Who is the Director of Love at First Sight?

Vanessa Caswill is a British filmmaker and writer who mostly works in the television drama and short film industries. Both the BBC miniseries “Thirteen” (2016) and “Little Women” (2017) were directed by Caswill. When Angela Lansbury appeared in Little Women, it was the first time in her nearly 80-year acting career that a female director helmed the production. “It was an extremely personal connection with a director I had never worked with before… She was quite great in her capacity to come to us actors and not in a loud way. From a distance, she would come and whisper in our ears. This was one of the many talents that made her stand out. And by doing so, she could communicate really nuanced ideas, which she otherwise might not have wanted people to understand because she was a woman. But it must have been a joy for the actor to hear it, and I cherished our time spent working together in that capacity. Coming soon to theaters is her directorial debut titled Love at First Sight.
