AN INTERVIEW WITH 

DONALD ROSENFELD

By Joshua Handler

Last month, I had the chance to sit down with producer Donald Rosenfeld about his new film, Effie Gray, which was released in theaters earlier this year. The film is an Emma Thompson-scripted period drama about Effie Gray, a teenager (Dakota Fanning) who gets into a love triangle in Victorian England. Rosenfeld is the former president of the acclaimed Merchant Ivory Productions and has been the executive producer of such well-loved films as The Tree of Life and Jodorowsky's Dune.

Below, you can listen to the interview in full. Because we were in a hotel next to the restaurant, there is some disruptive background noise, but that shouldn't impede on your comprehension of the interview.
