My interview with cinematographer Robert Elswit, who's in the running for an Oscar nomination for Good Night, And Good Luck., is online at the Film & Video Web site. Most interesting bits? Faces was the primary influence on how Good Night, And Good Luck. was shot. And the look of Syriana was modeled in part on The Insider. Elswit's a pretty interesting guy, I think.
