The two, who met in school as children, have become regular collaborators in recent years.
As a child, Tilda Swinton always felt like an outsider, an observer of others, sometimes even in her own family. One day at the British boarding school she loathed, she met another girl, Joanna Hogg, who shared a similar worldview.
“We enjoyed the mutual experience of sharing awareness about the energy of groups, the unspoken tendencies of other people,” she says. “We were always feeling between our fingers and our thumbs the metal of the kind of work we’re creating now.” In 2019, more than 30 years after their last film collaboration, the two reunited on Hogg’s semi-autobiographical movie “The Souvenir.” Swinton played Rosalind, a stand-in for Hogg’s mother and Hogg cast Swinton’s daughter, Honor Swinton Byrne to play her own alter ego, Julie. They reunited for a sequel last year.
“The genre aspect is very tied into the worries that Julie has and the fabric of their relationship,” Hogg says. “They’re not different things.”“I always worried about my mother and saw her as fragile, but maybe I just perceived her as that and then she became really fragile, which brought out the eternal daughter in me,” Hogg says. “It was always strong, but it intensified then. The core of the film is about grief – you can feel the loss when someone’s still alive.
