Popcorn Podcast welcomes British director – and regency-era film fan – Emma Holly Jones to chat about her new movie Mr Malcolm's List. The period-set romantic comedy puts a clever twist on the genre as a scorned woman (Zawe Ashton) enlists a friend (Freida Pinto) to exact revenge on London's most eligible bachelor, the picky Mr Malcolm (Sope Dìrísù). What unfolds is a game of intrigue with women leading the charge. Jones shares what else sets her first feature apart from its contemporaries and why it was important to challenge the historical inaccuracies of the genre with diverse representation. We hope you enjoy this special episode of Popcorn Podcast.
