Beet.TV and the Cinema Echo Chamber are partnering to deliver incisive and timely video interviews with film directors, technicians and industry personalities that delve into the cross-section of aesthetics and technological innovation. Our first subject is Canadian director Guy Maddin, whose sublime new film My Winnipeg opens today via IFC Films. Filmmaker Magazine's Scott Macaulay did a neat interview with Guy in the current issue and The New York Times had a terrific piece on him and the film run last sunday, in lieu of A.O. Scott's glowing review of the film this morning.
