This is an unusually articulate, smart and engaging conversation (if you can ignore the interviewer’s drooling/fawning) with Canadian director David Cronenberg. The Film Society of Lincoln Center has revived it for “The Close Up” podcast, from 1995, around the time of his A History of Violence. A highlight for me was his blunt insight on violence in cinema, calling it not at all “edgy,” and really just a manifestation of attitude. Hope you like it.
