JC Chandor Interview-Director-Screenwriter

William Garrett’s ROOM TONE interview with JC Chandor, Oscar nominated Film Director and Screenwriter. In five short years JC has written and directed the films Margin Call, All is Lost and A Most Violent Year, with Hollywood’s top actors bringing his scripts to life. Garrett and Chandor discuss his earliest films made with the family video camera, how dyslexia hones other skills like memory and observation that serve a writer/director well, how a brief stint in Hollywood sent him quickly back east and trying hard not to screw up a pitch meeting with the legendary Robert Redford.
