The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry tells the story of a man who starts walking… and doesn’t stop walking. To mark its release, we had the pleasure of speaking to that very man, as we caught up with Jim Broadbent, who takes on the eponymous lead role. He was paired with British screen legend Penelope Wilton, who plays Maureen Fry, the former’s wife. We then chatted to the author of the novel the book is based upon, Rachel Joyce, who also penned the screenplay.
We discussed the project, and Broadbent’s history with the novel it is based upon, and with the author, as Joyce played his daughter on stage 30 years ago. We discuss the adaptation process, the importance of good supporting roles, and of course, walking. Be sure to watch both interviews in their entirety below.
