Twilight (2008): A Conversation with Catherine Hardwicke

In anticipation of our first live podcast event where we will be revisiting the iconic Twilight (2008), we had the absolute pleasure to speak with director Catherine Hardwicke. Architect of this cultural phenomenon, Catherine recounts how she landed the role and the casting process that launched the careers of its stars, Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson. In this hour-long interview, we explore Catherine's journey into filmmaking as well as the distinct challenges of a female director in the industry, especially with directing blockbusters. Sadly as the only female director of the Twilight saga, we get an insight into just how rich stories can be that target an overlooked female audience and capture those first moments we all experience as when we come of age. Expect some golden  stories & for your Twilight nostalgia to be reignited!
