We based the look of the film on the paintings by John William Waterhouse and we were very lucky to find an actress with beautiful long red hair that looked very like his model in the boat. The process of filming the words has renewed my appreciation of the poem and the whole thing has been a very rewarding experience. It is a poem which touches many people's hearts. Hi Nadeem
