Synopsis: |
In "Let's Break Some Black Hearts, The Believer" magazine's first collection of film interviews, the most compelling artists in Hollywood and the most courageous voices in indie filmmaking speak openly about their work, and the results are consistently frank, funny, and intimate. Readers encounter the late Philip Seymour Hoffman reading George Saunders and Proust (and discussing the joys of smoking cigarettes); Rashida Jones stumping for President Obama and reflecting on playing Feminist #3; Mario Van Peebles on refusing to create "cinematic Wonder Bread;" Miranda July on conversations with the childhood version of herself; and Gus Van Sant on changing the language of Hollywood films, one long shot at a time -- and much more. In its 11-year run, "The Believer" has become known for facilitating conversations between artists at the height of their craft, and "Let's Break Some Black Hearts" includes several such electrifying encounters. Featured pairings include Francis Ford Coppola in conversation with Ruth Reichl, Mary Lynn Rajskub speaking with Carrie Brownstein, and an unforgettable discussion between Werner Herzog and Errol Morris. Over 30 collected interviews discuss high art and pop culture in equal measure, offering readers a vivid and entertaining glimpse into the film industry as a whole. |
