Listen "Mia McKenna-Bruce"
Episode Synopsis
Mia McKenna-Bruce is an English actress. Her performance in the film "How To Have Sex" is, rightfully, being spoken about with many superlatives. Subtle, controlled, thoroughly alive, deeply impacting, it is a star-making turn. There's a scene where her character, Tara, is simply walking down the street, and it's something of a revelation. It won her the BIFA for Best Lead Performance. On this episode, she breaks down the ingredients that helped her deliver this work—an extensive audition process to find her co-stars that allowed her time to play; complete trust in the director, Molly Manning Walker, and everyone on the crew; a feeling of total ownership of the character; a "360 set" that allowed for full emersion into Tara's world, a sense of obligation to "get this right" for everyone it will impact, and much more. "How To Have Sex" is out in limited release. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft. Follow Back To One on Instagram
