Dear Lucky,

I'm writing on behalf of Dinushka Cooray who has planned a shoot this sunday with you.

the segment with you is an interview.

as Dinushka told me you decided on "Pulp fiction" and "Sin city" the discussion will be on those two films.

The discussion will focus on your ideas and interpretation of the works discussed as a young generation film maker of Sri Lanka.

on sin city we could start off with something like

#;Do you think Sin city would charachterize Robert Rodriguez as a director taking a new level in the Hollywood cinema industry? (Please elaborate)

#;How does the graphic novel genre find its place with sin city? is it the quintessential graphic novel made movie?

(and the discussion can move on to areas such as the following)

#;what can you say about how colour is utilized in the film? what could future Sri Lankan film makers learn from such works in relation to developing of colour scheming?

#;a review of the movie in the Chicago sun-times said-

"This isn't an adaptation of a comic book, it's like a comic book brought to life and pumped with steroids" what elements in the film would warrant such comments?

(moving on to Pulp Fiction)

#;Pulp fiction directed by Quentin Tarantino won the Palma Dor at the Cannes film festival and was nomimated for 7 oscars, did this film mark the arrival of a new age in cinema? or was it hype?

#;This film has a non-linear narrative which is of course not an unusual mode, it has three main storylines, so what can you say about the narrative structure and flow? what have you found intriguing in this regard?

#;As a film maker Quentin Tarantino's name is very much synonymous with the portrayal of violence, but as a storyteller where can his success be seen in Pulp fiction? what can aspiring filmakers learn from this movie?

(wrap up)

This would be basically what we can discuss; Hope it suits your line, if anything needs to be revised give Dinushka a holler, he'll anyhow buzz you before the shoot. Hope to see you on sunday,

Cheers

Haritha Ekanayake
