Kristin Scott Thomas on how Military Wives speaks to our current moment
We caught up with Scott Thomas while she was busy tending to her garden in the English countryside to discuss how much she relished the chance to poke fun at those self-serious women, why the film stirred up childhood memories, what her go-to karaoke song would be, and more.
Not so much once we were going. I did ask quite a lot of people who I knew well, including members of my family, who'd experienced Afghanistan [and] Iraq what was it like having your nearest and dearest on the front line. What does it feel like? Which is a very difficult conversation, because obviously people want to put on a brave face and say, "Oh no, we just get on with it.
I had to do a lot prep work. I could understand a tune and I can vaguely read music, but that is absolutely it. I'd had to sing once or twice for plays. But singing in a play wasn't really such a big deal. I was quite scared, and it didn't really matter because everyone was in the same state.
This film predominantly stars and is about women, which frankly is pretty rare. Did that make the set or the work feel substantially different in any way? It was really amazing. I can't tell you what a horrible day it was because we were in this tunnel and it was freezing cold rain. It wasn't really raining; they put fake rain, which was in coming down in buckets because there's much more [water in] fake rain than there is in real rain. You've got this sort of water thundering down, and the smell in the tunnel was quite something. So it was smelly, dark, freezing cold, and damp.
