Olivia Colman has heaped praise on her Tyrannosaur director Paddy Considine.
The actress stars in Considine's directorial debut, a movie that sees her star alongside Peter Mullan and Eddie Marsan, which is already being raved about by the critics.
When asked by FemaleFirst what she thought of Considine as a filmmaker said: "Extraordinary! And I can't imagine anyone ever being better than him ever again. He really gets it and he know exactly what to say to actors.
It seems that a lot of people who become directors they don't know how to do it; they might know the technical side and what the camera needs to do but talking to actors it's like... you have to wing it and you are on your own.
But it felt like he was really with you and he understood exactly what it felt like, he was extraordinary.
"We all know that he is an incredible and it turns out that he is even better at directing."
Tyrannosaur sees Colman movie away from the comedy roles that we are use to seeing her in as she delivers a tour de force performance in the movie.
And we are going to be seeing plenty more of her in the new year as she is set to play Carol Thatcher in The Iron Lady, which also stars Meryl Streep and Jim Broadbent.
Tyrannosaur is out now.
