Last week, I got to chat with Director Marc Evans for his new movie, Hunky Dory which comes out this Friday 2nd March. It stars Minnie Driver (who we also got to chat with – look out for that interview tomorrow), Aneurin Barnard, Danielle Branch, Robert Pugh, Haydn Gwynne and Steve Speirs. The movie is about a drama teacher named Vivienne (Driver) at a high school in Swansea who sets about putting on a rock ‘n’ roll version of Shakespeare’s The Tempest, during the hottest UK summer on record in 1976.
If you’re a fan of Grease, High School Musical or Glee, then you should definitely check it out. I like the movie a little more than Lisa who’s review is live here. During the interview with Marc, we find out where the story came from, if it was inspired by TV shows like Glee and what it was like filming a movie in freezing Wales while pretending that it was a heatwave!
