Eddie on his old school days in Great British Education Magazine 2020 edition

Eddie Redmayne is featured in the Great British Education Magazine 2020 edition.

In the interview, he shares his memories of his time at ETON and Cambridge.

(pages 28-30)

"I had the greatest drama teacher I could ever have wished for in

Simon Dormandy. He treated us like professionals and that kind of

respect and guidance makes you want to take things seriously..." 

With Hannah at the UK premiere of 'Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald'

"Education, for me, became the platform for everything in

adult life... while that passion, interest, confidence, and

desire to move into drama partly came from inside, it was

also from the influences I had around me at school."

With Hannah at the LFF premiere of The Aeronauts and with Felicity Jones and

Stephen & Jane Hawking at the premiere of The Theory of Everything in London.

 “Good schooling gives you the desire to hunt out,

learn and embrace everything that’s around you.”

"...school provides you with a vital platform

for what you choose to build on top."

BTS videos for The Trial of the Chicago 7 from Netflix Film Club

"The Trial of the Chicago 7 is not a documentary, it's a painting

where journalism is a photograph. It's not as much about 1968

as it is about today." - Aaron Sorkin

Eddie was asked about his approach of playing Tom Hayden. 

The video is edited, zooming on Eddie's part of the screen.

For Eddie Redmayne, who plays Hayden, it was all on the page. “Hayden

had an extraordinary facility with speech, but with a quiet integrity that

drew people toward him,” the actor said of the leader of the protests.

Eddie on being cast in The Trial Of The Chicago 7: "It was genuinely

one of those moments when the script arrived that it sort of felt

too good to be true. And I kind of said yes before reading the thing."

"There’s a sort of sadness, I found, when the words are that good.

There was a slight desperation that, when the words are that good,

they can be heaved around. They can be played in a thousand

different ways ...

I found this very unique feeling on “Chicago 7,” going home at

night. “Oh, I don’t get to say those again.” And the weird thing

with jobs, you find that years later, occasionally, walking down

the street, and the odd line from something will have remained.

It tends to be something that gave you joy in the playing of it."

Congratulations to the cast of THE TRIAL OF THE CHICAGO 7 for

IFP’s inaugural Gotham Awards Ensemble Tribute!

In a newly created honor, the 30th IFP Gotham Awards saluted

The Trial of the Chicago 7 with the Ensemble Tribute.

The show was streamed live from Ciprian Wall Street tonight

(January 11, 2021).

The cast including Eddie Redmayne, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Jeremy Strong, and

Sacha Baron Cohen recorded a message cut together from various locations.

“Half a century after the events of ‘The Trial of the Chicago 7,’ peaceful

protestors are again being met with tear gas…political gridlocks continue

to plague our own leaders,

 The echoes have been unmistakable, but if nothing else, they remind

us of the work that still has to be done in bridging the divide.

‘The Trial of the Chicago 7’ happened then but it’s happening

now and it’s destined to keep happening until America lives up

to its ideal of liberty and justice for all.” - Video here

The live stream also included a BTS video with cast interviews,

the same that Netflix shared recently - the video is here.
