Interviews

Talking With Kieran Darcy-Smith and Felicity Price of "Wish You Were Here"

Kieran Darcy-Smith and Felicity Price

Curled up in leather chairs by a sputtering fireplace, Kieran Darcy-Smith,Felicity Price and I had a chance to talk about their new film Wish You Were Here. Director/screenwriter, Kieran, and leading lady/screenwriter, Felicity, worked together to make a distinctly Australian film that is also universally human and, with each other's help, found great success.

With acting as divine as it is challenging and confident, unsettling directing from Darcy-Smith, Wish You Were Here has taut and introspective independent flair. For our full review of the film, click here or read on to learn more.

From Kieran talking about falling into a sewer on day one of the shoot to Felicity recounting her youthful experiences as a traveler, this husband and wife duo really highlight the truly collaborative nature of their work and serve as an inspiration for working couples in the film industry today.

Clark Gregg Talks His Return to The Marvel Universe

Clark Gregg

High on the velvety steps of the Seattle International Film Festival's opening night gala, I had a chance to speak with Clark Gregg, the one actor who has been in as many Marvel films as Robert Downey Jr. From the first inklings of the Marvel Movie Universe in Iron Man, Gregg has played Agent Coulson, an uncharacteristically likeable but no-nonsense agent of S.H.I.E.L.D; the super-secret, super-hero organization led by Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury. S.H.I.E.L.D has had a hand in all of the Marvel movies leading up to The Avengers as they are the organization responsible for assembling the troop of heroes together and Gregg, alongside Jackson, have been the face of The Avengers years before the movie's release.

Talking with Tom Berninger of "Mistaken For Strangers"

 

Hot off the success of his documentary, I had a chance to sit down with Tom Berninger of Mistaken For Strangers. Brother to The National frontman, Matt Berninger, and emerging filmmaker, Tom set out with the band for their year-long world tour with all intentions of making a rock doc. He came away with something else entirely. Boldly turning the camera on himself, Tom's final product was an intimate take on familial challenges and finding himself rather than a portrait of the much loved indie rock sensation.
