Sophie Kennedy Clark Video Interview On ‘Philomena,’ Judi Dench, Stephen Frears
Sophie Kennedy Clark plays a young Judi Dench in Philomena, the story of one woman’s search for her long-lost son. In the film, based on a true story, Clark performs the title role as a young woman whose son is forcefully removed from her care. “That kind of emotion is animalistic. It is without any self-awareness that you throw yourself into it,” Clark told uInterview exclusively. “[The real] Philomena was on set and that gave it a push and a gravitas to me because I wanted to do her justice. Because, ultimately, she’s watching some little actress trying to emulate what was quite possibly the most heart-wrenching and awful moment in her life that she has gone over and over and over and over again in her head and I wanted to do her justice.”
