Rango and Submarine

I've got two screenings this week which I'm VERY excited about. First up is animated film Rango, which is 'the story of a chameleon with an identity crisis,' starring Johnny Depp as the title character. I've got high expectations and will be interviewing Bill Nighy and director Gore Verbinski (the Pirates films) later in the week.

My second screening of the week is Submarine, which is the directorial debut of Richard Ayoade (The IT Crowd). It was screened as part of last year's London Film Festival and I've heard amazing things.

I can't believe I managed to do this.

In December I got to interview Ryan Gosling. RYAN GOSLING!

I can report that he is just as handsome in the flesh, very polite and very tall. He's incredibly thoughtful with his answers and extremely passionate about his trade.

It's probably a good thing that it was only a one-camera interview, so the pressure was slightly less...



P.S. It's crazy he was left out of this year's Oscar nominations, his performance in Blue Valentine is outstanding.

I heart Matt Lucas.

My first interview of 2011 was with the brilliant cast of Gnomeo & Juliet; Emily Blunt, Matt Lucas, Ashley Jensen and director Kelly Asbury.

One of my most favourite interviews ever.
