- 9 years ago
Actor Alan Rickman makes a rare foray into directing with “A Little Chaos”, in which he also plays Louis XIV and is reunited on-screen with Kate Winslet, with whom he made 1995’s “Sense and Sensibility”.
Set in France in 1682 Winslet plays Sabine De Barra, a strong-willed and talented landscape designer, who is chosen to create one of the main gardens at Rickman’s brand new Palace of Versailles.
Winslet described teaming up with Rickman again as “really, really wonderful.”
“It was really, really wonderful, I have to say. To have known Alan since I was 19, which really is 20 years, it’s really special to have remained in contact throughout those years. And obviously he’s an extraordinary man and extraordinary actor and a wonderful director. So, when the opportunity came around to spend some time with him again in this creative way, it was just tremendously exciting,” she said.
Winslet’s character does not just deal with the challenges of designing and building a new royal garden
