Ethan and the cinema

In case you missed it, as I did, Ethan Canin's story (one of my favorites) "Batorsag and Szerelem" was made into a movie called Beautiful Ohio, directed by Chad Lowe and starring William Hurt and Rita Wilson. Ethan also wrote the screenplay (his fourth to be produced). Here's a local newspaper's interview with Ethan in advance of the film's screening at the Sarasota Film Festival. (Anyone seen it?)

While we're on the topic, he also has another film in production, which he also co-wrote, based on his stories "The Year of Getting to Know Us" and "Star Food," called Rockett.
