Steve Coogan Spent Weeks Getting Comfortable With His Two Penguin Co-Stars in ‘The Penguin Lessons’: ‘They Disarm You’
Steve Coogan spent weeks establishing a relationship with two penguins in order to film the new dramedy 'The Penguin Lessons.'
The movie is set in a turbulent period in Argentina’s history, one that saw the country ruled by a military dictatorship that tortured and killed political dissidents. After the bird reminds him of the empathy he lost touch with, he starts to encourage his young pupils to reacquaint themselves with their moral compass, and to use their privilege for good. “The Penguin Lessons” was directed by Peter Cattaneo, an expert at mixing humor and heart in films like “The Full Monty,” and produced outside the studio system.
