Rui Nogueira on Melville
Rui Nogueira, author of a series of interviews with Melville, collected in Melville on Melville, is positively bubbly with excitement as he recounts one amusing story after another, from his first meetings with Melville to Melville’s desire to make a “black & white color film” to his recollections of the difficulties of LE CERCLE ROUGE’s production. Nogueira also compares Melville to Hitchcock (in his latter career in America) and contends that Melville was “a great American director lost in France.” Film historian Robert Fischer conducted this interview in Munich, Germany, in the spring of 2003.
