INTERVIEW: Danny Boyle for T2 TRAINSPOTTING

On March 17, 2017, I was pleased to have sat in on a roundtable interview with Danny Boyle, a director whose 1996 film Trainspotting changed the way I looked at movies. (For my personal take on Trainspotting, click here.) When I heard Danny Boyle and the cast of Trainspotting were coming back for T2 Trainspotting, […]

Living in and around Washington, DC can make you tired of everything having to do with politics, politicians, the media, social media, and the soundbite-driven attention spans of the area’s constituents.
