Ronan has become a producer with the new drama The Outrun, in which she also stars, based on the prizewinning 2016 memoir by Amy Liptrot
The outrun is a literal thing, a field left wild on the edge of a farm. In the Orkneys, the wild, 70-island archipelago off the northern tip of Scotland , it often ends at a cliff face. So the outrun is also a metaphorical thing, the actor Saoirse Ronan said during a video chat this week: “a place where your truer self is able to run free, but with an element of danger to it – you’re dancing on a precipice.
“For better and for worse, Amy’s dad really shaped her, and we had to honour that,” Ronan says. “As a child, you want to make your parent happy, and you feel fundamentally it’s your fault that you’re not. Long before you can fully comprehend their mental illness, an emotional scarring can occur that you carry with you your whole life.
And after 22 years of working on sets, Ronan says, “I know myself really well. My personal and professional lives feel like they’re in harmony with one another, in a way that feels purposeful. And the people I’m working with are my husband and friends, so we can creatively do a deep dive.”
