Jenny Beavan Instagram – It’s been a while as I have been catching up with life! And the garden of course .. more to follow BUT the exciting news this week is that “White Bird” the Marc Forster film we made In the Czech Republic during the pandemic two years ago is going to be released at the end of August. I was initially disappointed it didn’t arrive in our cinemas last year but In fact it almost seems more timely this year as its central themes are war, displacement and kindness. There are wonderful stories coming out of kind and brave actions amongst the modern horrors of this world amidst the many wars being waged and White Bird seems representative of many of these stories.
So here is a taste of the amazing time Lauren and I had in Prague making this film. We had a wonderful crew and really good workshops at Barrandov Studios and just living In Prague is always very special! A few photos to set up the Barrandov scene and the endless snow .. what is it about me? Always snowing or raining wherever I go – perhaps I should be sent to visit drought zones …
