In this extra episode of The Curzon Film Podcast we have a change of pace and tread the boards with Phyllida Lloyd (Mamma Mia, The Iron Lady), to discuss her production of Julius Caesar, which will soon be playing in Curzon Cinema screens. Phyllida speaks about the all-female cast she has put together, as well as working with new young talent, alongside legends like Harriet Walter.
