I hope its not overkill, that I've been posting so many Swanberg-related articles, but there's a lot of great press regarding "Alexander, the last" and I feel its important to share.
This particular article, I read at nypress.com and its about Joe Swanbergs creative relationship with Noah Baumbauch and Greta Gerwig, both of which are equally interesting and important to american cinema.
READ THE ARTICLE HERE!
There is also a frank and honest article with Greta talking about working with Joe on "Nights And Weekends"---the film that informed "Alexander, The Last".
HERE!
Regarding the Baumbach-Swanberg connection, Im very excited about. I love both filmmakers work, and the idea that they will be able to influence each other, inspire each other and work together is a good sign of american cinema's future.
They both have the unique ability to equally to destroy and create our perception of high brow and low brow characters.
I don't want to start drawing connections between their work, but allow this thing to unfold. Ultimately, they are two different human beings and some experiences may be similiar but they will be individualistic with their portrayal of the truth.
