No, not her. She's a producer not a director.

Here's a clue: the connection is a poetic one.

No more guesses? Two more clues:

1. She directed 007 when he was a poet;

2. His co-star was Gwyneth Paltrow.

No extra points for naming the film as well as the director. Because, in this thread, points don't mean prizes.. :na:

No woman has directed a James Bond film....

I was going to get involved in this but i'm thick as pig sh*t when it comes to producers and poets and actually most things really. apart from Austrian cuisine, gambling and herbal supplements.

director = Christine Jeffs film = sylvia

YYEEESSSS...!!! Sylvia (2003) was a great little film about the relationship between the poets Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath, with fine music by Gabriel Jared, and directed by Christine Jeffs, an excellent director from the Antipodes, which are a group of islands somewhere in the South Pacific.. It starred Gwyneth Paltrow and Daniel Craig; hence the poetical connection with 007..
