Summary
Mexican Filmmaker Alejandro Gonzales Inarritu and writer Paul Robeson, Jr., on this edition of Fresh Air. Inarritu's debut film, Amores Perros, has just been released in the US to critical acclaim. The film follows the lives of three groups of people whose human relationships parallel the relationships they have with their dogs. Released in Los Angeles theaters in April, the movie was nominated for an Oscar in the category of Best Foreign Language Film. Other awards include the Canal Award at Cannes 2000, Grand Prix for Best Film, Best Director at the Tokyo International Film Festival, and New Director's Award at Edinburgh. Paul Robeson, Jr.'s just written a new memoir called The Undiscovered Paul Robeson, the first of a two part series on his father, the famed actor, singer, and athlete. He talks about his father's rise in show business and what it was like growing up as the son of an icon. He lives in Brooklyn, New York. (Broadcast Date: April 26, 2001)
