Over on The Screenster Podcast (listen on iTunes, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts) I’m lucky to have chatted to some brilliant people in the film and television world. From the Cinematographer on Normal People, to the Production Designer on Fleabag, as well as actors on your favourite shows like Game of Thrones, I’ve enjoyed finding out more about the shows I love…
Despite having watched each episode twice over, Normal People, to me, now feels like a distant memory. And that’s more of a conscious choice because I think, at one point, I was in over my head. Did it make me feel nostalgic? Heartbroken? Sad? Happy? Excited? Optimistic? Well, yes. All those things. And more, so much more. The show made many…
Whether it’s romcoms, 90s teen movies, court dramas, documentaries, reality TV, the latest Netflix binge or the show that everyone is talking about on Amazon Prime, there is literally no time like the present to settle down in front of something. I know, I know. It’s easy to guilt yourselves over too-much screen time. And I obviously don’t mean sit in front…
Or rather, in the Baby Club in an EVERYMAN Cinema on a Tuesday morning. I joined my friend (with her baby) this week. Because, well, I’m a freelancer and I thought I’d take advantage of the ‘softer’ sounds and the coffee and cake that gets brought right to your seat. Basically, it was heaven. As the film played, I looked…
I know, I know. Cinema events seem like they’re meant for the Christmas period or for summer. I’m over it, you might think. I’m going to hibernate in my house until the sad month of January finishes. I get it. But here’s the best part: Backyard Cinema is continuing to show wonderful films well into January (and February!) and it’s still completely worth your…
Knives Out is (legendary) director Rian Johnson’s latest ‘Whodunnit’. The movie tells the story of the Thrombey family whose patriarch is suspiciously ‘killed’ and they need to get to the bottom of, well, who done it. Cue three hilarious policemen led by Daniel Craig sporting an impressive Southern American accent (it’s nice to see him in something that isn’t awfully British). He seemed to…
Me, Myself & I
Welcome to Screenster. I’m Georgie and I’m interested in the TV shows and films that entertain, make you laugh, keep you company and remind us that there are still lots of jobs out there for actors. I’m an actor myself and I needed something that stopped me from twiddling my thumbs and, well, pulling my hair out when I’m not working. I’m also a podcast host, golden retriever enthusiast, netball captain and Newcastle United fan.
Follow me on @screensteruk too. Nice to meet you!
Acting Work
Need an actress? (I’ve heard there’s a shortage…). You can find out more about my acting work here. Yes, I’ve got an agent so please do get in touch! I also now host The Screenster Podcast, a TV and film podcast which looks at the nuts and bolts of this industry. Each week, I chat to different people in the business – from producers to location caterers and script supervisors. We chew the fat on everything from mental health to what they’re watching.
