Mark Romanek wrote and directed the feature film
One Hour Photo, a psychological drama starring Robin Williams as a lonely photo technician. His latest film is
Never Let Me Go, based on a book by Kazuo Ishiguro, who also wrote
The Remains of the Day. He was interviewed by Dave Davies on today's episode of
Fresh Air's.
There's several interesting parts to this interview, including why (and how) he came to use Robin Williams in
One Hour Photo, and the making of the
Hurt music video with Johnny Cash.

People are shrugging their shoulders at this movie, either whining about its differences from the book or complaining that it's boring (which damns any melancholy attempt at apocalyptic, dystopian tragedy no matter how perfect). I saw a pre-release preview and thought it was brilliant. Will enjoy hearing the interview (and will try to forget all the commercial music video garbage that brought fame to Romanek).
