Cover Boy

Debuting on newsstands right about now is the new issue of Stop Smiling, the magazine where you'll find my cover-story interview with the phenomenal Scottish film director Lynne Ramsay. Some of my favorite tidbits from the conversation are missing from this transcript—not least the discovery that we love many of the same films, including Safe and A Woman Under the Influence—but I still hope that you'll enjoy the conversation and follow up on her films, including the three dazzling shorts (Gasman, in particular) available on the Ratcatcher DVD. After a week of very high spirits for British cinema, Ramsay's a great rental choice!

Apologies for having to add the Word Verification function, but the spam has become insufferable lately. Maybe I have Finally Arrived? Suddenly, I am on the radar of all the classiest Russian Viagra magnates and Indian flower shops. But sorry to interrupt. What were you about to say?

(For the reason I've just described, I moderate all comments made more than two weeks after a post, so don't be mystified if you hit "Publish" and it doesn't appear.)
