Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Young Woman and the Sea tells the incredible true story of Gertrude "Trudy" Ederle, a competitive American swimmer. A champion swimmer she won a gold medal in the 1924 Olympics. Trudy then went on to cement herself in history as the first woman to swim across the English Channel, 21 miles total, in 1926.
Screen Rant interviewed stars Daisy Ridley and Tilda Cobham-Hervey about their new movie Young Woman and the Sea. Ridley explained the training process to prepare for the physical aspects of the role and shared her pride in being able to tell this story. Cobham-Hervey discussed the bond between the sisters being the heart of the movie and exploring the non-glamorous side of the 1920s.
So being part of this is really wonderful to be able to be part of the group that tells the story of this amazing woman. In terms of executive producer, I came in as an actor, but I had feelings about, I loved the script, but I wanted the story to really be about the sisters and the love that they have for each other. So I was heard and I was embraced as a partner, and I was given that title, which was amazing.
Tilda Cobham-Hervey: Yeah, so I feel like Meg is sort of there to represent what it was like for women at that time in society. She's the one that doesn't have the extraordinary talent and has to sort of live a life of what's expected of women at that time. She's incredibly close to Trudy, very supportive. I mean, they had their ups and downs as sisters still, but I just loved seeing that bond.
Daisy Ridley: I could swim, but the first swimming test I did with Siobhan, who coached us, I swam half of a 20 meter pool and stood up and was like, Can't do it. Can't do it. So yeah, I was not really a swimmer. So it was three months of intensive training and then when we were filming, we were also training.
Tilda Cobham-Hervey: I feel like the 1920s is such a period of change, and I feel like particularly for women. It's beautiful to be a part of that time period. The production design and the costumes, that was so exciting to sort of see all of that come to life. But yeah, I just feel like it's a perfect, her swim represents so much more than just the swim at that time.
