在这部寻梦旅伴剧情片中,《唐顿庄园》编剧朱利安·费罗斯、演员伊丽莎白·麦戈文以及导演迈克尔·恩格勒确认合作新片[监护人](The Chaperone,暂译)。故事讲述上世纪20年代的纽约,一个女人(伊丽莎白·麦戈文饰)培养15岁学跳舞的女孩(茱莉亚·古丹妮·泰勒斯饰)成为明星。该片将在戛纳电影节上寻找国际买家。
In this handsome period piece perfectly suited for cinephiles of all stripes, director Michael Engler (Downton Abbey, 30 Rock, Six Feet Under) and screenwriter Julian Fellowes (Downton Abbey, Gosford Park) bring a fascinating slice of pre-Hollywood history to light in a coming-of-age story centering on the relationship between the young, free-spirited and soon-to-be international screen starlet Louise Brooks (a riveting, high-intensity Haley Lu Richardson) and her tee-totalling chaperone (a wonderfully nuanced Elizabeth McGovern). On their journey from the conservative confines of Wichita Kansas to the flash and sizzle of New York City, both women are driven by a kindred desire for self-discovery and liberation from the past. Based on the book by Laura Moriarty and anchored by a superb supporting cast (Miranda Otto, Géza Röhrig, and Blythe Danner in a key cameo), The Chaperone is a sensitive, resonant, and illuminating tale of women's lives in the early 20th century.
