Producer and actor Sadie Frost (“Dracula”), who made her feature directorial debut with a documentary on British fashion designer Mary Quant, is now training her lens on another British cultural icon.
“Twiggy” will be a feature-length documentary on Quant’s contemporary Lesley Lawson, better-known by her nickname Twiggy. It will trace her journey from her working-class childhood in northwest London, through to her international stardom as a celebrity model, and her career as an actor, singer, fashion designer, writer and TV presenter. This will be the first time Twiggy’s story has been told in full and with her support.
Studio Soho’s international sales arm is launching the project for worldwide presales at Cannes. Nick Hamson will produce for Soho Talent, part of the Film Soho group, and Simon Jones for Frost’s new production company Reel Time. Reel Time’s executive producer is Andrew Green.
