Imogen Poots

Back To One - A podcast by Filmmaker Magazine - Tuesdays

If you didn't know Imogen Poots was British, it is understandable. Few young actors transform so chameleon-like, role-to-role, applying accents so skillfully. I was first wowed by her in Peter Bogdanovich's "She's Funny That Way" and then I actually didn't even know it was her in "Green Room" until I saw the credits. She floored me again in "Frank and Lola" opposite Michael Shannon, in an entirely different kind of role. Now she plays a drifter with questionable parenting skills, who steers into escalating trouble in “Mobile Homes,” and by the end of the movie her performance wrecked me. In this half hour she lifts the hood on her craft and we get to peek in. (“Mobile Homes” is out now on VOD and digital)
