things could have been different - if you'd been on the set for afterlife.
if you're not prejudiced against older women (20s)
...afterlife, directed by Alison Peebles, is an intimate story written by Andrea Gibb for her sister, who has Down's syndrome...As an unscrupulous tabloid snake rediscovering his family, McKidd [lead actor] tunes his performance to harmonise with an equally forceful and charismatic actor, Paula Sage, who plays his sister. Gibb and Peebles fought hard to cast an actor with Down's syndrome, resisting pressure to rewrite the part to fit a "prettier disability", as McKidd explains.
"None of us knew what Paula would be capable of," he says. "Even she didn't know whether she'd freeze or rise to the attention, but she became a real diva in the best possible sense. She loved the fact that all the men were asking her if she'd like a cup of tea, what clothes she'd like to wear, and what props. Paula likes her boys"...
