Adolescence’s Director Told Me How Filming The Netflix Series Was ‘Like Groundhog Day,’ And Now I’m Seeing The Similarities To The Bill Murray Classic
Following the thrilling news of my Primetime Emmy Award nomination for our series, ‘Adolescence’, I had the pleasure of chatting with Philip Barantini. Our conversation ranged from the show’s influence on us as parents of young kids to the unique challenges of filming each episode in a single take.
When I inquired about handling mistakes during takes, Barantini humorously compared it to the predicament Bill Murray found himself in during ‘Groundhog Day’. It was an enlightening exchange that underscored the intricate process behind bringing our story to life.
