Louise Brealey Instagram – Every summer of my twenties I packed a small brown case with an optimistic sundress and a pack of TDK-60 cassettes wrapped in plastic from the man on Tottenham Court Road and took the train to Edinburgh for @edfilmfest. It was the highlight of my journalistic year and I made friends for life (novelist Richard T Kelly, director Damien O’Donnell, critic Wendy Ide, legend @lizzielioness). If I think about how improbable it is that I should be going back this year as the lead in a beautiful BBC Film/BFI chicken factory musical love story, it makes me catch my breath. It’s hard sometimes to say it but I want to say bloody well done to my smaller self for daring to dream and for trying hard. This one is for you, my mama.
If you’re in town come and see Chuck Chuck Baby’s world premiere on Sunday 20th August and say hello. Love Loo
