Put five actresses on set with a female director and you get — well, a pretty calm set
LA Times“There was a sense of how far we’ve come. There was such a sense of investment,” director Dearbhla Walsh says of the lack of clashing egos on the “Bad Sisters” set. “In a way, those stories felt very close to me because they’re about people on the edge,” says Walsh, whose mother made ends meet by transforming their home into a bustling bed and breakfast. “I had a very rich upbringing in the sense of a community and the dysfunction and perception.” For Walsh, though, Apple TV+’s suburban revenge thriller, “Bad Sisters,” an adaptation of the Belgian series “Clan,” co-written and starring actor-writer Sharon Horgan, was even nearer to home. Not only was “Bad Sisters” shot in Ireland’s capital city, Dublin, but it’s the saga of the tight-knit Garvey sisters, four of whom plot to murder the fifth’s corrosively sadistic husband.
