At the 18th Zurich Film Festival and now finally on Netflix, there’s the gripping thriller based on true events, The Good Nurse, directed by Academy Award nominee Tobias Lindholm and stars Academy Award winners Jessica Chastain as Amy Loughren and Eddie Redmayne as Charles Cullen. The actor along with the director talk about the many things they didn’t know about Cullen, first of all why he did what he did. Eddie Redmayne describes how he approached the darker aspects of his character as well as his compassionate ones. Charles Cullen had the ability of remaining often invisible and anonymous and the film highlights that.
