Sam Taylor-Wood suffered panic attacks on Lennon movie set

London (ANI): Director Sam Taylor-Wood has admitted she feared making her forthcoming movie Nowhere Boy, which talks about John Lennon's childhood. The helmer confessed she regularly suffered panic attacks while filming the movie.

"Taking on someone as iconic as Lennon - that was quite terrifying at times," the Daily Star quoted her as saying. She added: “There were moments where I got overwhelmed and had to sit down and take a few breaths rather than panic and run - but it was so exhilarating and fun to take on that challenge."

Aaron Johnson and Kristin Scott Thomas star in the film focusing on Lennon's early years in Liverpool.
