Brenda Blethyn: BAFTA Scotland Interview

  • 90 mins

Britain’s most beloved character actress talks through her career.

Few performers stir the sort of instinctive and genuine affection inspired by Brenda Blethyn – but she backs her bubbly sweetness up with acting chops that are respected the world over. It was Mike Leigh’s Secrets and Lies (1996) that made her a star and a first-time Oscar® nominee; she went on to shine in Little Voice (1998), Lovely and Amazing (2001), Pride and Prejudice (2005), Atonement (2007) and this year’s EIFF World Premiere The Calling.
