The Casting Couch – Rowan Joffe

The Casting Couch – Rowan Joffe (right click and “save as” for download)

That’s right Casta fans! It’s time for us to have a chin wag with real life film folk. This time Chris M had the good fortune to sit down with Rowan Joffe; writer and director of new film Brighton Rock starring Sam Riley, Andrea Riseborough, Helen Mirren, John Hurt and Andy Serkis – an adaptation of Graham Greene’s classic British novel retold in the sixties. This is Rowan’s big screen directorial debut but he has won critical acclaim with his previous directorial work for tv, as well as penning the script for last year’s brilliant George Clooneyfest The American.

So sit back and enjoy fifteen or so minutes of exclusive to Casta action, featuring a very special appearance by a well known pop singer.

This is the “special treat” we mentioned last episode but we just couldn’t wait another week to put it up, so expect more audio content in just less than two weeks and keep an eye out for more great written stuff, including another two this week!

Thanks go to Laura at BAFTA and of course to Rowan himself for taking the time to talk to us.

Brighton Rock is released this Friday so GO AND SEE IT!
