Altman (Does) Not Explain It All To You
Maverick filmmaker and legend Robert Altman (who's set to release his 39th film, "A Prairie Home Companion" soon) is the subject of Vanity Fair's standard Proust Questionnaire in the latest April issue.
I say standard because a lot of these are soooo typical. Like, the question, "If you could change one thing about your family, what would it be?" is usually met with "Nothing."
Altman however, answers with a mysterious, "No comment."
I also like that the historical figure he most identifies with is Buffalo Bill.
But this is his best, most Altman-esque statement. In answer to "What is your greatest dislike?" the true independent replies, "Movies that explain everything."
Amen to that. --posted by Kim
