Sir Kenneth Branagh has praised "brilliant" child actor Jude Hill, who stars in his semi-autobiographical film Belfast, and revealed the special bond the youngster enjoyed with co-star Judi Dench.
Jude, 10, plays nine-year-old Buddy, a role based on Sir Kenneth himself in the film, which follows a working-class protestant family during The Troubles in Northern Ireland.
The film also stars Jamie Dornan, Ciaran Hinds, Caitriona Balfe and Judi Dench as members of Buddy’s family
