I love unconventional interviews, recorded conversations between actors, actresses, directors and screenwriters about the filmmaking process. It might be that the relationships that have already been established on set translate to a more honest interesting and entertaining interview. That is one of the many reasons I LOVED Jon Favreau's old television talk show Dinner For Five. Favreau has attempted to capture the same experience with a series of cast interviews he conducted for The Huffington Post [1] to promote Cowboys & Aliens. The first interview is with his film's co-star Harrison Ford. Ford is notoriously a dry/bad interview: I've heard many horror stories from my colleagues -- he loves to work but seems to hate talking/promoting his films. But Favreau was able to get Ford's A-game and get him to open up about his work over the years. You can watch the video interview clips embedded after the jump.
