Before I Go To Sleep (2014) with author S J Watson

Hello! Welcome to this special bonus episode of the audio commentary podcast hosted by me, David Hughes. For this episode, we thought we'd try something different: instead of a commentary by a filmmaker, we decided to ask author S J Watson to talk us through the 2014 film adaptation of his novel Before I Go To Sleep.  Watson didn't have much to do with the film, which stars Nicole Kidman, Colin Firth and Mark Strong, which gives the author a fascinating insider/outsider perspective. Needless to say, we are grateful to the author for agreeing to record the commentary – and if you like the film, we suggest you read the source novel and his latest book, Final Cut, which is about a documentary filmmaker visiting an English coastal town with a disturbing connection to her own past. Buy it from Hive because Amazon has enough customers. As always, you can listen as a podcast, or cue it up to the film, which – thanks to JustWatch – you can find here (UK) or here (US). Comments? Feedback? Suggestions? Email David *at * Rogue-Commentary *dot* com or send us a tweet. We have lots of exciting episodes in the works, so if you like what you hear – or just the idea – please subscribe, and remember to rate us wherever you hear this podcast – it'll really help us to keep going. Oh, and follow us on Twitter and/or Instagram to stay up-to-date on our forthcoming releases. Thanks for listening! Hosted by David Hughes. Produced by Sam Ibrahim. Music by Olli Oja.
