Link: LFM interview part 2
Excerpt, read the rest of the interview at the link below.. (the bit I highlighted about Paul's directing style.. I think is very true)
By Govindini Murty and Jason Apuzzo. As we recently posted here at LFM, Jason Apuzzo and I had the chance last week to visit the set of Atlas Shrugged, the highly anticipated film adaptation of Ayn Rand’s epic 1957 novel. We interviewed the film’s director, Paul Johansson (the first interview he has given to the media about the film). We also spent several hours watching Johansson direct a crucial scene between Atlas Shrugged‘s heroine Dagny Taggart and her antagonist, millionaire playboy Francisco d’Anconia. We saw first hand Johansson’s close working methods with his actors (the actor playing d’Anconia compared Johansson’s hands-on directing style to that of Robert Redford)and the passion he was bringing to the production. The location was the historic Biltmore Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. We posted Part One of our interview with Johansson on Wednesday, and now we’re pleased to post here Part Two.
