Lady Bird 2017
Greta Gerwig’s Oscar-winning indie comedy drama starred Saoirse Ronan and Laurie Metcalf as a warring mother and daughter.
While it just missed out on Clare’s Hippodrome shortlist, it’s one of her all-time favourites and she loves celebrating it.
“I absolutely loved Lady Bird, and I was thrilled when the trailer came out for Film4, and they used Happy Birthday, so I consider myself to be involved in an Oscar-winning movie based on that very loose connection,” Clare smiled.
“I loved the relationship between her and her mother, and the moment she jumps out of the car, of her wanting to escape the tension.
“I think our generation of parents are all very caught up in wanting to be our children’s friends, and there’s something to be said for that but they do really need parents, they need boundaries and to know where you stand, and sometimes that makes you really unpopular.
“I absolutely loved this film.”
