Video Interview…Richard Kaufman Conducts ‘Wicked Divas’ with The Dallas Symphony
In advance of the Pops series “Wicked Divas” at the Dallas Symphony, which runs May 31-June 2, 2013, we sat with Pops Conductor Laureate Richard Kaufman to get an idea of what to expect from the upcoming perfomance. The Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center will be putting on a tribute to Broadway diva showstoppers.

Video Interview…’The Place Beyond the Pines’ Writer/Director Derek Cianfrance
Derek Cianfrance made quite a name for himself in 2010 with Blue Valentine along with helping make Gosling a household name. In his newest film The Place Beyond the Pines, he tells the story of Luke (Ryan Gosling), a motor cage rider in a travelling carnival, who is trying to provide for his family by any means necessary. Like Blue Valentine, Pines is extremely well-crafted and wins points for its realistic portrayal of damaged and flawed individuals as it tells a gripping multi-generational story across its uncommon triptych narrative structure. The Place Beyond the Pines has been acclaimed at nearly every festival including its amazing success last year at the Toronto International Film Festival. Go,See,Talk got to sit with Derek and…

[Fantastic Fest Interview]…’Antiviral’ Writer/Director Brandon Cronenberg & Star Caleb Landry Jones
David Cronenberg…it’s likely you know the name, and if you do then you know what it means. Synonymous with weird, wild and WTF, his films (Scanners, The Fly, Naked Lunch) are incredibly well-crafted, albeit tough to understand at times. Sometimes, in the case of something like Videodrome, his message can be unsettlingly prophetic. But now there’s a new kid in town carrying the wonky torch for the family, oneBrandon Cronenberg and if you’ve seen his film Antiviral (check out our review!) then you know the apple doesn’t fall far from that creatively warped tree. Brandon makes his feature film debut as both writer and director. His film, Antiviral, is a dark and eerie satire on society’s obsession with celebrity that…

Video Interview…’ParaNorman’ Writer/Co-Directors Chris Butler & Sam Fell
In Laika‘s follow-up to their animated hit film Coraline, comes the similarly unique and oddball adventure ParaNorman; the storyabout a boy (voiced by Kodi Smit-McPhee) who’s able to speak with the dead, and must to save his small town from a centuries-old curse. The brainchild of Chris Butler, he and co-director Sam Fell bring the delightfully dreary and phantasmically funny film ParaNorman to life and in Stereoscopic 3D! Go,See,Talk got the chance to sit with both Butler and Fell to talk about their “stop-frame” film. We discuss its development (a dizzying 16 years in the making), its distinctive look, and more.

Video Interview…’Ruby Sparks’ Writer/Stars Zoe Kazan and Paul Dano
Zoe Kazan writes and stars alongside real-life boyfriend Paul Dano in the original, hysterical and emotional Ruby Sparks. The story follows a novelist struggling with writer’s block who finds romance in a most unusual way: by creating a female character he thinks will love him, then willing her into existence. The couple have solid chemistry that comes right off the screen and play well off of the likes of Chris Messina, Annette Benning, Antionio Banderas and Elliot Gould who round out this wacky ensemble piece. The first screenplay from Kazan, she knocks this out of the park both behind the camera and in-front of it. Ruby Sparks looks to be the surprise hit of the year and Go,See,Talk got to…
