Thanks for watching! Read all about Edward Norton here 👉🏼http://bit.ly/richroll479
One of the most acclaimed actors of his generation, Edward Norton graces the podcast to discuss his fascinating life and perspective on filmmaking, culture, politics and power.
Over the course of his extraordinary career, Edward has reaped 3 Academy Award nominations starring in some of the greatest films of our era — Primal Fear, American History X, Fight Club, Birdman, 25th Hour and Moonrise Kingdom among them.
The occasion for this conversation is Motherless Brooklyn — a long-gestating passion project Edward wrote, directed, produced and headlines. A period crime noir that confronts the shadowy malevolence of New York power in the 1950's, Edward stars as a twitchy tourettic detective determined to find his boss' killer. An extraordinary achievement evocative of Chinatown, it’s a terrific watch I implore all of you to immediately see in the theatre.
Today we dive into the role of ego in his profession. We dissect disenfranchisement and the implications of weaponized social media in our politically divided culture. And we talk about the state of environmental activism.
On the subject of creativity, we explore the importance of gestation — distancing yourself from the noise to reboot artistic originality. We discuss balancing art against other life priorities. And how his deep interest in the nature of power underscores his latest work.
It was an absolute pleasure and honor to talk with a man I respect and admire tremendously.
Enjoy!
