Interview. Chris Cooper.

Chris Cooper "Chris Cooper made his film debut in John Sayles's Matewan," writes Sean Axmaker, introducing his interview with the actor.

"In the 20 years since, his career has been defined by a remarkable wealth and variety of interesting characters and intense performances in films as diverse as Lone Star, American Beauty, Seabiscuit and Capote. He won an Oscar for Adaptation and his unsettling incarnation of CIA traitor Robert Hanssen in Breach was mesmerizing. He takes another rare leading role in Ira Sach's Married Life, an unusual genre mix that combines period style and a story of adultery and one man's plot to murder his wife with a comedy of manners approach and a serious conversation about love and desire and marriage and relationships. I had the opportunity to talk to Mr Cooper about Married Life, married life, and a career playing such a diverse and memorable set of characters."

In the Parallax View, Sean talks with Sachs as well.
