On the day of its UK and Irish release, we're stoked to release the interviews we recorded earlier this week with the team from new Irish horror You Are Not My Mother, from debut director Kate Dolan. Niamh caught up with Hazel and Carolyn who play mother and daughter Angela and Char in the film; before Gerry chatted with Kate to round us out.
The interviews start at around the 18 min mark for any keen beans! Or, play straight through to listen to Gerry and Niamh catch up in their usual pre-chat, which covers all the fun of the Oscars as well as the last fortnight's cinematic happenings.
