If you are not familiar with Garance Dore, I highly suggest you follow her blog. She is a woman of many trades, most known for her street fashion photography and refreshingly realistic rants about the fashion world. One of my personal favorites: do I go to yoga? Ok, ok, I will go to yoga but I need a glass of wine afterwards. I interviewed Garance on what she's up to for Fashion week, her style inspiration, and her favorite places in New York.
I spoke with Guillaume Canet about his new film Les Petits Mouchoirs, or "Little White Lies." Reminiscent of The Big Chill, the film tells the story of a group of friends whose lives are sent into a tailspin after a member of their group is seriously injured in a motorcycle accident. Canet won the Cesar for best directing for his last film, Tell No One, which I highly recommend. We talked about the importance of friendship, his new project, and his favorite burger in New York.
It was both a pleasure and an honor to interview the magnificent Sheila Heti, whose new novel, How Should A Person Be? publishes Tuesday. The book is highly recommended reading. In fact, it is one of the best books I have read in years. You should definitely read it, and then read the interview at The Awl, which is very long. In it, Sheila and I discuss her novel, along with a variety of topics from friendship to sex to Lena Dunham to Toronto, and much more. You can learn more about Sheila at her website, www.sheilaheti.net.
Here's a Q&A with Michael Stuhlbarg, who you'll remember from the Coen Brothers' A Serious Man. He's currently starring in Men in Black III and is working on two huge projects, Spielberg's Lincoln and Hitchcock.
I did a little Q&A with Zosia Mamet, one of the stars of HBO's new series, Girls, about the show, her famous family, and her favorite places in New York. As always, you can find me on a daily basis at Gotham's insight blog . . .
