Kristin Scott Thomas on My Mother's Wedding and the unreliability of memory
In a Q interview, the British actor discusses her directorial debut, which is inspired by memories of her dads
When Kristin Scott Thomas was six years old, her father, a Royal Navy pilot, died in service. Then her mother remarried another Royal Navy pilot, who also died in service when she was 11. Now, the Oscar-nominated British actor is playing a character inspired by her twice-widowed mother in a new film called My Mother's Wedding, which is also her directorial debut. She joins guest host Garvia Bailey to talk about My Mother's Wedding, the unreliability of memory, and how she got her big break thanks to Prince.
