Weekly Interview Roundup
If you're interested in what the cast and crew of the upcoming Narnia movie have to say, here's where to look...
---------------------
Channel 4 (UK) is running an "interview" with director Andrew Adamson. It appears to be a series of readers' questions relayed to Adamson for response. Nothing earthshakingly new here, but at least it's current.
---------------------
The Sun (UK) is running a short interview with Dawn French, the comedian who voices Mrs. Beaver. Among other things, Ms. French has the following to say: "I was on my own in a small darkened room eating a lot of cake with Andrew on the other end of the phone line but I had a great time. I thought he might want me to put strange beaver teeth in or to try to talk like a beaver even though I don’t know what a beaver sounds like."
---------------------
Dark Horizons is running an extensive interview with Andrew Adamson, and there's some good new stuff there. For example, Adamson details what he saw as the only major disagreement with Doug Gresham. "The only thing we really debated at any length was what I considered a sexist aspect of the book. It's when Father Christmas gives weapons to the kids, and says to the girls, 'I don't intend you to use them because weapons are ugly when women fight.'" Read the interview to find out how the disagreement was resolved—and for some insight into how the movie will differ in sensibility from the books.
---------------------
Killer Movies has got a short bit with Popplewell and Moseley. Popplewell's opinion of the movie's theme? "You've got to change yourself before you can change the world."
