[MarshaV]

A good flick!!!


Amazon.com
After directing three films and an Emmy-winning episode of The 
Sopranos, Steve Buscemi turned to Holland--specifically to the work 
of Theo van Gogh. Before his 2004 murder by an Islamic extremist, the 
Dutch filmmaker (and Vincent van Gogh descendent) was planning an 
English-language version of his 2003 Interview--even considering 
Madonna for the Katja Schuurman role. In Buscemi's reconfiguration, 
the actor plays jaded journalist Pierre. Once a war correspondent, he 
now takes any gig he can get. When his editor assigns him an 
interview with tabloid fixture Katya (Sienna Miller, doing her finest 
work to date), Pierre grudgingly acquiesces. Their first meeting in a 
restaurant is a bust. But through a chance second encounter, they 
continue their verbal volly in her roomy Manhattan loft, where Pierre 
discovers that Katya is sharper than her image suggests, and she 
learns about his tragic past. They flirt, fight, kiss, and cry. By 
the end it becomes clear that one of them isn't being completely 
honest... --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Product Description
Self-destructive journalist Pierre Peders (Buscemi) is no stranger to 
violence and inhumanity. Having made his name as a war reporter, he 
has traveled the world seeing some of the most horrifying sights 
imaginable. So he feels that his current puff-piece assignment, an 
interview with pop diva, TV and movie star Katya (Miller), is beneath 
his dignity. The two meet in a restaurant and, instantly, it's a 
collision of two worlds: Pierre's serious political focus and Katya's 
superficial world of celebrity. But perhaps all is not as it appears. 
When Pierre is slightly injured in a traffic accident inadvertently 
caused by Katya, she's the proverbial girl who causes traffic 
accidents, they end up in Katya's spacious loft for a long night of 
talking, drinking, sparring, and coming close to a sort of embattled 
intimacy. Each is scarred in their own way, aching from deep, hidden 
pain. But honest revelations give way to punishing deceptions. Their 
confrontation evolves into a passionate verbal chess game spiked with 
wit, intrigue and sexual tension, capped with a riveting twist ending.
