Zooming In on an Oscar Win with Christopher Hampton
2021 Oscar-winning writer Christopher Hampton joins Vietnamese-American filmmaker Tiana Alexandra-Silliphant and indie filmmaker Douglas Thompson to relive the challenges and triumphs of creating the cinematic masterpiece, The Father.
It is all butterflies and nerves when we visit with Christopher a few hours before the 2021 Oscar Award telecast, as he describes his two previous experiences being nominated for Atonement, and Dangerous Liaisons. And then, a joyful rendezvous the following day after Christopher has been awarded his second Oscar, along with Florian Zeller and Anthony Hopkins for Writing (Adapted Screenplay), and, Actor In A Leading Role for The Father.
