Michael Fassbender: The TF Interview
Total Film has woken Michael Fassbender up. When he strides into the London hotel suite where we’re waiting for him he admits jovially that he just “dropped off next door”…
No surprise. The 34-year-old Irishman has been busy jetting around the globe (“Toronto, New York, then back here, then New York again and then Paris…” he reels off when we ask why he’s pooped) promoting two awards botherers; stark (in every way) sex addict treatise Shame from Steve McQueen, and David Cronenberg’s psycho-sexual period drama A Dangerous Method….

30 Films To See At London Film Festival 2011
DRAGONSLAYER
What Is It? Not the classic, beast-felling fantasy from 1981 starring Peter MacNicol – in fact, far from it.
This new Dragonslayer is a skater documentary that took home the Best Documentary award at the SXSW Festival earlier this year.
Star of the show is Josh ‘Skreech’ Sandoval, a homeless California skateboarder who bums off his friends and spends his time getting drunk and/or high. Clearly influenced by Gus Van Sant, director Tristan Patterson delivers a cool indie doc that doesn’t flinch away from its subject.

French poster for Cronenberg’s A Dangerous Method
A French poster for A Dangerous Method has appeared online.
The David Cronenberg-directed outing stars Viggo Mortensen and Michael Fassbender as Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung, the founding fathers of psychoanalysis.
Keira Knightley also features as Sabina Spielrein, the Russian-Jewish patient who came between them, leading to the birth of their famous method.
The poster has all three stars looking awfully upper-class, dissolving into one-another to create an optical illusion that could end up giving you a spot of brain ache.
It’s a cool poster (yes, cooler that The Fass and Viggy’s cup-of-tea/cigar standoff above.) Click her to see it…
David Cronenberg’s A Dangerous Method gets a trailer
The first trailer for David Cronenberg’s A Dangerous Method has landed online.
Based on the 2002 play The Talking Cure, the film stars Viggo Mortensen as Sigmund Freud and Michael Fassbender as Karl Jung.
As WWI appears on the horizon, the two men find themselves divided by the case of Sabina Spielrein (Keira Knightley), a troubled Russian woman who comes between them and their methods.
With Knightley taking on a foreign accent, Fassbender sporting a ‘tache and Mortensen all but unrecognisable as Freud, Method seems to be a showcase for some Very Serious Acting.
Happily, it looks like riveting stuff, featuring exquisite period detail and explosive drama aplenty.
