Nebraska, the highly anticipated new film of the American director of Greek descent Alexander Payne, hits the theaters on Nov. 15. His black-and-white road movie narrates the story between a father and his son. Woody Grant, played by Bruce Dern having won the lottery, reunites with his son David (Will Forte) and together they cross the Midwest in order to claim the money.
In an interview with The National Herald, the acclaimed director of such introspective and dark humor, satirical films as Sideways, The Descendants, About Schmidt and Election, talks about his choices for subjects and how he'd like to be known as a great director, not just compared to them.
The son of Greek immigrants (his grandfather changed the surname from Papadopoulos) is getting great reviews for his new film.
