“I had always loved the book, it’s kind of a national treasure,” declares Emily Mortimer, director of the three-part limited series “The Pursuit of Love” on Amazon Prime. “I read it first in my late teens and I remembered loving it. When I was approached and asked to adapt it, I knew I wanted to read it again. But a little bit of me was thinking, ‘Does the world really need another costume drama in a big house in the English countryside?’ I re-read it and I was so excited by the novel. It felt incredibly fresh and relevant.” We talked to Mortimer as part of our “Meet the Experts” TV directors panel. Watch our exclusive video interview above.
“The Pursuit of Love” is adapted from a novel of the same name by Nancy Mitford. It’s centered on two cousins navigating their lives and friendship, as they seek different things in life.
