Embeth Davidtz: Her Bold Second Act with ‘Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight’


Listen Later

What does it take to step into a bold second act? In this episode of The Shaw Report, Jessica sits down with actor-turned-director Embeth Davidtz to talk about her powerful directorial debut Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight (in theaters July 11). Based on Alexandra Fuller’s memoir, the film explores colonial Zimbabwe through the eyes of a child—raw, unflinching, and deeply human. Embeth shares how six years of writing and self-doubt turned into an extraordinary directorial journey, the lessons she carried from decades on set, and what it means to embrace fear as fuel for reinvention.
