Interview with Mark Kermode

Thanks to my ongoing writing for world cinema blog subtitledonline.com, I had the opportunity to interview BBC film critic Mark Kermode in front of a camera. Well... I say camera, I really mean my trusty Sony Bloggie. I met with the good doctor at the Electric cinema in Birmingham, as part of his nationwide tour in support of his second book The Good, The Bad and the Multiplex, a book which seeks to illuminate the ugly side of modern cinema.

I sat down with Kermode for a good ten minutes talking about the state of foreign language movies and independent cinema in general. As anyone who listens to his BBC radio 5 live show will tell you, he knows how to talk about movies.
