DP/30 in Cannes: Carol, Phyllis Nagy

She has been with the story from the first notion of making the Patricia Highsmith (“Pat“ to her) novel into a feature film. More than a decade later, this veteran writer of stage and screen, has finally seen her vision come to the screen... and to rave reviews at Cannes to boot. Nagy spoke to David Poland about the film, its journey, her journey, and the politics of being a woman and a lesbian in the show business culture.
