Girls On Film | Episode 27 | 3 February 2020

Director Marielle Heller joins host Anna Smith for a special mini-episode devoted to her new film, A Beautiful Day In The Neighbourhood, starring Matthew Rhys and Tom Hanks.

Heller reveals the story behind casting Hanks as legendary children’s TV presenter Fred Rogers, and discusses the need for compassionate filmmaking. She also talks about following The Diary Of A Teenage Girl with the Oscar-winning Can You Ever Forgive Me? – and explains why Oscar voters need to change their views on directing.
