Emma Corrin And Jack O’Connell – The Stars Of “Lady Chatterley’s Lover” – Answer BuzzFeed UK’s Burning Questions

Today, Laure De Clermont-Tonnere’s adaptation of Lady Chatterley’s Lover starring Emma Corrin and Jack O’Connell hit cinemas, and let’s just say, you don’t want to miss this one!

What’s the last book you read?

Jack: I’ve just read a great one! It’s non-fiction and it’s nothing to do with this, but it’s called The Catalpa Rescue. A load of Irish lads get arrested and are sent to Australian as part of one of the first penal colonies. Really fascinating stuff!

Emma: I recently read an autobiography by an American photographer called Sally Mann, which is beautifully written. Her life’s incredible!

And do you listen to podcasts? If so, which ones?

Emma: There’s a slow news podcast called Tortoise, and they do these really good true crime podcasts. There was one called “Sweet Bobby” about a really good catfishing story that’s unbelievable! I couldn’t stop listening, it’s wild. Anything true crime, I love.

Jack: Have you heard of Blindboy Boatclub?

Emma: (Laughs) I knew you’d say this.

Jack: He’s great, man. Very educational, very smart. There’s no real theme throughout, he just picks interesting topics. I can’t recommend it enough.

Emma: He does really good intros.

Jack: Are you still on them?

Emma: Yeah!

Jack: He’s fucking brilliant.

Emma: He’ll be like, ‘Good evening ya bawling bowl of banshees. How ya doing?’

(Jack laughs)

What’s your karaoke song?

Jack: Spandau Ballet, “Gold”.

Emma: That’s a great one!

Jack: Thank you.

Emma: Probably Cher, “Believe”.

Do you have a wardrobe malfunction story?

Emma: Well we had quite a lot on set, because of all the intimate stuff. Merkins… Y’know someone stole them?

Jack: Nah, stop.

Emma: They lost both of our merkins. They just vanished.

Jack: Really?

Emma: They vanished from the makeup trailer, we don’t know where they are. So, if you’re out there and you’ve stolen them…

Jack: Have you checked eBay?

Emma: (Laughs) Genuinely, someone should. We don’t know where they are! Do you not know about this?

Jack: That’s my wardrobe malfunction story, there you go.

What’s the first film you remember seeing in the cinema?

Emma: Oh my God, do you remember yours, Jack?

Jack: Yeah, Pocahontas. I don’t know why.

Emma: I really don’t remember, but that’s a good one.

Sam: How did that affect you, Jack?

Jack: Deeply.

Emma: It changed everything.

Jack: Emotionally, psychologically, spiritually…

Emma: Physically.

And what’s the first album you ever bought?

(Jack smiles)

Sam: Is it embarrassing?

Jack: No, I’m quite proud of it. It was cassette… That’s probably embarrassing. It was a cassette of D12 with Eminem, and my dad was very pissed off to hear the contents of it. Lots of ‘effin and jeffin.

Emma: Mine was probably something really embarrassing like Backstreet Boys, or do you remember Now albums? Like Now 2001 or something, or Now Let’s Party. I definitely had that.

What is your comfort film?

Jack: Pocahontas. Still.

Emma: (Laughs) I’d say You’ve Got Mail, Meg Ryan. It’s a very Autumn film!

Which job would you be terrible at?

Emma: Anything at a desk.

Sam: So my job?

Emma: (Laughs) Yeah, anything that required me to sit still for more than three minutes. Or a surgeon, I’d probably be a terrible surgeon. I’m really squeamish.

Jack: Cool job though.

Emma: Really cool job.

Jack: I’d be a shit professional darts player. I just haven’t got a steady hand. (Raises hand) That’s pretty steady for me.

Emma: (Raises hand too) I’d be great at darts.

Jack: Yeah, you’d be mint at darts.

Sam: I can’t wait for when you do a movie all about darts.

Emma: Or when I throw it all in for darts?

What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given?

Jack: Don’t be nervous, have a purpose – Ian Brown, 2009. You can apply it anywhere.

Emma: So as long ad you know what you’re gonna say or do, you won’t be nervous?

Jack: Exactly. If you do it in a Mancunian accent, as well, it works even better.

Who’s a person that has made you starstruck?

Emma: Oh, I saw Cate Blanchett in Telluride and I tripped over a bench… My publicist is laughing now cos she was there. I had a huge bruise on my leg afterwards. Huge.

Sam: I feel that’s an appropriate response to an interaction with Cate Blanchett.

Emma: Well we didn’t have any interaction, but she was very close, about as close as we are now. There was a bench between us, and I went to say hi, and then fell over it. So the dream situation really.

Jack: I saw Jamie Carragher last night – I get starstruck for footballers, y’know? I had to say “eh up”, and he was dead sound about it. We had a nice handshake and then just kept it moving cos I did wanna harangue the guy.

Who’s your style icon?

Emma: Tilda Swinton. She floats. She’s elegance. She’s grace.

Jack: Mike Skinner, probably because I grew up with The Streets. I always liked their music videos and his clobber. I think I’m still stuck in that time period. I didn’t pick this (gestures to outfit), someone picked this for me.

What’s something about the movie industry you wish you could change?

Emma: Where to start.

Jack: I’d like it to be more accessible to the underprivileged and to all communities. It’s a very expensive avenue to pursue, but it doesn’t have to be like that.

Emma: Queer roles, but good queer roles, y’know?

And finally, why should we go and see Lady Chatterley’s Lover?

Jack: It’s good stuff, init?

Emma: It’s good craic. I think it’s a really unique tale about love and people who really fight for what they want. Also, I think Laure is such a visionary, and the way we all worked to portray sex on screen was quite singular. I think we’ve done something quite bold and quite different!
