Summary: Self-destructive journalist Pierre Peders is no stranger to violence and inhumanity. Having made his name as a war reporter, he has traveled the world seeing some of the most horrifying sights imaginable. So he feels that his current puff-piece assignment, an interview with pop diva, TV and movie start Katya, is beneath his dignity. TheSelf-destructive journalist Pierre Peders is no stranger to violence and inhumanity. Having made his name as a war reporter, he has traveled the world seeing some of the most horrifying sights imaginable. So he feels that his current puff-piece assignment, an interview with pop diva, TV and movie start Katya, is beneath his dignity. The two meet in a restaurant and instantly it's a collision of two worlds--Pierre's serious political focus and Katya's superficial world of celebrity. But perhaps all is not as it appears. Their confrontation evolves into a passionate verbal chess game spiked with wit, intrigue and sexual tension, capped with a riveting twist ending. (Sony Pictures)… Expand

Critic Reviews

Owen Gleiberman

Any doubts as to whether Sienna Miller is a gifted actress should be laid to rest by Interview. Read full review

Roger Ebert

I found Interview kind of fascinating, especially in the ways that Buscemi and Miller make their performances into commentaries on the types of characters they play. Read full review

Jack Mathews

The first of three planned remakes of Dutch films by the late Theo van Gogh, Steve Buscemi's Interview takes the most unnatural act in human intercourse - the celebrity interview - and makes an explosively funny two-character psychodrama out of it. Read full review

Manohla Dargis

Vaporous and chilled to freezing, Interview lacks a single honest moment, but it does have plenty of diverting ones. Read full review

James Berardinelli

Interview has its moments but they can't prevent it from feeling a little long winded and unsatisfying. Read full review

Andrew O'Hehir

Whatever we may make of van Gogh's life and death, Buscemi's talky, stagey Interview -- the first of three van Gogh adaptations planned by American actor-directors -- doesn't make much of a case for him as an important or original artist. Read full review

Josh Rosenblatt

Buscemi and Miller do their best with what they have, finding at least some small redemption in two dislikable characters written into an improbable situation, but emotional honesty in the service of nonsense is still nonsense, no matter how many scabs it manages to pick at. Read full review
