00:00Are you emotional tonight? Is this an emotional night for you?
00:03No, not at the moment.
00:05No, you don't want to see me emotional.
00:07I'm absolutely fine.
00:09I'm loving every moment of it.
00:11I guess in some aspect there are lots of feelings.
00:14I wouldn't say I'm emotional.
00:16But I'm very proud of my partner here.
00:19Business partner.
00:21Because I've seen her grow from us shopping and trying to get work together
00:27to now delivering something which I think is monumentally brilliant.
00:30I don't know how hard it is anyway to get your foot through the door
00:34let alone doing a first film.
00:37Let alone that first film being such a huge pressure
00:40and having delivered on such a level as she has.
00:43I just mega, mega repressed and super proud of her.
00:46In one sentence, what did you want to take away from the film?
00:49The desire to come back and watch it again.
00:56Yes.
00:58The absolute overwhelming desire.
01:00Hello. It seems you two are great friends and working together.
01:03How long have you worked together?
01:05Yeah, we've worked on loads of things together for years.
01:09We've got a really lovely shorthand.
01:11We've known each other for the best part of maybe three or four decades.
01:15No, we're not that old.
01:17No, no, no, honestly.
01:19It's just brilliant to get to work with your friends on something that's so huge
01:23and then see your friend deliver something monumentally difficult
01:27as a first film, a movie, a foray into doing that is exceptional.
01:32What a wonderful experience to have.
01:34And how do you feel to sort of say goodbye to the characters of Anima?
01:37Absolutely fine.
01:39And not in a negative way or a clever way.
01:41I just really enjoyed doing it.
01:44I'd do it again in a heartbeat, but my time's up.
01:47And we've had great fun doing them.
01:50So sending loads of love to anybody who's next to come and do it
01:54or if they call us back.
01:56Yeah.
