Jessie Buckley’s Oscar Aspirations
The Irish actor Jessie Buckley is a strong contender for an Academy Award after winning a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama for her role as William Shakespeare’s wife in “Hamnet,” which also won Best Film. Northern Ireland-born author Maggie O’Farrell, the writer of the novel on which the film is based, may also receive recognition as a co-writer of the screenplay. “Hamnet” was co-produced by Steven Spielberg, who praised O’Farrell’s work during the Golden Globes.
