PODCAST | Chiara Nicoletti interviews Romola Garai, actress of the film Miss Marx.
Romola Garai is Susanna Nicchiarelli’s new muse in Miss Marx, screening in competition at the 77th Venice Film Festival. The actress describes Eleanor Marx, her character and how it is the second time she gets to play a woman fighting for equality and people/women’s rights after Suffragette by Sarah Gavron. Romola Garai leads us into the world of Eleanor Marx, a woman so ahead of her time but overpowered by the contradictions between her private life and per public one. How can someone be so independent and brave in the public fights and at the same time a “slave” of passion and love in private? Miss Marx takes her revenge.
Miss Marx: Bright, intelligent, passionate and free, Eleanor is Karl Marx’s youngest daughter. Among the first women to link the themes of feminism and socialism, she takes part in the workers’ battles and fights for women’s rights and the abolition of child labor. In 1883 she meets Edward Aveling and her life is crushed by a passionate but tragic love story.
"Are you the man that you say you are?". From this quote in the film, Harry Styles and Chris Pine talk about the men characters in the film that are victims of society rules and cultural pressure.
The professor of Audiovisual Translation Pilar Orero, in Rome for Audecon, remarks that media accessibility is a human right that should be always granted.
