Name Kelly Reilly Born Surrey. England. 1977
Background Reilly first wowed audiences on stage. She appeared in Look Back in Anger with David Tennant; played the innocent Elaine alongside Kathleen Turner in The Graduate and showed up her Hollywood co-stars in Sexual Pen/ersity in Chicago. Reilly then became the youngest ever Olivier Nominee for her turn in the Donmar's After Miss Julie. Movies beckoned. She starred in Pride and Pre/udice. The Libertine and as the Quintessential English rose in Stephen Frears’ Mrs Henderson Presents.
What’s she up to now? Cementing her reputation as a star in France. She was one of the Erasmus students in Cedric Klapisch's smash hit film Pot Luck in 2002. alongside Audrey Tatou and Romain Duris. That film's follow up Russian Dolls saw her embellished with a Best Newcomer gong at Cannes. What she says about auditions ‘There was one time when l auditioned to go to drama school and they didn't want me. The whole thing of auditioning at that age was horrible and I didn't think that it would be for me. It was then that I realised I didn't have to go to drama school and all my training took place over eight years in the theatre.‘
Interesting Fact Reilly takes no prisoners during interviews. Halfway through the interview with The List. she unexpectedly stated. ‘You're bored. aren't you!’ Oops. I Russian Dolls is showing at GFII Glasgow from Fri 5 May and Filmhouse, Edinburgh from Fri 19 May. See review. page 44.

this is one of the very best English language films of the year and with a cast like this (Ray Winstone, Danny Huston, Guy Pierce. John Hurt, Emily Watson) it damn well should be.
