One other thing happening in London is an unusual movie produced and directed by Ralph Fiennes. He is also the star. It's called "The Invisible Woman." Mr. Fiennes plays Charles Dickens, a man whose writings were so popular they were serialized in newspapers and gobbled up by people almost every day. His admirers did not have to wait for each finished Dickens book between hard covers. But Fiennes plays a Dickens most people are unaware of. This movie deals with the fact that in late middle-age, Dickens left his wife for an 18-year-old, who became his mistress. She will be played by Felicity Jones. Dickens lived with this young woman for the last 15 years of his life and never bothered to divorce his spouse, who had borne him ten children! Dickens left his considerable fortune to the mistress, Nelly Ternan. The movie is told from her point of view. Kristin Scott Thomas also stars as Nelly's mother. And Michelle Fairley, now a big name via HBO's "Game of Thrones," is also in the cast.
It is difficult to direct oneself, Mr. Fiennes has discovered. So, during filming, Fiennes gathers a "tribe of women," around the monitor--producer Gabrielle Tana, the dialect coach, the actresses, and the screenwriter, Abi Morgan, who helped Fiennes develop the story, from Claire Tomalin's book. They all look at what's been done, offer opinions and suggestions. Fiennes listens closely to his ladies. He calls them "my harem." I don't think Fiennes and his cohorts have yet made a deal for production-distribution. They are toiling on a literary work of art. (Hey, Harvey Weinstein, you might want to latch onto this project.)
