She continued to push boundaries in films that include Peter Weir's The Mosquito Coast, Peter Greenaway's The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and her Lover, Charles Sturridge's Where Angels Fear to Tread and Terry George's Some Mother's Son, which she also co-produced. Her more recent films include Calendar Girls, Shadowboxer, Inkheart and National Treasure: Book of Secrets.
