The Queen of My Dreams: Exclusive Interview with Amrit Kaur
Putting the Toronto International Film Festival in our rearview, Allison sat down to chat over Zoom with The Queen of My Dreams actress Amrit Kaur about her cultural and cinematic influences, the complicated nature of arranged marriage, and using film to inspire conversation.
In this unique film, when Azra’s mother, Mariam (Nimra Buch, Polite Society), discovers Azra about to lock lips with a female friend on her twelfth birthday, she slowly cuts her out of bonding activities. Mariam’s mother, Amira (Gul-e-Rana), gives up on her when she realizes she was manipulated into endorsing her daughter’s chosen love interest as an “arranged” marriage. Both experiences give credence to an outdated cultural perception of ethics that advances over time. Azra’s father, Hassan (Hamza Haq), suddenly passes away, and she is drawn to Pakistan where not much has changed since her mother’s time there. The Queen of My Dreams tells a familiar narrative through a uniquely Pakistani lens with fantastic acting and singularly creative filmmaking.
Amrit Kaur has a bright future ahead, and Allison can’t wait for beloved show The Sex Life of College Girls to finally return when the strike comes to a close. The Queen of My Dreams premiered at 2023's Toronto International Film Festival.

    I thought the film ended with the only possible conclusions. Everyone ended up with nothing. Exactly correct. Sydney was basically a sweet person whose hesitant entrance into voyeurism morphs into obsession. While she gets vengeance and sex with her lust object ultimately she is left empty handed with the loss of her partner and the real prospect of loneliness for a long time. The other two get the just reward for their greed. It made a lot of sense to me therefore that the film ended the way it did

Psychologically, she will express herself in different ways to express her trauma. And he will also use his imagination to evade or manifest what happens to him. I only saw the trailer but the excellent interpretation of this acting promise accompanied by a great one like Simon Baker will go a long way. Congratulations!!!

    Even with the poor quality audio this interview is a real treat. I love the way Simon encourages Julia to speak and express herself. Even the big question at 22:18 Simon says to her "you've got it" and she gives a great answer. Then at 24:06 when asked about upcoming projects Julia answers and looks to Simon for advice, he says "that's all they need to know", then he says he's going back to Australia to start shooting a movie in about three weeks. Simon seems to have mentor qualities that bring out the best in young inexperienced actors including Chloe Moretz, Chris Pine and Zac Efron in 'The Guardian' and more recently Samson Coulter and Ben Spence in 'Breath'. Also Jacob Junior Nayinggul in 'High Ground'.

      She's a 14 - 15 yr old kid who was 13 when they shot the film and she's the main protagonist of the movie which has a very adult theme, so it probably looks childish on your part to criticize this young actress who has already been getting rave reviews for her portrayal of Blaze!
