Emma Thompson Gushes Over Working With Finnish Crew on ‘The Fisherwoman’: ‘They Cared for Us, and They Showed Us Where the Best Bars Were’


Emma Thompson praises Finnish crew in an open letter detailing their work on thriller ‘The Fisherwoman,’ directed by Brian Kirk and set in Minnesota.

In an emotional letter shared with local newspaper Helsingin Sanomat, the actor detailed her experience working on Brian Kirk’s upcoming action thriller “ The Fisherwoman. I had no idea how lucky I was but upon arrival in Koli, greeted by the piney, snow-laden sentinels that guard that magical hillside, I started to sense what a huge privilege and adventure this was to become,” she wrote. “I would encourage colleagues in my industry with all my heart to locate productions here – if you need dramatic landscape, it is here, if you need brave-hearted, highly sensitive and indomitable crew people, they are here, if you need comfort and a homely life, it is here,” added the actor.
