Episode # 282 The Lost Daughter with Hana Walker Brown and Jen Offord

Jen Offord (Standard Issue Podcast, author The Year of the Robin) and Hana Walker Brown (Broccoli Productions, author A Delicate Game) return to Flixwatcher remotely to review Jen’s choice The Lost Daughter.   The Lost Daughter is a 2021 drama, based on the Elena Ferrante novel of the same name and directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal (her directorial debut). It stars Olivia Coleman as Leda, a university professor and translator on holiday in Greece. One day on the beach she meets Nina (Dakota Johnson) a young mother, when Nina’s three-year-old daughter goes missing for a short period Nina is faced with her own memories and feelings of being a mother, told in flashbacks with Jessie Buckley playing the young Leda. Paul Mescal, Peter Sarsgaard and Ed Harris also co-star. Feelings about The Lost Daughter were mixed but there is no doubt about the powerhouse of acting on show - particularly from Coleman and Buckley playing Leda at different times of her life. The Lost Daughter is a bold choice by Gyllenhaal and Flixwatcher and guests look forward to seeing what she directs next. The Lost Daughter scored fairly highly on recommendability but with a runtime of two hours the repeat viewing scores were lower to give an overall rating of 3.39.   [supsystic-tables id=294] Episode #282 Crew Links Thanks to Episode #282 Crew of Hana Walker Brown (@HWalker_Brown) and Jen Offord (@inspireajen) Find their Websites online at https://twitter.com/broccolicontent And at https://twitter.com/hodderbooks And at https://linktr.ee/hana_walker_brown And at https://linktr.ee/JenOfford And at https://twitter.com/llmonts And at https://twitter.com/standardissueUK Please make sure you give them some love   More about The Lost Daughter For more info on The Lost Daughter, you can visit The Lost Daughter IMDb page here or The Lost Daughter Rotten Tomatoes page here.
