Description
We have the wonderful director of the new neo-noir Stray Dolls on the program, Sonejuhi Sinha. She’s calling in from New York to talk about a very Los Angeles movie – Nicolas Winding Refn’s Drive. Sonejuhi talks all about subverting the typical noir leading man with a female protagonist of color. She discusses creating a “mysterious city” for her film to take place in, much like the movie Drive. Plus, she elaborates on her obsession with motels. And she reveals why she sets a timer to write for 90 minutes.You can watch Stray Dolls on VOD now.If you haven’t seen Drive…get on it!AND, if you want to check out April’s Staff Pick – watch Alice Winocour’s DisorderWith April Wolfe and Sonejuhi Sinha

Plus, Anne discusses what she would have done differently had she directed The Others, and what is was like working on her own gothic film, American Fable.
