Hey folks, Harry here - with Grib's latest report from Sundance, this time - it's Steve Buscemi's INTERVIEW with - drool drool, Sienna Miller. Without further ado, here ya go...
Hey Harry,
Grib here with my take on Steve Buscemi's "Interview" with Sienna Miller. Both appeared at last night's late showing, although Miller left after her intro to get some sleep (jetlag).
"Interview" is a remake of the late Theo Van Gogh's 2003 Dutch film of the same name. The earlier version was part of a trilogy of films that Van Gogh (an outspoken activist murdered by an assassin who disagreed with him politically) wanted to remake in America. Buscemi was approached by a close friend of Van Gogh's about helming the first of the three, and he agreed to do it (Stanley Tucci and Bob Balaban will direct the other two; since these films are so intimate and rely so heavily on individual performances, the producers wanted actors to direct them). And what a stunning result this is: "Interview" is basically an hour and a half of Steve Buscemi and Sienna Miller talking to each other. No more, no less. While this will not appeal to action fans, it is more than enough to keep one on the edge of one's seat throughout.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Yesterday was crazy. I managed to catch up on the previous day's movies, but I didn't have a moment to start on that day itself. Here are two reviews from yesterday's adventures:
INTERVIEW
I started off my day with an interview with 4 core people from SLIPSTREAM, including Anthony Hopkins, his producer and wife Stella, actress Lisa Pepper and Christian Slater. As the festival has been incredibly synchronistic so far, with actors connecting movies or the same character names appearing from film to film, etc, it came as no surprise to me that my first day with any interviews immediately preceded Steve Buscemi's film.
