According to reports, actress Lily James has said she became obsessed with honing her typewriting skills while filming for Darkest Hour.
Reports suggest that she said that ‘as a result of the same, her fingers got all muscly.’
She was quoted saying, "It's a real skill. I actually did six weeks of lessons. I had this wonderful lady come round and she was very diligent and I asked for a typewriter for Christmas."
Media reports also quoted her statement saying, "They (typewriters) are hard, with the keys there is a lot of pressure and my fingers got really muscly and I became really obsessive, I sort of thought if I could get the typing right it will be fine, all my anxiety went into the typing."
Darkest Hour is a British war drama featuring Gary Oldman as Winston Churchill. James plays the role of his personal secretary.
