015 | Kathleen Hepburn (Never Steady Never Still)

Posted on September 15, 2015March 21, 2024 By Sammy Younan No Comments on 015 | Kathleen Hepburn (Never Steady Never Still)

My Summer Lair Chapter #15: Do You Know How Hard It Is To Google Kathleen Hepburn?

Google kept asking me if I meant Katharine Hepburn (which would be a sweet interview except for that whole dead limitation…).

Kathleen is not only alive she’s armed with an infectious curiosity, a natural calm…probably her natural disposition, being from B.C. or from hanging out in nature…all of those? You can decide.

A recent My Summer Lair guest was director Sherren Lee who discussed Benjamin her TIFF 2015 short. Written by Kathleen Hepburn; Sherren suggested I talk to Kathleen about Benjamin but also her directorial TIFF effort Never Steady Never Still. To quote Tone Lōc: “Let’s Do It.”

As for Never Steady Never Still from the TIFF website: “A troubled young man is driven back to his childhood home by a horrible mistake — and discovers that he is not alone in his struggle. Never Steady, Never Still is a thundering whisper that beautifully captures the solace of family and home.”
