Charlie Kaufman - Press Appearances

Press Appearances

Kaufman was interviewed on the Colbert Report on December 9, 2008, Charlie Rose, and also by Mark Kermode for The Culture Show on BBC2 on 24 March 2009. Michael Sragow asserted in a 2007 article on Salon.com that Kaufman "avoids talking personally". In 2009, David Poland said to Kaufman, "you've not really done a lot of press", to which Kaufman responded by saying "I've done a lot of press" and that he was annoyed by "mythology" created by entertainment media. Kaufman informed Poland that he had done interviews for all movies from Being John Malkovich onwards, yet interviewers had continued to say to him during interviews that he didn't do a lot of press.

Famous quotes containing the words press and/or appearances:

    While it may not heighten our sympathy, wit widens our horizons by its flashes, revealing remote hidden affiliations and drawing laughter from far afield; humor, in contrast, strikes up fellow feeling, and though it does not leap so much across time and space, enriches our insight into the universal in familiar things, lending it a local habitation and a name.
    —Marie Collins Swabey. Comic Laughter, ch. 5, Yale University Press (1961)

    Truth has scarce done so much good in the world as the false appearances of it have done hurt.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
