, den Niederlanden bis nach Australien und Neuseeland! Allein in Frankreich sahen am ersten Wochenende mehr als 355.000 Besucher die bewegende wahre Geschichte über Sir Nicholas Winton. In der fesselnden Welt des Kinos gibt es Geschichten, die uns an die Kraft der Menschlichkeit und des Mutes erinnern – ONE LIFE ist zweifellos eine solche Geschichte. Unter der Regie von James Hawes erzählt dieser Film die außergewöhnliche wahre Geschichte von Sir Nicholas Winton, der durch seinen unermüdlichen Einsatz das Leben von 669 Kindern rettete. In Beates Microfazit zu ONE LIFE widmet sie sich der tiefen emotionalen Resonanz, die diese Geschichte hervorruft, vor allem durch die beeindruckenden schauspielerischen Leistungen von Sir Anthony Hopkins und dem Ensemble um Johnny Flynn und Helena Bonham Carter. Ihre Darbietungen bringen die menschlichen Qualitäten von Wintons Geschichte zum Leuchten und verankern das emotionale Gewicht seines Erbes. Doch während sie die Geschichte und die Darsteller feiert, wirft sie auch einen kritischen Blick auf die Machart des Films. ONE LIFE mag in seiner erzählerischen Form und technischen Ausführung eher traditionell wirken – vielleicht sogar ein wenig aus einer anderen Zeit. Dieser Aspekt lässt sie fragen: Hätte dieser Film mit einem moderneren Ansatz noch mehr erreichen können? Begleitet Beate, während sie diese Aspekte ausbalanciert und erkundet, was den Film zu einem bewegenden, wenn auch stilistisch vertrauten Kinoerlebnis macht. Entdeckt, warum die Geschichte und die schauspielerische Leistung diesen Film tragen und ihm eine unvergängliche Bedeutung verleihen, auch wenn die filmische Umsetzung selbst Raum für Diskussionen bietet. Kinostart: 28.03.2024 Regie: James HawesBesetzung: Anthony Hopkins, Johnny Flynn, Helena Bonham Carter, Lena Olin, Romola Garai, Alex Sharp, Marthe Keller, Jonathan Pryce Bildrechte: © SquareOne Entertainment

Summary: Summer is coming to a close and academia is back on our minds. Welcome to our fourth LoveFest, where Holly and Devin talk about Jane Austen for literally longer than they've ever spoken about anything on the podcast before. Born in 1775, Austen received a home-based education and began writing in her teens. Her novels were published anonymously during her short life; she died in 1817 at age 41 of what modern physicians believe to be Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Her six novels, though, have endured for centuries and are recognized especially for their wit, humor, and keen social commentary.  Topics Discussed: Sense and Sensibility (13:09): Elinor and Marianne Dashwood teach the reader via their contrasting approaches to love that a successful romance requires both logic and passion; Holly's introduction to Austen and a mutual favorite Adaptations: 1995 film ft Emma Thompson, Kate Winslet, Alan Rickman, Hugh Grant, and Harriet Walter. 2008 BBC Miniseries ft. Dan Stevens, Hattie Morahan and Charity Wakefield. Pride & Prejudice (25:53): This novel is the foundation of what we think of as a romance book and is still the template some 200+ years later; Lizzie Bennet is a heroine for the ages and Darcy one of the best romantic leads in all of literature.  Adaptations: 1995 BBC Miniseries ft. Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle. 2005 Joe Wright film ft. Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen  Emma (39:43): Emma Woodhouse goes from playing matchmaking games and meddling in the lives of her friends and acquaintances to realizing she has to mature to earn the proper match of her own in this hilarious, witty novel; Mister Knightley is a favorite of both Holly and Devin.  Adaptations: 1995 film Clueless ft. Alicia Silverstone, Stacey Dash and Brittany Murphy, 2009 BBC miniseries ft. Romola Garai and Johnny Lee Miller, 2020 film ft. Anya Taylor Joy and Johnny Flynn  Mansfield Park (49:01): Following one of the harder heroines to love and root for, Fanny, the reader journeys through all kinds of tomfoolery and propriety transgressions on their way to a happy ending in Austen's least-loved novel (for Holly and Devin, at least); key themes of class differences, privilege, and morality add meaning.  Adaptations: Don't bother.  Northanger Abbey (1:01:13): It's a teenage dream for the reader as we follow Catherine Morland through her summer in Bath as she discovers herself, the meaning of true and false friendships, and ultimately - love (with a side of melodrama and a “murder investigation”); Austen pokes fun at the Gothic novels so popular at the time.  Adaptations: 2007 Northanger Abbey TV miniseries featuring Felicity Jones Persuasion (1:11:36): In her final work, we follow Austen's oldest protagonist (27, gasp!) Anne Elliot, who had forsaken her love of Frederick Wentworth years ago after pressure from her family about his status. The reader explores the power of love, of self-advocacy, and not bending to societal pressure while rooting enthusiastically for Anne and Wentworth alike. If you want more details on this novel, check out Episode 17, Classics.  Adaptations: 1995 film ft. Ciaran Hinds and Amanda Root, 2007 film ft. Sally Hawkins, 2022 film ft. Dakota Johnson and Cosmo Jarvis (skip unless you want a laugh) Hot On the Shelf (1:18:58): Devin: With Love, from Cold World by Alicia Thompson Holly: Let Him In by William Friend What's Making Our Hearts Race (1:21:37): Devin: Barbie Holly: Oppenheimer    Instagram: @heartsanddaggerspod Website: www.heartsanddaggerspod.com   If you like what you hear, please tell your friends and rate and review us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify so that we can find our perfect audience.

That's right - they're talking about Atonement starring the great Keira Knightley.

La reine que vous connaissez, la femme que vous ne connaissez pas. Telle est l'accroche du nouveau drame historique de Starzplay, qui va se concentrer sur la future reine Elizabeth Ire. La chaîne habituée des adaptations de la romancière et historienne Philppa Gregory, avec The White Princess, The White Queen, etc. revient sur la dynastie des Tudor avec non pas une adaptation mais une création originale d'Anya Reiss, plus connue pour son travail de dramaturge. Les figures historiques sont bien présentes, d'une jeune et naïve Elizabeth (Alicia von Rittenberg) au manipulateur Thomas Seymour (Tom Cullen) sans oublier Mary la future reine d'Écosse (Romola Garai) ou encore Catherine Parr (Jessica Raine). Des acteurs anglais assez familiers pour la plupart sauf notre actrice principale qui débarque des Pays-Bas. Bienvenue dans la cour d'Angleterre avec ses coups bas et ses trahisons politiques pour un nouveau jeu de pouvoirs qui pourrait bien vous captiver avec Becoming Elizabeth. https://youtu.be/Ga3vxrWsMQE La créatrice et son actrice principale rencontrées à Séries Mania en 2022 reviennent sur ce nouveau projet. Pour Anya Reiss tout d'abord, quand elle s'est vraiment penchée sur la vie d'Elizabeth, elle a réalisé à quel point cet âge charnière de passage à l'âge adulte avait été survolé et que les œuvres s'attachaient plus à son règne en majorité. Donc au final, ce n'est pas du vu et réchauffé ce qu'elle pouvait proposer. De plus, tous les faits historiques racontés dans la série sont véritablement avérés et leur liberté artistique n'a fait que combler les trous entre les épisodes réels. Et cela se ressent dans la série. Malgré les ressorts dramatiques, l'aspect authentique se perçoit et d'ailleurs les problèmes de succession peuvent parfois perdre le spectateur tellement il y en a. La volonté de Reiss est simplement de montrer les êtres humains derrière l'Histoire. Et c'est dans ce sens qu'Alicia Von Rittenberg a également joué. Elizabeth n'est pas encore reine quand l'histoire commence puisque c'est son frère qui est couronné. Son état d'esprit au départ est celle d'une jeune femme rebelle qui aspire juste à vivre et à profiter de la vie plutôt qu'à former des complots politiques. C'est pourquoi dans son interprétation, l'actrice a pu puiser dans sa propre expérience. Cette approche humaine des personnages plutôt que d'une transposition de l'Histoire confère un aspect très accessible à Becoming Elizabeth. [bs_show url="becoming-elizabeth"] Cette série pourrait marquer le tournant d'une nouvelle ère de drames historiques de la part de Starz qui met un pied dans la cour des grands avec des mini-séries événements toujours inspirés de faits réels comme Gaslitavec des stars comme Sean Penn ou encore Julia Roberts, mais aussi The Girl From Plainville avec Elle Fanning qui devrait arriver prochainement sur la plateforme. Moins portées sur le sensationnalisme que des titres cultes de Starz mais qui gagnent à être prises au sérieux. On peut imaginer avec Becoming Elizabeth toute une épopée sur la vie de la future reine après tout. Profitez actuellement de l'offre Starzplay à 1,99€/mois pendant trois mois ! Becoming Elizabeth qui commence le 12 juin sera composée de huit épisodes pour sa première saison, disponible sur Starzplay au rythme d'un épisode par semaine.

In every murder investigation, there's one key item which could bring a killer to justice. But finding it....and knowing what evidence it contains....well that's the challenge. Because the smoking gun could be anything. A bouquet of flowers...a Chinese meal...a mosquito. In this series – Produced by the makers of ‘The Missing', we tell the remarkable true stories of how everyday items such as these have been the key to unlocking a criminal case. And we unpack the science - revealing the cutting edge techniques and the disciplines mastered over decades, which allow specialist forensic scientists to find this evidence. Hosted by actor Romola Garai, and the UK's most prominent forensic scientist Tracy Alexander.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On this 30th episode of Fabulous Film and Friends, my sister and I are going to discuss the 2007 romantic war drama Atonement, directed by Joe Wright and starring James McAvoy, Keira Knightly, Saorsie Ronan, Benecict Cumberbatch, Romola Garai, Brenda Blethlyn, Harriet Walter and Vanessa Redgrave in what is arguably one of the finest war films ever made, second only to Apocalypse Now.The synopsis:Briony Tallis is a fanciful and precocious girl of 13, skilled at writing plays and stomping about on her family's palacial English estate in 1936, meddling in her family's affairs and seemingly oblivious to the brewing World War, despite talk from Paul Marshall, a rich chocolatier and family guest. Briony witnesses Robbie Turner, an educated housekeeper's son living on the family estate, making love to her sister Cecilia in the main house library, she is confused and angered by what she saw and takes it to mean something else.  This incident is compounded by the fact that earlier Robbie handed Briony a letter to give to Cecilia  where he mistakenly stuffed the envelope with a sexually explicit message which Briony promptly read and misunderstood.Concurrently, Briony's cousin Lola and her younger brothers Pieorot and Jackson are house guests during the same weekend. When the younger brothers decide to run away back to London to their parents, Lola is sexually assaulted during a search expedition for the boys. Briony witnesses the end of the assault and sees someone running off, and assumes it is Robbie.Telling her family and the authorities, Robbie is arrested and charged for the crime and spends four years in prison, only released to serve as a private in the English army, and is making his way to the beach at Dunkirk in Northern France in 1940.Gravely wounded, it is Robbie's fresh memories of Cecelia from six months earlier --where they met for a brief moment over tea and where she pledged her devotion to him and demands that he “come back to her” --that are keeping him alive as he tries to make it back to England to reunite with her at her friend's sea-side cottage.Meanwhile Briony, now 18 and working as a hospital nurse, has grown to accept that what she did to Robbie was based on childhood misperceptions and an outright lie as she recalls that it was chocolatier Paul Marshall who assaulted Lola when she sees a newsreel announcing Paul and Lola's wedding.Decades later, a elderly and dying Briony, now a successful novelist, completes her   last novel entitled Atonement as reparations for what she did to Robbie and her sister Cecilia. What makes this film stand out as one of the finest human dramas of all time?Find out!

Her recent work includes the music for Romola Garai's feature film Amulet - a terse, electroacoustic score which explores the sonorities of voices and ancient instruments, revealing and augmenting them with Sarah's distinctive digital and electronic techniques. Sarah's music draws on her lifelong interest in European folksong, cybernetics and esoteric sound culture. These inspire her progressive and strikingly original music. Her work reflects an eclectic musical background. A classically-trained composer who specialised in baroque and renaissance music, Sarah cut her teeth performing on the UK folk scene. Her desire to get inside notes and finely manipulate sound then build her own automatic music machines led her to study electroacoustic engineering, then robotics, alongside music – fields that continue to inform her unique compositional style.

Chris also has a natter this week with Romola Garai, the British actress who makes her directorial debut with the ultra-creepy horror film, Amulet.
