‘The Power Of The Dog’ Director Jane Campion On Women Filmmakers: “Once You Give Them A Chance, There’s No Stopping Them” — Venice Film Festival

stars Benedict Cumberbatch as a brutal, wealthy rancher who inspires fear and awe in those around him until he finds himself exposed to the possibility of love. Also starring are Jesse Plemons, Kirsten Dunst and Kodi Smit-McPhee.

“I think the girls are doing very well,” the filmmaker said, citing the recent successes of Oscar winner Chloe Zhao and Palme d’Or winner Julia Ducournau. Campion said of her inspiration and why she chose to focus on a male centric story: “I don’t calculate in terms of gender. I read this book and thought it was an amazing piece of literature…This is a very deep piece that works on the psyche.”

Kirsten Dunst said that she and Cumberbatch kept their distance on set and barely spoke to each other, out of design.
