- Actors Meryl Streep and Jeremy Irons remember working with the late filmmaker Karel Reisz on the 1981 drama THE FRENCH LIEUTENANT'S WOMAN, which is available in Blu-ray and DVD editions from the Criterion Collection.
Two living legends... Jeremy and Meryl. Thank you both for your tremendous gifts and for all the incredible performances over the years.
WORKING WITH MERYL STREEP 1980
In 1980 I was the location unit manager on the Dorset England shoot of
THE FRENCH LIEUTENANT'S WOMAN, the first starring role for MERYL STREEP.
I rented a house for her, her husband Don Gummer, their baby Henry and
their nanny. The contract stated NO PARTIES. Meryl asked everyone, I
mean everyone, hairy arsed Sparks, drivers, runners, the wives, kids,
etc., to call her MERYL. She came to me
in a break and she said " Barry, I want to throw a party in my house on
Friday night after the wrap for everyone", meaning the whole crew and
their partners. I balked .. ..I had signed the contract with a lawyer
expressly prohibiting it. "I'll get back to you". I went to my producer,
the gruff and lovely cigar smoking veteran LEON CLORE. "Of course she
can" he said, "so if they make a fuss so will we". Leon was street smart
savvy.
The Friday night party was open house for everyone, wives,
girlfriends, boyfriends, electricians, Harold Pinter, Jeremy Irons and
his wife, Irish actress Sinéad Cusack, a big warm welcome house, with
our hostess Meryl washing up in the crowded kitchen, as we made a buffet
together and poured drinks and danced till late. No trouble came of it.
One more thing, "No photographs.". There are more stories. This one
still moves me. She was and is wonderful.
Wonderful. Wonder woman.
Omg. Thank you for this. I love insight into movies. Your posting is a gem of a read.
Barry beckett, thank you for sharing this! (I feel like I was at that party. Dancing.)
Can you talk more on The French Lieutenant’s Woman?
And then together again in the masterpiece The House of the Spirits! Marvelous actors!
Truly a spectacular film.
It may be my very favorite of each of the principal actors work.
Now almost 40 years later after it's initial release, and
I enjoy it every bit as much each and every time I watch
it.
It may be the very first time that I can say a theatric presentation has out done the novel upon which it was based. Truly outstanding.
I'm presently reading the book for the fourth time ..... Superb! And the film certainly captures the essence of Fowles' vision.
It's a MIRACLE. Harold. Meryl .Jeremy . Karel . All of Them....
Such a beautiful and yet simple concept of a movie. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Meryl's performance in this interview was masterful. lol
I love meryl she’s simply the best
One of the most enjoyable movies I’ve ever seen.
Yes, you are a remarkable person, Meryl❤
The most challenging role of Meryl's career and as a result one of her best.
My favorite movie of all time.
Love the Pre-Raphaelites!
One of my fave books of all time. Need to rewatch this film tho
Ooh I Wish I could see that movie right here and now. I actually never saw it before.
SEE IT M8 - put it on ur "bucket list" - deffo!!!😙
It was a beautiful movie. I got more hooked with Charles and Sarah's love story. The magnificent acting of Meryl, indeed she is remarkable!
this film was greatly inspired by Vertigo of Hitchcock
I can imagine as an actor after 10 or more takes, it might be a relief to get a line reading from the Director. I understand that I just generally don’t like Line readings because they have their own process and they feel that day on the character or that they are the character. But I can just imagine the frustration of continually disappointing the Director. And not being given any direction on how to do a thing differently.

Mufasa would be jealous of Scar😜

Movie sucked
this is a dumb movie just sayin cos i ddnt like this movie
You have every right not to like it. But why do you think it's "dumb" as you call it? I've seen extremely dumb films but this one didn't strike me as one. You should read the book: it's great.
@@emiliel.5210 or just say you didnt enjoy the film...an excellent film from my point of view...its just an opinion and not the worlds opinion...just yours
Must have been dumb, then.
