Behind the Camera with "Fly Me to the Moon" Screenwriter Rose Gilroy

St. Helena’s Cameo Cinema presents ‘Behind the Camera’ with Rose Gilroy, screenwriter of the $100 million Apple-acquired script 'Fly Me To The Moon. She will be in attendance on July 23 for a screening and discussion of her film, which marks her first script to be set up and sold at a studio. Scarlett Johansson produced alongside Jonathan Lia and Keenan Flynn through their These Pictures production company. “The totally original script by Rose Gilroy was what excited me most about this film. explained Johansson “It is a big picture movie that feels both nostalgic and so modern and the kind of movie I'm always reaching for that you rarely get to see in theaters these days.” Gilroy recently garnered a spot on the 2023 Variety '10 Screenwriters to Watch' list. Additionally her wilderness thriller, “The Pack,” is in development with Alexander Skarsgård set to direct and co-star with Florence Pugh. FLY ME TO THE MOON is a sharp, stylish comedy-drama set against the high-stakes backdrop of NASA’s historic Apollo 11 moon landing.

From the initial concept to the polished final product, Behind the Camera offers a window into the craft that transforms compelling narratives into cinematic art. Earlier guests have included Sofia Coppola (Priscilla); David Hemingson (The Holdovers); Ruth de Jong (Oppenheimer); and Roman Coppola and Jennifer Lurches (Asteroid City).
