COLETTE with Director Wash Westmoreland

Arts, TV & Film

This week on Out Takes, we turned the spotlight on COLETTE, the radiant new film from Wash Westmoreland starring Keira Knightly. COLETTE brings the

untold story of author and bisexual icon Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette and her famous Claudine novels to the big screen.

Our guest is COLETTE director, Wash Westmoreland (THE FLUFFER, STILL ALICE). We speak with Westmoreland about the message behind his powerful new film, and the importance of bringing diverse queer stories to the big screen.

We also revisiting THE WIFE starring Glenn Close and Jonathan Pryce (pictured), which hit cinemas earlier this year. Like COLETTE, THE WIFE tells the story of the woman behind the man, and furnishes a powerful commentary on gender relations and the modern politics of gender relations.
