What a wonderful night - the inspirational #SimoneYoung back in Sydney where she belongs conducting the incredible @sydneysymphonyorchestra and @DanielRohn for a gala night of Tchaikovsky, Dvorak and a new piece by Connor D’Netto. Wow!
So excited at the fabulous programme of films in the new #alliancefrenchfilmfestival @palacecinemas . Had a sneak peek of #TheGodmother with the fantastic @isabelle.huppert. Brilliant ! Can’t wait to see Depardieu play chess in Fahim, the Little Chess Prince and @kristinscottthomas in Final Set. Very apt as we watch @australian_open2021 . And there are so many more. Book now...
Thinking of the family I never knew on this #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay. Especially Ida Hoffer whose photo I grew up with without knowing what she had suffered. Ida was murdered with her sisters Laura and Klara -all three shot in the neck in front of a pit in Maly Trostinec by the Nazis. They were my great aunts. I found them researching my book #TheWritingOnTheWall. Today and every day I think of you.
An honour to talk to the very fun and fascinating Miranda Tapsell @misstap with a fabulous shoot too in the January issue of @womensweeklymag . Thanks to stylist extraordinaire @mattiecronan and photographer maestro @brewbevanphoto . Watch Miranda shine in #thedrymovie
Great to talk to the brilliant @naomiwatts for the January issue of @womensweeklymag, on sale now. Read the story then head out on Jan 21 to see Naomi play @samjbloom in the poignant and uplifting #PenguinBloom movie. Shot in Sydney - a story of healing, love and immense courage.
The past two years meeting @aminata_conteh_biger @lezardjaune and your family have been very special and we now have a lifelong bond. I am humbled by your courage and determination to make huge changes in the world Amii. It was an honour to work on #RisingHeart with you. Let’s get that hospital built @aminatafoundation ...
