Max Evry (Stranded on Earth: How Night Skies Became E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial)

We interview author and journalist Max Evry (A Masterpiece in Disarray: David Lynch’s Dune) about his latest book Stranded on Earth: How Night Skies Became E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.

Among other things, we discuss the challenges of booking interview subjects, how the premise of Night Skies led to the creation of Steven Spielberg’s (Munich, The Terminal) E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, and our thoughts on the trailer for Denis Villeneuve’s (Blade Runner 2049, Polytechnique) highly anticipated Dune: Part Three.
