INTERVIEW

Steve Buscemi stars in, directed, and co-wrote this film. There's essentially just two characters in this movie (much of the reason why it has the feel of a play) which is based on an original work of Theo Van Gogh. The story has Buscemi, a political writer whose career has been reduced to celebrity soap star interview, interviewing Sienna Miller's TV star character. What starts out as an ill-fated collision of two worlds with little in common...evolves into an adventurous evening of sexual tension, deception, and mental battles. The movie isn'tperfect, and both characters are extremely unlikable...but...there is a definite fascination that holds your interest. The movie is filled with intereting plot twists and memorable scenese. Buscemi is always good...and Miller is excellent in her role as the sexy TV star with a BIG attitude. Definitely worth a rental when you're in the right mood. 3 of 5 hs
