Charles Ealy on NPR’s ‘All Things Considered’

By Matthew Odam | Monday, May 18, 2009, 11:26 AM

Statesman film writer/editor Charles Ealy is in the south of France snapping photos and filing blogs and stories from the Cannes Film Festival. He’s also doing a little radio duty. I will leave the details to NPR.

[From NPR.org]

On the first full weekend of the Cannes Film Festival, Rebecca Roberts checks in with Charles Ealy, an editor with the Austin (Texas) American Statesman, who travels to southern France every year for the festival. Ealy talks about several movies showing there, including Heath Ledger’s last film, The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. The movie was finished with Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell playing Ledger’s character in dream sequences. Its director is Terry Gilliam, a Monty Python grad who is known for huge, out-of-control flicks that people think are brilliant or messes or often both.

Listen to Ealy’s smooth, Alabama drawl here.
