Anne Perry: The Making of a Writer
Vložit

- Best known for her historical novels, Anne Perry has written numerous works that explore the lives of people from different eras--from Victorian England, in her Charlotte and Thomas Pitt mysteries, and eighteenth-century revolutionary Paris, in The One Thing More, to the ancient world in her epic Tathea novels. But whatever epoch Perry depicts, her novels always portray richly drawn characters who face obstacles entirely recognizable to today's reader. Watch Perry explain why in this video, filmed from her home in Scotland.
I'm pretty sure that's not what she's known for....
Anna Merriman her real name is Juliet Hulme, she murdered her best friend's mother when she was a teenager. Both of the girls were deluded psychopaths
Lol🤣😂 so true
She was quite a successful writer for several years actually before her identity was revealed
Just wants to be known as being kind! Whaaaa? You murdered your friend’s mother in 1954. Kind??????
@Jada Grant once a murderer, always a murderer.
Yeah, she held her down as her friend/lover smashed her head in with a brick.
she was a murderer and she did not deserve her success, she is a vile human being who was never showed remorse and will never find the redemption she so desperately craves unless she shows remorse
Best known for her historical novels?? Not quite, lol, try "savage murder without a conscience."
For those that don’t know, this woman who is now a successful writer called Anne Perry, was once a young girl living in New Zealand called Juliet Hulme. In 1954 ages 15, she and her best friend Pauline Parker brutally murdered Pauline’s mother in Victoria Park, Christchurch. The fact that she is now a successful murder mystery writer is absolutely shocking. She may have redeemed herself, but she’s still a murderer, and the act of taking a life should never be forgiven...
Sammy Pasa We'll see how relaxed you are about murder when it happens to someone you love. After a certain amount of time goes by, just get over it.
Aaron Jones. The essence of Christianity is Forgiveness. I suspect most people who reply about Anne Perry's past have not had a relative or friend who was murdered, so those opinions and judgments have no standing or real credibility.
@@funnygamertwat8879 you're so judgmental and downright crude.
@@peterthayer6238 tell that to her friend's mum oh actually never mind you can't because she murdered her
@@sonyk2542 would you tell that to a Jewish person, whose family was killed by the nazi's
She's never shown any real remorse for her crime.
How do you know?
She has. She served her time, too.
@@matthewschwartz6607 Five years is no time for murder!
@@tomkent4656 - She was not an adult, then. She has definitely shown remorse. Do you want her to cry every single time that you see her?
@@matthewschwartz6607 oh wow, 5 whole years for killing someone, after planning it out and bashing a persons head in over 20 times. Great justice lol.
I'm surprised she never saw Pauline again after they were both released from prison considering how close they were. Interesting that now they both live in the same country.
AG it was one of the conditions of her release that she never contact Pauline again
They probably have met again they just say they haven't. They live in the same country. I find it hard to believe that they haven't met up.

Yeah, that's what it is said in Heavenly Creatures, but I've also read that that was just a rumor and not a known fact. Besides, how would they enforce that? They're going to stop two free citizens from meeting and seeing each other?
@@95key Yeah, you could be right about that. I just thought that Anne Perry would reveal something like that if it happened. Unlike Pauline who is private, she is fairly open. She revealed her true identity and still talks about the murder when asked about it.
@@Alex-fx5es I just don't see it as a coincidence that they both now live in Scotland 100km away from each other by some weird chance. There's too many places to live in the world and the fact that they are both there can't be some random thing. If they still lived in different countries than yes, but it's just too close. I'd bet they may even sleep over a lot actually.
This woman is a monster
Anne Perry's real name is Juliet Hulme in 1953 she and another girl named Pauline Parker murdered Pauline's mother because they had a intense realtionship and they were both delusional and they lived in a fantasy world and didn't want people to know what was going on! Both girls were arrested and taken to seprate prisons and Juliet Hulme left NZ to join her mother overseas and she lives in Scotland as a writer and she doesn't talk about the past and Pauline Parker changed her name and she is recluse in London, England and it was written that these girls were never to see each other again! They did a movie called Heavenly Creatures in 1994 which starred Kate Winslet and they are also on a TV show called Deadly Women ID that murder still haunts Christchurch NZ today!
We know.
@@randomuser1105 Oh, THANK YOU, voice of ALL humanity... LOL
I just watched the movie it's disturing to say the least.
She killed someone... on purpose....WTF
I wonder if she donates money to the family of the woman SHE mudered?
It was in the 50's get over it.
Why are you insulting me ?
It was so long ago you can't change nothing now.
She. Is. Gone.
They moved on.
Fuck off you people who are insulting me without any reasons.
Why in this world we cannot discuss whithout insults????
Well considering the woman's daughter was one of the murderers I would think it would be her who would need to speak to her family members.
El ricon lector de Manu: She did help murder Honora parker. Juliet hit her with the brick just like Pauline. That's common knowledge. Do some basic researching before posting nonsense.
She got away with murder. 5 years. What a joke.
"If I could just be known for being kind" ugh! Please lady show some emotion and remorse for what you did. Does she support victims of crime? Does she raise money for teenage disorders. Nope. There is no obvious kindness nor trying to right her wrongs. A very sad tale about a teenage murderer who grows up to become a crime writer. Just awful.
Helen Parker. How do you know what charitable giving Anne Perry does?
How do you know what she does? Do you know her personally? How do you know she hasn't done charitable work?
She should write a book about HER crime
Why?
I hope one day Pauline's diaries can be published. Maybe the truth about Juliet is in there.
The eyes of the savage. Perfect English, well done.
If a half-brick comes smashing down on your face you could be walking on the great wall of China or in New Zealand any time or any place like 1954 for instance...
What if Anne Perry interviewed Juliet Hulme?
Kind? Holy hell. Lol
Basically, you are reminiscing your past history with the war effort. On the norm, everyone scatters their interpretation on this topic on noting the preempted situation,; in hindsight, it revolves around onto another war effort but this time current. Its just the way things go...hm,mm was sentenced to death by a Kentucky jury
"if I could just be known for being kind that will do it" how disgusting !! She was mean as a child and I'm quite certain she's made very little change to that now. How crazy she is
How do you know? She hasn't done anything currently.
All people deserve a second chance, and she has proved it by far. Sometimes the burden of carrying a tragic past on whether it is something very hard to overcome is a brand that more than someone will remember.It's something to live with, the important thing is to reinvent yourself day by day and she has done it
Except she and her friend only got a few years. Anne is making millions from her books and had made even more money because people learned about her past. She was rewarded for murdering a person with only a few years of condemnation.
When she was found out her first thought was “oh no my career is over and I’m going to become a hermit.” She wasn’t concerned with being deceitful to her loved ones and fans, but that she would lose her money.
I understand that she wanted to move on... but I hope people understand the near absurdist irony in a convicted murderer writing crime novels.
And she will never, ever be known for the things she described.
It's really sad that she gets to live her life, and be successful, meanwhile she killed someone. BS! She shouldn't be allowed to be successful. The crime that was committed was not little. It's truly really sad and tragic and disgusting.
i hate the fact that people who have committed serious crimes are not remembered for their serious crimes and are instead glorified for the other"good" things which may actually be good for which she has done
@@chrisitl why shouldn't she?
eww
She did a horrendous crime at the age of 15 but spent the rest of her life as a law abiding citizen. She speaks and writes with compassion and humour. I dont know her inner life, no one does. The fact that everyone is so quick to demonise her without knowing what she has paid for her crimes speaks volumes about them. Surely we want people to turn their lives around, rather than continue as a criminal! When she does speak about it in other interviews she says the minimum, she doesn’t gush or try to justify what she did. I think she knows full well the weight of what she did. You lot are like a bloomin lynch mob, judge first, ask questions later. If someone murdered my family, nothing would make ammends but at the very least I'd want their actions to be a catalyst for change in their life, for them to carry that burden and turn themselves around. I would hope whatever good could come out of it would.
Killer
I blame the mother for not loving her and raising her correct
Don’t have kids if you ain’t gonna mother them. Raise them good.
Her mother was actually incredibly hands off and negligent.
@Universal wisdom Follower of Christ I never used it as an excuse, so I do not know why you would spit that fallacy. Moreover, do I believe that she is a sociopath? Maybe. Let’s just say her alleles made the chance of her becoming a sociopath in early childhood greater, then the emotional neglect caused by her mother, as well as the trauma of WW2, may have caused it. So if she is a sociopath, it would be partially her mother’s fault. However, she should not have murdered Honora.
@Laryssa Lee hahahah blablablah ... ahahah stupid comment
A mother was murdered. A mother is still to blame. Their poor mothers.
killer
Sucks she’s lived so long
R I.P.dear Anny.
The Angels have forgiven you 🙏🌿
Murder
Feel better? Now go back to venerate capitalism without a care in the world.
@@jojolafrite90 capitalism is the good economy in the world that we have.
Mudernis bad and she's guilty of that and I'll make no attempt to justify that.
But if you have watched this video just to condemn her, and not taken listened to her writing advice.
Then you have thrown the baby out with the bathwater.
But I must say what she said at the end came across as very bad given her reputation
