Rosamund Pike interviews from the Guardian and Baz Bamigboye's Daily Mail column about Barney's Version; and an article from the BBC with her thoughts about Made in Dagenham's relative lack of BAFTA nominations.


Rosamund's Made in Dagenham co-star Andrea Riseborough stars as Rose in Brighton Rock, which will be released in the UK 4 February. Andrea has been interviewed in the Dazed & Confused February 2011 issue (via The Fashion Spot) and the Independent. In other publicity, an excerpt about her from the Telegraph's set visit:

"'I was so passionate about Brighton Rock from the outset,' she says. 'So I decided not to do a different film and had a bit of a rejig of my schedule and swapped round. It was wonderful and it all worked out brilliantly.'
'Andrea inhabits a role completely,' Joffe [Rowan Joffe, director] observes, 'and that's quite a dangerous and difficult process – to really lose yourself in a character, especially one as dark and victimised as Rose. But as well as being a great actress, Andrea’s a solid Geordie lass who has both feet on the ground.'"

Reviews

The Guardian
"Andrea Riseborough's breathtaking performance as Rose... Her portrayal of Rose grips the heart from the beginning and does not let go until the final frame."

Screen Daily
"Andrea Riseborough is perfect as the gauche and bumbling Rose... sweet but never beautiful (unlike the delightful Riseborough)"
