Hannah Murray: Passage Reading — The Make-Believe

In this passage episode, Hannah reads from the opening chapter of her memoir The Make Believe. A scene from the set of the film Detroit, where she played a victim of sexual assault in one of the most physically and emotionally gruelling shoots of her career. Hannah describes having her dress ripped from her body, take after take, night after night, and the moment she realised that however much her mind knew it was pretend, her body didn't. Freya and Hannah then discuss the physical and emotional cost of playing dark material repeatedly, what it means to access your own trauma on screen, and what Hannah's experience on Detroit set in motion.🎥 WATCH the full episode here📘 Buy Hannah Murray's The Make Believe📕 Pre-order Freya's debut novel: A Real Piece of Work💛 Follow @freybromley on Instagram for updates and to ask your questions 📚 Join Freya's newsletter at freyabromley.substack.com for behind the scenes thoughts 🎙️ And hit subscribe wherever you get your podcasts Hosted on Acast.
