British Film Institute: Interviews


British Film Institute: Interviews [http://www.bfi.org.uk/features/interviews/ ] - The British Film Institute treats the art of filmmaking with both reverence and irreverence and their public forums and interview series are well-regarded by members of the public and dedicated cineastes alike. They have done a nice job of offering up some of their choicest interviews on this site, and visitors can view interview transcripts dating back to 2001 here. The interviews are arranged alphabetically, and they include conversations with such luminaries as John Boorman, Robert Altman, Ben Kingsley, and Satyajit Ray. There are a few welcome surprises here, such as a lively interview with Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller (known for their witty way around early rock and roll songs) and Tom Baker of "Dr. Who" fame. >From The Scout Report, Copyright Internet Scout Project 1994-2007. http://scout.wisc.edu/ [Image: http://www.archives.gov/publications/prologue/2007/summer/images/technology-edison-m.jpg]
