SHAME -- Steve McQueen and Michael Fassbender interview
Series: Behind the Scenes
From: Andrea Chase
Length: 00:07:24
It's hardly surprising that while talking about SHAME,a film that deals frankly and boldly with sex, that star Michael Fassbinder should invoke both Freud and Jung, the latter he portrays in another film this year, A DANGEROUS METHOD. The conversation was short, but covered why director Steve McQueen considers silence so honest, Fassbender's consideration of the complexity of sex, and why the film was set in America, not the UK.
