Prolific British director Michael Winterbottom (b.1961) might be
hard to pin down and even harder to categorize. Over sixteen years,
he has created feature films as disparate and stylistically diverse
as "Welcome to Sarajevo," "24 Hour Party People," "In This World,"
"Butterfly Kiss," and "The Killer Inside Me." But in this
collection, the first English-language volume to gather
international profiles and substantive interviews with the
Blackburn native, Winterbottom reveals how working with small
crews, available light, handheld digital cameras, radio mics, and
minuscule budgets allows him fewer constraints than most
filmmakers, and the ability to capture the specificity of the
locations where he shoots.
In "Michael Winterbottom: Interviews" he emerges as an
industrious filmmaker committed to a stripped-down approach whose
concern with outsiders and docu-realist authenticity have remained
constant throughout his career.Collecting pieces from news
periodicals as well as scholarly journals, including previously
unpublished interviews and the first-ever translation of a lengthy,
illuminating exchange with the French editors of "Positif," this
volume spans the full breadth of Winterbottom's notably eclectic
feature-film career.Damon Smith, Brooklyn, New York, is a film
programmer and editor for Babelgum. His work has appeared in
"Reverse Shot," "Boston Globe," "Time Out New York," "Cinema
Scope," and several other publications.
